Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2007.05.16. Roger S. Bagnall, Hellenistic and Roman Egypt. Variorum Collected Studies Series. Aldershot: Ashgate, 2006.

Reviewed by Pablo Ubierna and Diego M. Santos, Medieval Research, CONICET Buenos Aires.

"Here we have a single volume of work by Roger Bagnall in which he has, for a second time, published a collection of articles in the Variorum Series. These two volumes, along with the collection of articles by Sir L. Kirwan (Studies on the History of Late Antique and Christian Nubia, edited by T. Hägg, L. Török, and D. A. Websley, 2002) and by L. S. B. MacCoull (Coptic Perspectives on Late Antiquity, 1993), are the most important texts about the Nile Valley in Roman Times published by Ashgate."
