"La città meglio governata tra quelle greche". A proposito di N. Badoud, Le temps de Rhodes. Une chronologie des inscriptions de la cité fondée sur l'étude de ses institutions

The monograph by Nathan Badoud (Le temps de Rhodes. Une chronologie des inscriptions de la cité fondée sur l’étude de ses institutions) focuses on the institutions of Rhodes, which had been greatly admired by the ancients, with particular interest in the chronological aspects and close study of the island’s vast epigraphic heritage. Among the many themes addressed, a number of aspects are picked out and examined in depth to convey an idea of the wealth of material in a work that, in reach and systematic treatment, stands out in a long tradition of studies, representing a cornerstone in the scientific literature on Rhodes and, in general, on the Hellenistic-Roman world.
