This volume explores the role paratexts (e.g. indices, prefaces, inter-titles, end-statements) play in our reading and interpretation of Roman literary, visual and epigraphic texts. It proposes a new direction in the criticism of Roman textual structure, as well as a new understanding of its ancient and modern forms of reception.
