YÜZYIL) Ahmet KÜTÜK Fırat Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Tarih Anabilim Dalı Genel Türk Tarihi Bilim Dalı ELAZIĞ – 2012, Sayfa: LIV+329 Nusaybin, bilinen tarihi Asurlular dönemine kadar uzanan kadim ve önemli bir şehirdir. Nemrut tarafından kurulduğu klasik kaynaklarda sıkça belirtilen bu şehir, antik dönem kaynaklarında da adı geçmekle birlikte Roma İmparatorluğu hâkimiyetine geçtikten sonra Mezopotamya’da bir sınır şehri olarak daha önemli ve stratejik bir rol üstlendi. İlk kez MÖ. 68 yılında Lucullus döneminde Romalılar Nusaybin’e sahip oldular. Sonraki dönemlerde Part ve Roma savaşlarının paylaşılamayan arazilerinden biri oldu ve bu süreçte Pers-Roma sınırında Roma ordularının askeri harekât üssü olarak önemli bir görev ifa etti. 363 Barışı akabinde Sasanilere terk edildikten sonra 507 yılında yeni istihkâm şehri Dara inşa edilinceye kadar Bizans İmparatorluğu doğu sınırında yaklaşık bir buçuk asırlık bir bocalama süreci geçirdi. Bizans imparatorluğu bu tarihten sonra Nusaybin’i ezeli rakibi Sasanilerden geri alamadı. Sasanilerin inkırazından sonra, imparatorluğun yeni rakibi Müslüman Araplardı ve şehir 639’da diğer Mezopotamya şehirleriyle birlikte Müslümanların eline geçti. Bizans’ın Abbasiler dönemine tekabül eden X. asır ortalarında gerçekleştirdiği birkaç girişim, çok kısa süren hâkimiyetlerle sonuçlandı. Bizans İmparatorluğu çağında Nusaybin, sosyal açıdan çokçeşitli ve iktisadi açıdan İpekyolu güzergâhında bir ticaret gümrük şehri olarak var oldu. Mimari açıdan klasik Roma tarzının askeri, dini ve sosyal mimari unsurları kent ve yakın çevresindeki yapılar üzerinde egemen oldu. Dini açıdan Hıristiyan kiliselerinin ikiye ayrıldığı dönemde Sasanilerin koruması altında monofizitçilere karşı diyofizit anlayışın en önemli merkezi oldu. İlmi açıdan kentte kurulan akademi vesilesiyle özellikle III Süryaniler arasında tıp, hukuk, felsefe, mantık, astronomi ve dilbilgisi gibi alanlarda temayüz etmiş önemli isimler yetişti. Bu akademinin eğitim kadrosunda önemli yer eden Yakub, Efraim, Narsay, Barsawmo, Pavlos ve Baboy gibi isimlerin gerek ilkçağ eserlerini tercüme ederek günümüze ulaştırmaları gerekse kendi meydana getirdiği eserler, Araplar tarafından muhafaza edilip tercüme edilerek Haçlı Seferleri kanalıyla Avrupa’ya taşınmış ve aydınlanma çağının başlamasında önemli bir görev ifa etmiştir.

CENTURIES) Ahmet KÜTÜK The University of Fırat The Institute of Social Science The Department of History ELAZIĞ-2012-Page: LIV+329 Nisibis is an old and important city which its known history lay down until Assyrian period. This city, which was frequently said to be founded by Nemroud in classical sources, as a frontier city in Mesopotamia took an important and strategic role after Roman’s sovereignty. Firstly in BC 68 at Lucullus period Romans conquered the city of Nisibis. Subsequent periods it was one of the unshared land during the Part- Roman wars and in this process this city performed an important task as military base of Roman armies in Part-Roman border. After it was ceded to Sasanids in 363 Peace until Dara, the new fortificaiton city, was built in 507 Byzantine Empire lived a stagger process about during one and half century in the east border. After that date Byzantine Empire wasn’t able to get back to Nisibis from Sasanids, the rivals. After decline of Sasanids, Byzantines’ new rival was Muslim Arabs and in 639 Nisibis was conquered by Muslims together with other Mesopotamian cities. Several attempts which was took place by Byzantine in X. century, resulted in short dominations. In the period of Byzantine Empire, Nisibis was a wide variety of social aspects and economic aspects of custom as the city has a trade route of Silk Road. Architecturally, military, religious and social architectural elements of classical Roman style was dominant over the city and its surrondings structures. Religiously, in the V period of the Christian churches was divided into two parts, under the protection of Sasanids, Nisibis became the best important dyophysites center aganist the monophysites. Culturally, on the occasion of the academy was founded in the city, numerous important names distinguished itself in areas such as medicine, law, philosophy, logic, grammar and astronomygrew up specially among Assyrians. The names such as James of Nisibis, Ephraim, Pawlos, Narsai, Barsawmo, Baboy who were located in training staff of this academy, whether the treatises which have brought by translating to present days or their works wrote by them preserved and translated by Arabs, moved Europe through the the Crusades and thus the era of enlightment they performed an important task.

  • Jordanes and the Invention of Roman-Gothic History Dissertation
    Empire of Hope and Tragedy: Jordanes and the Invention of Roman-Gothic History Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Brian Swain Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Timothy Gregory, Co-advisor Anthony Kaldellis Kristina Sessa, Co-advisor Copyright by Brian Swain 2014 Abstract This dissertation explores the intersection of political and ethnic conflict during the emperor Justinian’s wars of reconquest through the figure and texts of Jordanes, the earliest barbarian voice to survive antiquity. Jordanes was ethnically Gothic - and yet he also claimed a Roman identity. Writing from Constantinople in 551, he penned two Latin histories on the Gothic and Roman pasts respectively. Crucially, Jordanes wrote while Goths and Romans clashed in the imperial war to reclaim the Italian homeland that had been under Gothic rule since 493. That a Roman Goth wrote about Goths while Rome was at war with Goths is significant and has no analogue in the ancient record. I argue that it was precisely this conflict which prompted Jordanes’ historical inquiry. Jordanes, though, has long been considered a mere copyist, and seldom treated as an historian with ideas of his own. And the few scholars who have treated Jordanes as an original author have dampened the significance of his Gothicness by arguing that barbarian ethnicities were evanescent and subsumed by the gravity of a Roman political identity. They hold that Jordanes was simply a Roman who can tell us only about Roman things, and supported the Roman emperor in his war against the Goths.

  • Calendar of Roman Events
    Introduction Steve Worboys and I began this calendar in 1980 or 1981 when we discovered that the exact dates of many events survive from Roman antiquity, the most famous being the ides of March murder of Caesar. Flipping through a few books on Roman history revealed a handful of dates, and we believed that to fill every day of the year would certainly be impossible. From 1981 until 1989 I kept the calendar, adding dates as I ran across them. In 1989 I typed the list into the computer and we began again to plunder books and journals for dates, this time recording sources. Since then I have worked and reworked the Calendar, revising old entries and adding many, many more. The Roman Calendar The calendar was reformed twice, once by Caesar in 46 BC and later by Augustus in 8 BC. Each of these reforms is described in A. K. Michels’ book The Calendar of the Roman Republic. In an ordinary pre-Julian year, the number of days in each month was as follows: 29 January 31 May 29 September 28 February 29 June 31 October 31 March 31 Quintilis (July) 29 November 29 April 29 Sextilis (August) 29 December. The Romans did not number the days of the months consecutively. They reckoned backwards from three fixed points: The kalends, the nones, and the ides. The kalends is the first day of the month. For months with 31 days the nones fall on the 7th and the ides the 15th. For other months the nones fall on the 5th and the ides on the 13th.
