This book analyses Pliny the Elder's Natural History as a textual unit - its 37 volumes - based on the idea of Romanity founded on Greco-Roman culture and the problem of identities in Antiquity. In the first century, in an increasingly multicultural and multiethnic Empire, the Pax provided by the rise of the Flavian dynasty extended the process of Romanisation, in which Pliny participated as an intellectual in the circle of power.
