Pausanias, the Greek historian and traveler, lived and wrote around
the second century AD, during the period when Greece had fallen
peacefully to the Roman Empire. While fragments from this period
abound, Pausanias' _Periegesis_ ("description") of Greece is the only
fully preserved text of travel writing to have survived. This
collection uses Pausanias as a multifaceted lens yielding
indispensable information about the cultural world of Roman Greece.
