In the late Republic and early Imperial periods, villas are inseparable from elite lifestyles, providing a prestigious setting for leisurely and intellectual pursuits. But how did these advanced buildings come about? Roman Republican Villas examines key aspects of early villa culture and architecture, with the goal of understanding the development and deployment of villas in Republican Italy. For instance, where does the "classic" villa architecture originate? How do writers like Cato the Elder or Varro use the villa to their own advantage? How visible are Republican villas in the landscape of central Italy? Traditional theories about villa development have been largely focused on stereotypical ideals of early Roman austerity and industriousness. New work at sites such as the Auditorium, however, proves the existence of luxurious residences alrea$$ady by the 5th-4th c. BCE, even before the Roman conquest of Italy. Such recent developments in archaeological fieldwork have begun to reshape the discourse in such a way that old assumptions are being challenged and, in many cases, found wanting. Within this atmosphere of new discoveries and reconsideration, scholars are uniquely poised to re-examine the villa and the part it played in the culture of Roman Italy, in terms of both the material remains and the literary sources. The villa also plays a prominent role in Republican literature such as the De agri cultura of Cato and the texts of Varro, as the early Latin authors seek to fashion identities for themselves and the city of Rome. Drawing on diverse source materials, the collected essays of Roman Republican Villas help to re-center the discussion of Roman villa culture, particularly in light of new evidence offered both by fieldwork and by new approaches to Republican agricultural writers. This volume brings together scholars of L$$aatin literature, Roman history, and classical archaeology to offer a multidisciplinary approach to the questions connected to the emergence and development of villas and their farming culture. With contributions from leading scholars Jeffrey A. Becker, John Bodel, Stephen L. Dyson, Carin M.C. Green, Brendon Reay, Nicola Terrenato, Mario Torelli, and Rita Volpe, the viewpoints offered build upon previous scholarship and ask challenging questions about how the evidence of Roman villas has traditionally been interpreted. 001380660 60010 $$aCato, Marcus Porcius,$$d234 B.C.-149 B.C.$$tDe agri cultura. 001380660 60014 $$aCato, Marcus Porcius,$$d234-149 B.C..$$tDe agricultura. 001380660 60017 $$aCato, Marcus Porcius,$$d234 B.C.-149 B.C.$$tDe agri cultura.$$2nli 001380660 63007 $$aDe agri cultura (Cato, Marcus Porcius)$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01359183 001380660 63007 $$aBibel$$pRömerbrief$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4075940-4 001380660 648_7 $$a265-30 B.C.$$2fast 001380660 650_0 $$aDwellings$$zRome$$xHistory. 001380660 650_0 $$aArchitecture, Domestic$$zRome$$xHistory. 001380660 650_0 $$aLandscape architecture$$zRome$$xHistory. 001380660 650_7 $$aAntiquities.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00810745 001380660 650_7 $$aArchitecture, Domestic.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00813666 001380660 650_7 $$aBuildings.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00840962 001380660 650_7 $$aClassical antiquities.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00863445 001380660 650_7 $$aDwellings.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00899978 001380660 650_7 $$aLandscape architecture.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00991814 001380660 650_7 $$aManners and customs.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01007815 001380660 650_7 $$aRömerzeit$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4076769-3 001380660 650_7 $$aArchitektur$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4002851-3 001380660 650_7 $$aVilla$$2gnd$$0(DE-588)4063532-6 001380660 650_7 $$aVilla.$$2idszbz 001380660 650_7 $$aDwellings$$zRome$$xHistory.$$2nli 001380660 650_7 $$aArchitecture, Domestic$$zRome$$xHistory.$$2nli 001380660 650_7 $$aLandscape architecture$$zRome$$xHistory.$$2nli 001380660 651_0 $$aRome$$xAntiquities. 001380660 651_0 $$aRome (Italy)$$xAntiquities, Roman. 001380660 651_0 $$aRome (Italy)$$xBuildings, structures, etc. 001380660 651_0 $$aRome$$xSocial life and customs. 001380660 651_0 $$aRome (Italy)$$xSocial life and customs. 001380660 651_0 $$aRome$$xHistory$$yRepublic, 265-30 B.C. 001380660 651_7 $$aItaly$$zRome.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01204500 001380660 651_7 $$aRome (Empire)$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01204885 001380660 651_7 $$aItalien.$$2idszbz 001380660 651_7 $$aRome$$xAntiquities.$$2nli 001380660 651_7 $$aRome (Italy)$$xAntiquities, Roman.$$2nli 001380660 651_7 $$aRome$$xSocial life and customs.$$2nli 001380660 651_7 $$aRome$$xHistory$$yRepublic, 265-30 B.C.$$2nli 001380660 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001380660 7001_ $$aBecker, Jeffrey A.,$$d1976- 001380660 7001_ $$aTerrenato, Nicola. 001380660 830_0 $$aPapers and monographs of the American Academy in Rome ;$$vv. 32. 001380660 852__ $$bgen 001380660 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1380660$$pGLOBAL_SET 001380660 980__ $$aBIB 001380660 980__ $$aBOOK 001380660 994__ $$aC0$$bISE
