Review
P. Burton: “Although I question the editors’ premise that the uniquely Roman ritual of the triumph indicates that the Romans suffered from a ‘victory disease’ to an exceptional degree within the Mediterranean system they inhabited (...), they have compiled an interesting, thought-provoking suite of papers.” The Journal of Roman Studies 2017/107, 352-354.
J. H. Clark: “Although each of the twelve chapters can stand alone, the introduction frames the whole as a series of interrelated case studies in response to recent approaches to the Roman triumph and ancient military history more broadly.” The Classical Review 2017/67/1, 172-174.
F. K. Drogula: “The diversity of topics makes this book particularly interesting and engaging, and there is a great deal that will interest historians of all periods of Republican Rome.” Bryn Mawr Classical Review, 2016/03/40.
C. Reitzenstein-Ronning: “Overall, the contributions offer a worthwhile read with plausible interpretations and a consistently high standard.” Historical magazine 2017/305, 498-500.
T. Shahin: “The dimensions of the unwieldy book format alone (about A4) could make it physically difficult to include the anthology on some shelves with collections on the Roman Republic: However, if the possibility exists, an extension of the shelf height is worthwhile.” Latomus 2017/76/3, 861-863.

Review
E. Nuti: “L'elegante volume, molto ben curato da M. P. raduna diversi pregevoli contributi raggruppati in tre macro-sezioni, rispettivamente dedicate al rapporto dell'intellettuale con Roma, alle forme e funzioni dell'Accademia Romana del pieno Rinascimento e a caratteristiche e significati delle esperienze delle varie accademie danesi di secondo Cinquecento e primo Seicento.” MEG 2013/13, 279-281.
D. Porreca: “In sum, at its best, this volume presents valuable reassessments of previous scholarship relating to Renaissance academies, as well as calling attention to some details of the philological analysis current in Pomponio Leto's group in Rome. Elsewhere, however, this book offers a somewhat incohesive snapshot of materials only tangentially or analogously relating to the core of the volume”. Sixteenth Century Journal 2014/45/1, 247-248.
B. Stenuit: “Humanist circles spread in Italy in the second half of the 15th century; since they took Antiquity as a model, academia designates them, in competition with other terms, as sodalitas (litteratorum), but academia can refer to a studium.” Latomus 2014/73/3, 864-864.

R. Chevallier: “These proceedings of a conference held at the Danish Institute in Rome in January 1993 contain 14 papers.” Belgian Journal of Philology and History 1996/74/1, 180.
P. Desy: “This volume is an unchanged reprint of the 1997 edition of the proceedings of a symposium on Roman agrarian economy held at the Danish Institute in Rome in 1993.” Classical Antiquity 2003/72, 567-568.
E. Fentress: “This conference volume contains an interesting if somewhat heterogeneous collection of papers from historians and archaeologists of the Roman countryside. Although the title suggests a more general treatment of the Empire, in practice the papers refer almost exclusively to Italy and Africa Proconsularis, with Philippe Leveau's short introduction to his work around the Etang de Berre the only geographic outlier.” Journal of Roman Studies 1996/86, 210-211.
P. Jaliette: “A large-scale project to which the collective work edited by Jesper Carlsen contributes, which deals in a stimulating way with topics as diverse as the natural environment, agrarian structure, the cultivation system, the landscape, all difficult questions whose study requires the mobilisation of all disciplines.” Northern Review 1997/79, 194-199.
C. Moatti: “The book edited by J. Carlsen is a new demonstration of this: sharp articles and an explicit rejection of any synthesis, on the pretext that many aspects remain debatable. The result is no less exciting because of the quality of the contributions and the diversity of the insights.” Revue historique de droit français et étranger (1922-) 1998/76/1, 96-97.
J. N. Robert: “In all, fourteen complementary papers to fuel «fruitful debate» in the editors” own words. But, as they themselves admit, we still know too little to write a history of agriculture in the Roman world, especially as far as late Romanisation is concerned." Latomus 1997/56/3, 694-695.

J. Debergh: “A. Moneti, La Santa Sofia di Giustiniano e il Tempio del Sole di Aureliano (...) presents solid arguments to affirm that the Constantinopolitan church derives directly from the monument erected in 274 by Aurelian (...), whose appearance has been preserved in graphic documents from the 16th and early 17th centuries.” Latomus 1995/54/4, 956-956.

Francis: “Cette chronique des fouilles des fouilles danoises (1976-1978) de La Giostra, colline fortifiée à 14 km au sud-est de Rome, commence par le classique chapitre consacré à la description topographie et toponymique du site, ainsi qu’à l’historique de sa découverte.” Belgian Journal of Philology and History 1996/74/1, 244-245.

Review
J. Debergh: “The new volume of the organ of the Danish Institute in Rome has several articles on ancient, Etruscan and Roman Italy.” Latomus 1992/51/4, 949-950.
H. Dodge: “It is well-illustrated with clear photographs and diagrams and includes some illuminating eighteenth-century engraving of the site. The dating of the structure to the time of Trajan is discussed in the light of evicence from stamped bricks and lead pipes.” The Journal of Roman Studies 1994/84, 190-191.
H. Manderscheid: “In cinque capitoli viene dato, sulla base dei più vecchi e dei recenti scavi dell'Autore, un quadro completo dell'edificio e della sua funzione. I due contributi aggiunti alla fine del libro (...) completano questo quadro.” Archeologia Classica 1995/47, 369-374.
F. Sacchi: “Considerata per lungo tempo e a torto come parte della domus aurea neroniana, la cisterna del complesso delle terme di Traiano, designata sin dal XVI sec. con il termine improprio di ‘Sette Sale’, diviene oggetto in questo volume di uno studio complessivo,frutto di un esame comparato tra dati plani metrici, tecnici e funzionali.” Aevum 1993/67/1, 235-235.
H. Solin: “Insomma, due volumi [this and the 20th volume] ben riusciti.” Acta Philologica Fennica 1994/28, 181.

Review
O. Buchsenschutz: “Whether historian or archaeologist, the non-specialist of this period will, I believe, like the author of these lines, benefit from the examples of a fruitful dialogue between texts and the field, between Italy and Northern Europe. The specialist will find, in addition to an abundant biography, the direct confrontation of contradictory theses, a fruitful and stimulating dialogue.” RA 1992/1.
F. Canaccini: “A panorama worthy of the highest interest.” Salesianum 1994/56/4, 760.
A. Dierkens: “This volume is part of an impressive series of works on the Early Middle Ages that have appeared over the last ten years, and is notable for the generally high quality of the articles, some of which are destined to make their mark in historiography (H. Steuer, in particular), and for the attention given to a careful critique of the most recent archaeological sources.” Classical Antiquity 1996/65, 619-620.
T. Vermeeren: “This book, which is to be classed among the happy attempts because of the quality of its writing and the homogeneity of the subjects treated, is the final result of a symposium held in January 1987 under the auspices of the Danish Academy in Rome, in collaboration with the British Academy and the Swedish Institute of Classical Studies.” Rahal, 1990.

R. Chevallier: “F. S. Johansen draws up an admirably illustrated inventory of ancient portraits (sculptures) of Julius Caesar: the study includes a review of literary sources concerning the appearance of the dictator, comparisons with coins, goldsmiths, gems, a list of texts mentioning statues of Caesar.” Latomus 1969/28/4, 1143-1144.
A. S. Gratwick: “This excellent book, well translated by Mrs L. Havrelied, while not dealing with any linguistic or textual matters beyond the strictly relevant, and confining itself to the first book, is a landmark in Varronian studies.” The Classical Review 1970/20/1, 36-38.
D. Knecht: “Although his study is limited in principle to Book I of the Res rusticae ,
M. Skydsgaard manages to give a good overview of Varron's fascinating personality alongside the always interesting detailed observations, and better still, he is able to convey to the reader some of the sympathy that this much-maligned polygrapher inspires in him.” Classical Antiquity 1969/38/1, 248-249.
