He was a lecturer at the University of Heidelberg, but was closely linked to Spain and specifically to Tarragona. Among other mentions, and sticking only to Spanish institutions, he was <em>Doctor honoris causa<\/em> by the Universities of Barcelona and Rovira i Virgili of Tarragona, corresponding member for Germany of the Real Academia de la Historia de Madrid, of the Institut d'Estudis Catalans (Barcelona), of the Real Sociedad Arqueol\u00f3gica (Tarragona) and of the Asociaci\u00f3n Interdisciplinar de Estudios Romanos (Madrid).<\/p>\n<p style='text-align: justify'>Among his more than 40 monographs and nearly 500 articles, we can highlight his studies on Roman epigraphy from <em>Hispania<\/em> and <em>Tarraco<\/em> (initiated with his must-see work<em>&nbsp; Die r\u00f6mischen inschriften von Tarraco,<\/em>Berlin, 1975), his <em>Social history of Rome<\/em> (the first edition of which dates from 1975 -<em>R\u00f6mische Sozialgeschichte<\/em>Wiesbaden - but known to the Spanish public from its Spanish version of 1987, with subsequent reprints) and the updating and reprinting of the <em>Corpus inscriptionum latinarum,<\/em> a work that compiles all the Latin inscriptions of antiquity.<\/p>\n<p style='text-align: justify'>As far as Alicante is concerned, his most notable work dates from 2003 and is his work \"Administraci\u00f3n, urbanizaci\u00f3n, instituciones, vida p\u00fablica y orden social\", in which he refers to the administrative framework in which the municipalities and colonies of the current province of Alicante were founded in Roman times, as well as their internal organisation and functioning. This work was published in the journal <em>Canelobre<\/em> 48, dedicated monographically to the cities and countryside of Alicante in Roman times and edited by J. M. Abascal and L.
