Download or read book Fronti res et limites g ographiques de l Afrique du Nord antique written by Claude Lepelley and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nul mieux que ce livre n'affirme que l'espace est aussi domaine des historiens, car la vie sociale, la vie administrative des groupements humains, leurs usages culturels aussi, s'inscrivent dans des territoires qui se juxtaposent, s'articulent, se singularisent, se chevauchent parfois. Les notions de frontières et de limites prennent alors tout leur sens. Quinze études et de riches discussions apportent ici des regards croisés et complémentaires sur l'Afrique du Nord antique. C'est également l'occasion de rendre hommage à Pierre Salama, non seulement épigraphiste et numismate, mais aussi spécialiste hors-pair de géographie historique. La Carte du réseau routier, diffusée en 1947, puis intégrée en 1951 au livre sur Les voies romaines de l'Afrique du Nord, a connu une brillante destinée, car elle a constamment servi de point d'appui au travail des historiens des nouvelles générations. Cette carte est une œuvre de synthèse, et d'abord une synthèse de l'espace, exprimée en réduction; mais elle synthétise aussi le temps, car les cités dont le nom apparaît ont duré de longs siècles, structurant fortement la vie politique et sociale des provinces romaines, et reflétant par leur apparition et leur permanence les changements dans les modes de vie.
Download or read book Early Christianity in North Africa written by Francois Decret and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2011-06-30 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martyrs, exegetes, catechumens, and councils enlarge this study of North African Christianity, a region often reduced to its dominant patristic personalities. Smither provides English readers a quality translation of an important book that captures the unique spirit of an invaluable chapter of church history. Along with the churches located in large Greek cities of the East, the church of Carthage was particularly significant in the early centuries of Christian history. Initially, the Carthaginian churchbecame known for its martyrs. Later, the North African church became further established and unified through the regular councils of its bishops. Finally, the church gained a reputation for its outstanding leaders - Tertullian of Carthage (c. 140-220), Cyprian of Carthage (195-258), and Augustine of Hippo (354-430) - African leaders who continued to be celebrated and remembered today.

Download or read book Law and Power written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-12-28 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Roman world, landscapes became legal and institutional constructions, being the core of social, political, religious, and economic life. The Romans developed ambitious urban transformations, seeking to equate civic monumentality and legal status. The built environment becomes the axis of the legal, administrative, sacred, and economic system and the main element of dissemination of imperial ideology. This volume follows the modern trend of a multifaceted, composite, multi-layered Roman world, but at the same time reduces its complexity. It views ‘Roman’ not only in the sense of power politics, but also in a cultural context. It highlights ‘landscapes’ and puts into the shadow important administrative and legal structures, i.e., individuals viz. local and imperial members of the elites living in cities, which ran the Roman world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La question sur l'Afrique " romaine ", mise au concours du Capes d'Histoire-Géographie et de l'agrégation d'Histoire, propose l'étude d'une région de l'Empire romain (entre 69 et 439 de notre ère). Elle permet d'aborder des questions essentielles de l'histoire antique du monde méditerranéen : celle de l'organisation des territoires passés sous la tutelle de Rome, celle des rapports avec les peuples dits indigènes, celle des transformations sociales et culturelles, au rang desquelles figure la christianisation de l'Afrique. L'étude s'étend sur une longue période, trois siècles et demi, et inclut tous les aspects de la vie et de l'histoire des provinces africaines. C'est cette diversité que nous avons voulu faire valoir. Le présent ouvrage est un ensemble de contributions rédigées par des spécialistes de chacune de ces questions historiques : sources, organisation politique et administrative, vie sociale, économique et religieuse, voies de la romanisation. Le volume est complété par des cartes hors-texte réalisées par André Buisson.

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of the Berbers Imazighen written by Hsain Ilahiane and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-27 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Berbers, also known as Imazighen, are the ancient inhabitants of North Africa, but rarely have they formed an actual kingdom or separate nation state. Ranging anywhere between 15-50 million, depending on how they are classified, the Berbers have influenced the culture and religion of Roman North Africa and played key roles in the spread of Islam and its culture in North Africa, Spain, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Taken together, these dynamics have over time converted to redefine the field of Berber identity and its socio-political representations and symbols, making it an even more important issue in the 21st century. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of the Berbers contains a chronology, an introduction, appendixes, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 200 cross-referenced entries on important personalities, places, events, institutions, and aspects of culture, society, economy, and politics. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about the Berbers.

Download or read book Roman Roads written by Anne Kolb and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-07-22 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume aims to present the current state of research on Roman roads and their foundations in a combined historical and archaeological perspective. The focus is on the diverse local histories and the varying degrees of significance of individual roads and regional networks, which are treated here for the most important regions of the empire and beyond. The assembled contributions will be of interest to historians, archaeologists and epigraphers, since they tackle matters as diverse as the technical modalities of road-building, the choice of route, but also the functionality and the motives behind the creation of roads. Roman roads are further intimately related to various important aspects of Roman history, politics and culture. After all, such logistical arteries form the basis of all communication and exchange processes, enabling not only military conquest and security but also facilitating the creation of an organized state as well as trade, food supply and cultural exchange. The study of Roman roads must always be based on a combination of written and archaeological sources in order to take into account both their concrete geographical location and their respective spatial, cultural, and historical context.
Download or read book The Roman Empress Ulpia Severina written by Margherita Cassia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-06-15 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of the twelve Augustae who lived during the fifty years of the so-called “military anarchy” (235-284 A.D.), Ulpia Severina, wife of the “Illyrian” emperor Aurelian (270-275 AD), is certainly one of the most enigmatic and less known. The book focuses on Ulpia Severina, who, even though never mentioned by name in literary sources, has been studied almost exclusively from the perspective of the numerous coins issued in her name and is the subject of many interesting honorific inscriptions that had not been thoroughly examined or adequately valued until this study. This exceptional situation, represented by the sole presence of Ulpia Severina on the throne of Rome, deserves more attention than it has received. The pages of the university history textbooks dedicated to the reconstruction of a fifty-year phase of Roman-imperial history must be, if not rewritten, at least integrated in order to give the deserved space to this empress and, therefore, to the so-called “interregnum,” which lasted at least two months, between the death of Aurelian and the advent of emperor Tacitus.
