  • AMMIANUS and EUTHERIUS by D
    ACTA CLASSICA XLI (1998) 105-117 ISSN 0065-11.41 AMMIANUS AND EUTHERIUS by D. Woods (University College Cork) ABSTRACT Amrnianus Marcellinus digresses at length on the career and character of the eunuch Eutherius, and such is his praise of Eutherius that it is generally agreed that he must have used him as one of his sources. A comparison of Amrnianus' account of an alleged plot to assassinate Julian shortly after his revolt at Paris in 360 to Libanius' account of the same reveals that Eutherius has concealed his involvement in this plot. Furthermore, he has misrepresented his expulsion from Julian's domain back to the court of Constantius II as a result of this plot as a diplomatic mission. He remained in disgrace under Julian, but was restored to office when Jovian recalled many former officials under Constantius to court once more. His reputation as Julian's faithful praepositus cubiculi is undeserved. For our knowledge of the life and career of the eunuch Eutherius we rely almost totally on the testimony of Ammianus Marcellinus.1 He first introduces us to Eutherius when he describes his role in defence of Julian Caesar against the lies of the former magister equitum per Callias Marcellus during the early months of 357. Some Alamanni had besieged Julian in his winter-quarters at Sens for a month, during which time the magister equitum per Callias Marcellus had failed to send any reinforcements to his aid, despite being stationed nearby (Amm. 16.4.1-3). As a result, the emperor Constantius II had dismissed Marcellus from the army altogether, but Marcellus had not left it at that.

  • The Experiences and Education of the Emperor Julian and How It
    COMPANION TO THE GODS, FRIEND TO THE EMPIRE: THE EXPERIENCES AND EDUCATION OF THE EMPEROR JULIAN AND HOW IT INFLUE NCED HIS REIGN Marshall Lilly Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS August 2014 APPROVED: Christopher Fuhrmann, Major Professor Laura Stern, Committee Member Robert Citino, Committee Member Richard McCaslin, Chair of the Department of History Mark Wardell, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Lilly, Marshall. Companion to the Gods, Friend to the Empire: The Experiences and Education of the Emperor Julian and How It Influenced His Reign 361-363 A.D. Master of Arts (History), August 2014, 108 pp., bibliography, 114 titles. This thesis explores the life and reign of Julian the Apostate the man who ruled over the Roman Empire from A.D. 361-363. The study of Julian the Apostate’s reign has historically been eclipsed due to his clash with Christianity. After the murder of his family in 337 by his Christian cousin Constantius, Julian was sent into exile. These emotional experiences would impact his view of the Christian religion for the remainder of his life. Julian did have conflict with the Christians but his main goal in the end was the revival of ancient paganism and the restoration of the Empire back to her glory. The purpose of this study is to trace the education and experiences that Julian had undergone and the effects they it had on his reign. Julian was able to have both a Christian and pagan education that would have a lifelong influence on his reign.

  • The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire: Volume II by Edward Gibbon
    HISTORY OF THE DECLINE AND FALL OF THE ROMAN EMPIRE By Edward Gibbon VOLUME II This is volume two of the six volumes of Edward Gibbon's History Of The Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire. I will be scanning and putting out on the net the remaining five volumes as I find time to do this. So have patience. If you find any errors please feel free to notify me of them. I want to make this the best etext edition possible for both scholars and the general public. [email protected] and [email protected] are my email addresses for now. Please feel free to send me your comments and I hope you enjoy this. David Reed History Of The Decline And Fall Of The Roman Empire Edward Gibbon, Esq. With notes by the Rev. H. H. Milman Vol. 2 1782 (Written), 1845 (Revised) Chapter XVI: Conduct Towards The Christians, From Nero To Constantine. Part I. Note: The sixteenth chapter I cannot help considering as a very ingenious and specious, but very disgraceful extenuation of the cruelties perpetrated by the Roman magistrates against the Christians. It is written in the most contemptibly factious spirit of prejudice against the sufferers; it is unworthy of a philosopher and of humanity. Let the narrative of Cyprian's death be examined. He had to relate the murder of an innocent man of advanced age, and in a station deemed venerable by a considerable body of the provincials of Africa, put to death because he refused to sacrifice to Jupiter. Instead of pointing the indignation of posterity against such an atrocious act of tyranny, he dwells, with visible art, on the small circumstances of decorum and politeness which attended this murder, and which he relates with as much parade as if they were the most important particulars of the event.

  • Byzantine Names for SCA Personae
    1 A Short (and rough) Guide to Byzantine Names for SCA personae This is a listing of names that may be useful for constructing Byzantine persona. Having said that, please note that the term „Byzantine‟ is one that was not used in the time of the Empire. They referred to themselves as Romans. Please also note that this is compiled by a non-historian and non-linguist. When errors are detected, please let me know so that I can correct them. Additional material is always welcomed. It is a work in progress and will be added to as I have time to research more books. This is the second major revision and the number of errors picked up is legion. If you have an earlier copy throw it away now. Some names of barbarians who became citizens are included. Names from „client states‟ such as Serbia and Bosnia, as well as adversaries, can be found in my other article called Names for other Eastern Cultures. In itself it is not sufficient documentation for heraldic submission, but it will give you ideas and tell you where to start looking. The use of (?) means that either I have nothing that gives me an idea, or that I am not sure of what I have. If there are alternatives given of „c‟, „x‟ and „k‟ modern scholarship prefers the „k‟. „K‟ is closer to the original in both spelling and pronunciation.
