Bio/Research
Saller’s research has concentrated on Roman social and economic history, in particular patronage relations, the family and the imperial economy. He uses literary, legal and epigraphic materials to investigate issues of social hierarchy, gender distinctions and economic production with the aid of current social science theory. He taught at the University of Chicago beginning in 1984, became dean of the Social Sciences Division in 1994, and provost in 2002. Prior to Chicago, he was an assistant professor at Swarthmore College. He has held visiting professorships and fellowships at the University of California, Berkeley and Jesus College, Cambridge.
