Published for the Society for the Promotion of Roman Studies
The Journal of Roman Studies (JRS) has appeared annually for a century, and is recognised internationally as one of the premier journals in its field. The Journal publishes papers in the wide field which the Roman Society was established to promote, namely ‘the study of the history, archaeology, literature, and art of Italy and the Roman Empire, from the earliest times down to about A.D. 700’. JRS welcomes submissions from across the full range of that field, including interdisciplinary approaches and reception. The key criterion for publication is that papers make a fresh and significant contribution to the understanding of the Roman world, and have the potential to stimulate further discussion. JRS also publishes Review Articles, surveying recent developments, and reviews of a wide selection of important new books in all scholarly languages.
