Studies in Ancient Civil War

The new book series Studies in Ancient Civil War (StACW) provides a unique and timely academic forum for exploring the processes and implications of civil war in antiquity, from factionalization and destructive internal strife to reintegration and reconstruction. Interconnecting historical, philological, and archaeological perspectives, this peer-reviewed series covers the wider Mediterranean world and the Near East from the second millennium BCE through the first millennium CE. It seeks to deepen our understanding of the profound impact that the collapse and reconstruction of political orders in civil wars had on ancient societies. The series welcomes outstanding monographs and edited volumes which explore any given aspect of the complex nature of ancient civil war (including its wider socio-political, cultural, and ideological implications), and which examine its lasting reverberations throughout time.


Book proposals can be sent either to the series editors Henning Börm, Carsten Hjort Lange, and Johannes Wienand (editor-in-chief), or directly to De Gruyter.
