520 |a This brilliantly conceived and magisterially executed book deserves to attract a readership from well beyond the relatively small circles of calendar specialists and aficionados. Every classicist, ancient historian, and patristics scholar encounters in the evidence calendar dates expressed as month and day in one or more of the many local calendars of Mediterranean antiquity. Sacha Stern provides a succint but comprehensive explanation of every one of those calendrical systems, although not in a single volume a detailed description of every known local calendar., The author presents this material within a larger interpretative framework that understands calendars as constitutive of society and culture, rather than merely as functional instruments.
