Riparia, here encompassing both river banks and shorelines, represent inherently unstable landscapes, but which have proved of fundamental importance to human activities. These essays look at Roman responses to riparian environments, presenting regional case-studies, and analysing attempts to manage these landscapes, as well as their depiction in legal, agronomic and literary contexts.
