B: Focus is reconsideration of evidence for how Strabo is positioned as an author in relation to Roman world
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Key question: Is Strabo inside / outside Roman world? Is he more “hellenistic” than Roman?
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Roman world in life of Strabo is *not* static – is developing and changing.
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Strabo’s outlook, based on geography is him as a geographer – history is him as a historian. These are different.
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Historical work plausibly included a sequel to Polybius – question is what is the other terminus? When did he close his history?
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Strabo from a Greek family that was politically engaged in Anatolia when the Romans started involvement in the East.

B’s discussion of Amasya reminds me of ancient borderlands
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Opinion has swung between Strabo as peripheral observer of the Roman world or as a metropolitan figure aligned w / Augustan principate.
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Thinks the writer of the entry in the Suda knows no more about Strabo than we do (possibly even less!)
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: On balance, Strabo’s name probably given at birth or acquired soon after, reflecting parental choice.
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: However, the choice of Strabo does betray some Roman political / cultural influence.
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Does demonstrate Strabo was born into an area that was bicultural – Roman and Greek.
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Thinks it is safe to say Strabo was, however, an outsider in terms of Roman power

B: Strabo’s history disappears by 2nd / 3rd century, geography is a slow burner – quoted extensively after.
— Ryan Horne (@RyanMHorne) March 28, 2017
B: Thinks Strabo’s history became politically irrelevant; therefore not as focused on Roman history.
