"Time and Antiquity in American Empire is a fascinating inquiry into the multiple — and often unexpected — ways in which Roman analogies are germane to US imperial discourse. It is undoubtedly a major intervention in the political history of classical models, and it makes a compelling contribution to our understanding of transatlantic historical time." - Ronan Ludot-Vlasak, Transatlantica

"Time and Antiquity in American Empire asks us to reimagine the ways we might undertake comparative literature, by, as Walter Benjamin invokes, 'grasp[ing] the constellation which [our] own era has formed with a definite earlier one' in an analogical network of dynamic, overlapping and ever-unfurling significance." - Andrew Taylor, The Review of English Studies
