Download or read book Rome and the north western Mediterranean written by Toni Ñaco del Hoyo and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2022-11-30 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To date, Rome’s intervention to the West from the mid-second century BC has not really been looked at with any sense of overview. Instead, there has been an unconnected series of micro-regional studies looking at particular areas, from the river Ebro in Spain round to Italy on the land front, and from the Balearic Islands to Corsica, Sardinia and even Sicily as regards the seaborne aspect. In contrast, the aim of this volume is to push the historical and archaeological debates about Rome’s expansion beyond these traditional geographical boundaries and the discipline-based previous research. The entire north-western Mediterranean is treated as a micro-region and is addressed using various interdisciplinary approaches. The result is to provide an innovative and comprehensive overview of the north-western Mediterranean in a period of historical crossroads, aided particularly by focusing on the connectivity and integration within this region as two interrelated issues. While Republican Rome enforced itself as an expansive power towards the West, all sorts of polities, military operations and individuals also played a significant role in creating interconnectivity and integration of the north-western Mediterranean into a new hybrid reality. In order to uncover such processes of hybridisation, contributors to this volume were encouraged to focus on the historical, archaeological and numismatic material from several areas within the region, and to incorporate aspects of interdisciplinary methodologies in order to address the region’s military, political, social and economic interconnections with Italy, Rome and each other within the overall period.
Download or read book What Was the Islamic Conquest of Iberia written by Hussein Fancy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-07 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Was the Islamic Conquest of Iberia? Understanding the New Debate brings together leading scholars to offer an introduction to a recent debate with far-reaching implications for the study of history, as well as our understanding of the present. In the year 711 CE, Islamic armies conquered the Iberian Peninsula. This seemingly uncontroversial claim has in fact been questioned, becoming an object of intense scholarly debate, debate that has reached a fevered pitch in recent decades within Spain. This volume introduces an anglophone audience to the terms and contours of this controversy, from its emergence in the late nineteenth century to its contemporary recrudescence. It suggests that far from an abstract discussion, this dispute reveals methodological and moral questions that remain vital to the study of the distant past, questions than cannot be easily resolved and have far-reaching consequences for the present. This volume offers novel perspectives on, not only the controversy, but also the latest research on the events of 711. These exemplary studies of historical, literary, and material cultural evidence demonstrate the promise and challenges for a new generation of scholarship. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the Journal of Medieval Iberian Studies.

Download or read book The Roman West AD 200 500 written by Simon Esmonde Cleary and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-03-07 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and analyses the development of the Roman West from Gibraltar to the Rhine, using primarily the extensive body of published archaeological evidence rather than the textual evidence underlying most other studies. It situates this development within a longer-term process of change, proposing the later second century rather than the 'third-century crisis' as the major turning-point, although the latter had longer-term consequences owing to the rise in importance of military identities. Elsewhere, more 'traditional' forms of settlement and display were sustained, to which was added the vocabulary of Christianity. The longer-term rhythms are also central to assessing the evidence for such aspects as rural settlement and patterns of economic interaction. The collapse of Roman imperial authority emphasised trends such as militarisation and regionalisation along with economic and cultural disintegration. Indicators of 'barbarian/Germanic' presence are reassessed within such contexts and the traditional interpretations questioned and alternatives proposed.

Book excerpt: "Cet ouvrage regroupe les communications présentées à l'occasion du 5' colloque de la série " Villa " consacrée depuis 2004 à la Marche Supérieure d'al-Andalus et, dans une perspective plus large, à l'Occident méditerranéen du haut Moyen Âge. Pour cette nouvelle rencontre associant historiens des textes et archéologues, l'accent a été mis sur les données numismatiques et les découvertes monétaires en péninsule Ibérique et au Maghreb. Organisée à la Casa de Velàzquez à Madrid, en février 2014. avec l'appui de plusieurs laboratoires de recherches, la réunion a permis d'éclairer l'importance des informations fournies par les monnaies à l'égard de la conquête et des premiers temps de la présence musulmane dans l'Occident méditerranéen, sous la forme de dinars, de dirhams ou de fulüs antérieurs au XIe siècle. Complétée par de riches comparaisons avec les monnayages de l'époque wisigothique et de la Sicile byzantine. L'ensemble proposé constitue une somme de connaissances précieuse pour quiconque s'intéresse à l'histoire politique et économique avant l'an mil aux portes de l'Occident chrétien."--P. [4] of cover.
Download or read book Roman Aristocrats in Barbarian Gaul written by Ralph Mathisen and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Skin-clad barbarians ransacking Rome remains a popular image of the "decline and fall" of the Roman Empire, but why, when, and how the Empire actually fell are still matters of debate among students of classical history. In this pioneering study, Ralph W. Mathisen examines the "fall" in one part of the western Empire, Gaul, to better understand the shift from Roman to Germanic power that occurred in the region during the fifth century AD Mathisen uncovers two apparently contradictory trends. First, he finds that barbarian settlement did provoke significant changes in Gaul, including the disappearance of most secular offices under the Roman imperial administration, the appropriation of land and social influence by the barbarians, and a rise in the overall level of violence. Yet he also shows that the Roman aristocrats proved remarkably adept at retaining their rank and status. How did the aristocracy hold on? Mathisen rejects traditional explanations and demonstrates that rather than simply opposing the barbarians, or passively accepting them, the Roman aristocrats directly responded to them in various ways. Some left Gaul. Others tried to ignore the changes wrought by the newcomers. Still others directly collaborated with the barbarians, looking to them as patrons and holding office in barbarian governments. Most significantly, however, many were willing to change the criteria that determined membership in the aristocracy. Two new characteristics of the Roman aristocracy in fifth-century Gaul were careers in the church and greater emphasis on classical literary culture. These findings shed new light on an age in transition. Mathisen's theory that barbarian integration into Roman society was a collaborative process rather than a conquest is sure to provoke much thought and debate. All historians who study the process of power transfer from native to alien elites will want to consult this work.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Del “imperium a la auctoritas” es un homenaje a Michael Grant, quien en 1946 publicaba su célebre libro sobre la oscura historia romana entre César y Augusto, basado esencialmente en las emisiones monetarias imperiales de Ae. “From Imperium to Auctoritas” es un libro que ha provocado múltiples replanteamientos y un avance importante en el conocimiento de este periodo. Las novedades surgidas en diferentes disciplinas epigráficas, literarias y arqueológicas, las mismas que utilizó M. Grant para arropar sus propuestas numismáticas, han dado lugar a la organización de un coloquio celebrado en Zaragoza en mayo del 2007. Este libro recoge las aportaciones de tal coloquio unido a contribuciones posteriores con el objeto de presentar novedades arqueológicas y replanteamientos históricos valiosos sobre este periodo.
