Strazdins uses literature, inscriptions, and art to explore the relationship of elite Greeks of the Roman imperial period to time. She establishes that imperial Greek temporality was more complex than previously allowed by detailing how cultural output used the past to position itself within tradition but was crafted to speak to the future.
