Book The Parthian Stations  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Parthian Stations Classic Reprint written by Isidore of Charax and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-29 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Parthian Stations We may infer that the author of the Journey Around Parth'a, meaning the Parthian Empire, described both these important over land highways. Ir is very regrettable that his work should have perished except in fugitive quotations, and that we have remaining only a brief itinerary of the northern route. The policy of the Roman Empire during the two centuries following the Christian era was to encourage direct sea trade with India, cutting out all overland routes through Parthia and thus avoiding the annoyance of fiscal dependence on that consistent enemy of Rome.

Book Empires of Ancient Eurasia

    Book Details:
  • Author : Craig Benjamin
  • Publisher : Cambridge University Press
  • Release : 2018-05-03
  • ISBN : 1108635407
  • Pages : 318 pages

Download or read book Empires of Ancient Eurasia written by Craig Benjamin and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Silk Roads are the symbol of the interconnectedness of ancient Eurasian civilizations. Using challenging land and maritime routes, merchants and adventurers, diplomats and missionaries, sailors and soldiers, and camels, horses and ships, carried their commodities, ideas, languages and pathogens enormous distances across Eurasia. The result was an underlying unity that traveled the length of the routes, and which is preserved to this day, expressed in common technologies, artistic styles, cultures and religions, and even disease and immunity patterns. In words and images, Craig Benjamin explores the processes that allowed for the comingling of so many goods, ideas, and diseases around a geographical hub deep in central Eurasia. He argues that the first Silk Roads era was the catalyst for an extraordinary increase in the complexity of human relationships and collective learning, a complexity that helped drive our species inexorably along a path towards modernity.

Book Rome  Parthia  and the Politics of Peace

Download or read book Rome Parthia and the Politics of Peace written by Jason M. Schlude and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-01-13 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers an informed survey of the problematic relationship between the ancient empires of Rome and Parthia from c. 96/95 BCE to 224 CE. Schlude explores the rhythms of this relationship and invites its readers to reconsider the past and our relationship with it. Some have looked to this confrontation to help explain the roots of the long-lived conflict between the West and the Middle East. It is a reading symptomatic of most scholarship on the subject, which emphasizes fundamental incompatibility and bellicosity in Roman–Parthian relations. Rather than focusing on the relationship as a series of conflicts, Rome, Parthia, and the Politics of Peace responds to this common misconception by highlighting instead the more cooperative elements in the relationship and shows how a reconciliation of these two perspectives is possible. There was, in fact, a cyclical pattern in the Roman–Parthian interaction, where a reality of peace and collaboration became overshadowed by images of aggressive posturing projected by powerful Roman statesmen and emperors for a domestic population conditioned to expect conflict. The result was the eventual realization of these images by later Roman opportunists who, unsatisfied with imagined war, sought active conflict with Parthia. Rome, Parthia, and the Politics of Peace is a fascinating new study of these two superpowers that will be of interest not only to students of Rome and the Near East but also to anyone with an interest in diplomatic relations and conflict in the ancient world and today.
