The book had its genesis in Smith’s Harvard dissertation submitted in 1980, but its content developed over the years as Smith pursued his interest in the banquet as a social institution that cut across ethnic and class boundaries, playing a pivotal role in political, social and religious occasions in Greco-Roman antiquity. |
