| 520 | |a This book, which derives from a conference held in 2013 in Leicester, reflects the recent development in North African studies of focusing on the region's pre-Roman phase and its many local afterlives throughout the Imperial period. As the editors put it, their main goal is to concentrate on North Africa's "local peoples". There are papers dealing with material from Egypt, eastern Libya, and North Africa, and a balance between young scholars and well-known specialists; however, of 19 papers 11 are by U.K.- or U.S.-based scholars, 7 by Italian authors, with only 2 authors from North Africa itself. The overall theoretical approach still navigates the waters of established, but problematic, binary models: external powers on the one hand and Indigenous groups on the other. The book contains many important contributions presenting new material and interesting hypotheses. De Africa Romaque--as is the case with most conference publications--casts both light and shadows. Its quick publication demonstrates that "local peoples" have finally found their legitimate place in North African studies and are perceived as a fruitful field of research today, even for young scholars. However, we need more local studies and theoretical and terminological reflection on the multilingual material evidence if we are to intelligently judge the larger cultural developments. | ||
