This book was released on 1990-01-01T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sous le Haut Empire, les provinces d'Afrique et de Numidie n'ont été défendues, la plupart du temps, que par une légion et ses auxiliaires. La célèbre IIIe Légion Auguste est déjà bien connue ; les unités auxiliaires le sont moins. Pourtant, leur rôle fut loin d'être négligeable. Recrutées à partir de contingents venus d'autres régions, de la Pannonie à Palmyre, ou chez les Africains eux-mêmes, leurs garnisons, déployées jusqu'aux confins du désert, relayaient l'action de la Légion. Dans les territoires qu'elles contrôlaient, toutes ont joué un rôle, certes fondamentalement militaire, mais aussi politique, socio-économique et culturel. S'il présente d'abord chacune des unités, Yann Le Bohec s'attache ensuite à dégager leur action collective, dans des domaines aussi divers que la stratégie et la tactique, l'attachement à l'empereur et les événements de 238, tout autant que le recrutement et les salaires, la diffusion du latin, les cultes pratiqués, la "barbarisation" des auxiliaires... Yann Le Bohec enseigne l'Histoire ancienne à l'Université Jean Moulin Lyon III. Historien soucieux d'épigraphie et d'archéologie, il a publié de nombreux travaux sur l'Afrique du Nord et sur l'armée romaine, en particulier : "L'archéologie militaire de l'Afrique du Nord", "La IIIe Légion Auguste" et "L'armée romaine sous le Haut Empire".

Download or read book Imperial Mines and Quarries in the Roman World written by Alfred Michael Hirt and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2010-03-25 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The control over marble and metal resources was of major importance to the Roman Empire. The emperor's freedmen and slaves, officers and soldiers of the Roman army, equestrian officials, as well as convicts and free labour were seconded to mines and quarries throughout Rome's vast realm. Alfred Hirt's comprehensive study defines the organizational outlines and the internal structures of the mining and quarrying ventures under imperial control. The themes addressed include: challenges faced by those in charge of these extractive operations; the key figures, their subaltern personnel and their respective responsibilities; the role of the Roman army; the use of civilian partners in quarrying or mining ventures; and the position of the quarrying or mining organizations within the framework of the imperial administration.
Download or read book Greek Texts and Armenian Traditions written by Francesca Gazzano and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2016-08-22 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An interdisciplinary approach, crucial as it is in most fields of research, proves itself to be unescapable in the study of interactions between the ancient Armenian and Greek worlds and literatures. The volume arises from such an awareness and collects papers presented in a conference which has been organized in 2013 at the University of Genova, thanks to a cooperation with the Université Paris-Sorbonne, following in the footsteps of a tradition inaugurated by Giancarlo Bolognesi in the years '80 and '90. The subject is explored from many points of view: the topic of Armenian translations of Greek texts – with considerations of a methodological nature and the discussion of case-studies –, aspects which pertain to the historical context and the historiographical sources, the wide theme of the Armenian reception of Biblical, Christian and Byzantine literature, and finally philological, linguistic and lexical problems. The aim of this kind of research is to exploit the cooperation among classical philologists, linguists and Armenologists, in order to face the challenge of investigating a subject which requires many different competences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This well-documented study of the Roman army provides a crucial aid to understanding the Roman Empire in economic, social and political terms. Employing numerous examples, Brian Campbell explores the development of the Roman army and the expansion of the Roman Empire from 31 BC-280 AD.
