"Roman Dress and the Fabrics of Roman Culture investigates the social symbolism and cultural poetics of dress in the ancient Roman world in the period from 200 BCE-400 CE." "The contributors to this volume explore the diffusion of Roman dress protocols in Rome and beyond by looking at Rome's North African provinces in particular, a focus that previous studies have overlooked or dealt with only in passing."--Jacket.
