One of the most polysemic Latin words, humanitas was a core concept in Roman society and has become very influential in Western culture. Notwithstanding, some periods in the long history of humanitas have been little studied, as is the case with most part of Roman imperial age. This book provides the first in-depth investigation of the role humanitas played in the works of pagan Latin authors from the late first until the late fourth century CE.
