Plot twists abound!By BekayAn excellent entry into the Marcus Didius Falco series.

  • A Roman and a Foreigner: Lindsey Davis's New Roman Detective Series
    CHAPTER 2 A Roman and a Foreigner: Lindsey Davis’s New Roman Detective Series Anat Koplowitz-Breier 1 Introduction In his preface to The Detective as Historian: History and Art in Historical Crime Fiction, Robin Winks argues that mystery and detective novels are the most popular fiction in the English-speaking world, with the historical mystery be- coming particularly prevalent.1 While the factors behind the latter’s rise to prominence are not easy to ascertain, the historical mystery combines two elements—history and crime/detective work. In the guise of the former, it “generally covers adventures of all kinds and deals with all aspects of culture”; as the latter, it “is concerned with the major drives of human life as highlighted by Margaret Atwood’s ‘crime and punishment’ and ‘sin and retribution’”.2 Thus at the same time as being exposed to the past the reader also deals with ev- eryday life and situations, historical crime fiction adducing the “past up to the present through the device of timeless crime … while at the same time retain- ing the atmosphere of the historical period”.3 This article focuses on Lindsey Davis’ new Roman detective series, which in some ways constitutes a sequel to her Falco series. As we shall see, the two series differ in their detective characterization, however—male vs. female, Roman vs. foreigner. Lindsey Davis’ first Roman detective novel, The Silver Pigs, starring the ‘informer’ Marcus Didius Falco, was published in 1989. As she ob- served in 2004: 1 Robin W. Winks, “Preface”, in R.B.
