520 8  In an ambitious overview of 1000 years of history, from 
       the formation of the city-state of Rome to the 
       establishment of a fully Christian culture, T.P. Wiseman 
       examines the evidence for the oral delivery of 
       'literature' to mass public audiences. The treatment is 
       chronological, utilising wherever possible contemporary 
       sources and the close reading of texts. Presenting the 
       history of Roman literature as an integral part of the 
       social and political history of the Roman people, he draws
       some unexpected inferences from the evidence that 
       survives. In particular, he emphasises the significance of
       the annual series of 'stage games', and reveals the 
       hitherto unexplored common ground of literature, drama and
       dance.
