  • The Newsletter Department of History
    THE NEWSLETTER DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY Number 60 Chapel Hill, North Carolina Autumn 2011 GREETINGS FROM THE CHAIR The History Department continues to excel at its core missions of teaching and research despite major budget cutbacks in North Carolina’s statewide system of public education. Reductions in state funds have forced us to make significant financial adjustments, limit the number of incoming graduate students, freeze salaries, and rely increasingly on generous private gifts. Yet our History classes are filled every semester, our faculty colleagues are publishing prizewinning books and articles, our graduate students are competing successfully for national research grants, and our undergraduate programs attract large numbers of talented students (we currently have more than 730 undergraduate majors). Historians know that “good times” and “bad times” run in cycles, so the UNC History Department is surviving difficult times in ways that will enable us to flourish when the better times come around again. The diversity and quantity of our faculty publications will be apparent as you read this Newsletter, but the quality of this work is even more impressive than the quantity. Over this past year alone, for example, Christopher Browning, Konrad Jarausch, Christopher Lee, Jim Leloudis, Malinda Lowery, Donald Reid, and Richard Talbert received prizes for outstanding books or articles that they had recently published. Other recognition came to faculty who received highly competitive research grants and fellowships to support innovative new book projects. Fitz Brundage was awarded a Guggenheim fellowship; and both Fitz and Bill Ferris received Reynolds faculty fellowships from UNC; Karen Hagemann was awarded a fellowship at the National Humanities Center, where John Sweet will also be in residence with the support of a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities; and Malinda Lowery received a year- long “New Directions” fellowship from the Mellon Foundation.

  • The Roman Army's Emergence from Its Italian Origins
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Carolina Digital Repository THE ROMAN ARMY’S EMERGENCE FROM ITS ITALIAN ORIGINS Patrick Alan Kent A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Richard Talbert Nathan Rosenstein Daniel Gargola Fred Naiden Wayne Lee ABSTRACT PATRICK ALAN KENT: The Roman Army’s Emergence from its Italian Origins (Under the direction of Prof. Richard Talbert) Roman armies in the 4 th century and earlier resembled other Italian armies of the day. By using what limited sources are available concerning early Italian warfare, it is possible to reinterpret the history of the Republic through the changing relationship of the Romans and their Italian allies. An important aspect of early Italian warfare was military cooperation, facilitated by overlapping bonds of formal and informal relationships between communities and individuals. However, there was little in the way of organized allied contingents. Over the 3 rd century and culminating in the Second Punic War, the Romans organized their Italian allies into large conglomerate units that were placed under Roman officers. At the same time, the Romans generally took more direct control of the military resources of their allies as idea of military obligation developed. The integration and subordination of the Italians under increasing Roman domination fundamentally altered their relationships. In the 2 nd century the result was a growing feeling of discontent among the Italians with their position.

  • Epigraphic Evidence for Boundary Disputes in the Roman Empire
    EPIGRAPHIC EVIDENCE FOR BOUNDARY DISPUTES IN THE ROMAN EMPIRE by Thomas Elliott A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2004 Approved by _____________________________________ Advisor: Professor Richard Talbert _____________________________________ Reader: Professor Jerzy Linderski _____________________________________ Reader: Professor Mary Boatwright _____________________________________ Reader: Professor George Houston _____________________________________ Reader: Professor Melissa Bullard ii This page intentionally left blank. iii © 2004 Thomas Elliott ALL RIGHTS RESERVED iv This page intentionally left blank. v ABSTRACT THOMAS ELLIOTT: Epigraphic Evidence for Boundary Disputes in the Roman Empire (Under the direction of Richard Talbert) This dissertation presents all published Greek and Latin epigraphic documents relating to internal boundary disputes of the Roman empire. In date, it spans the period from 2 BC to the third century AD. Spatially, the documents derive from 12 provinces ( Achaia, Africa, Asia, Baetica, Cilicia, Creta et Cyrene, Dalmatia, Iudaea, Lusitania, Macedonia, Moesia and Syria ), plus Italy. The presentation of each includes a text, English translation, bibliography and commentary. Analytical chapters expand upon recent published work by G. Burton and B. Campbell. Terminological analysis permits classification of epigraphic and literary evidence into five categories: boundary disputes, restoration of public and sacred lands, other land disputes, the assignment of boundaries and other authoritative demarcations involving Roman officials. The analysis also provides a more focused definition of several Latin and Greek words that indicate the delivery of a verdict by a Roman official ( decretum, sententia, iudicium, ἀποφάσις, κρίσις, ἐπικρίμα ).

    CULTURAL CONSTRUCTIONS: DEPICTIONS OF ARCHITECTURE IN ROMAN STATE RELIEFS Elizabeth Wolfram Thill A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Classics. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Dr. Monika Truemper Dr. Sheila Dillon Dr. Lidewijde de Jong Dr. Mary Sturgeon Dr. Richard Talbert ABSTRACT ELIZABETH WOLFRAM THILL: Cultural Constructions: Depictions of Architecture in Roman State Reliefs (Under the direction of Monika Truemper) Architectural depictions are an important window into crucial conceptual connections between architecture and culture in the Roman Empire. While previous scholarship has treated depictions of architecture as topographic markers, I argue that architectural depictions frequently served as potent cultural symbols, acting within the broader themes and ideological messages of sculptural monuments. This is true both for representations of particular historic buildings (identifiable depictions), and for the far more numerous depictions that were never meant to be identified with a specific structure (generic depictions). This latter category of depictions has been almost completely unexplored in scholarship. This dissertation seeks to fill this gap, and to situate architectural depictions within scholarship on state reliefs as a medium for political and ideological expression. I explore the ways in which architectural depictions, both identifiable and generic, were employed in state-sponsored sculptural monuments, or state reliefs, in the first and second centuries CE in and around the city of Rome. My work is innovative in combining the iconographic and iconological analysis of architectural depictions with theoretical approaches to the symbolism of built architecture, drawn from studies on acculturation (“Romanization”), colonial interactions, and imperialism.

Typeset by Academic + Technical Typesetting, Bristol, Great Britain Printed by Berforts Information Press, Eynsham, Oxford, Great Britain The port system of Imperial Rome Simon Keay INTRODUCTION ortus, the maritime port of Imperial Rome, was located some 30 km to the southwest of P Rome, and just under 3 km to the north of Ostia at the mouth of the Tiber. It was an artificial port that was begun under Claudius, was substantially enlarged under Trajan, and underwent continued further development in the late antique period. There is little doubt that the prime purpose of Portus was to help satiate the huge demand of the city of Rome for foodstuffs and material (Tchernia and Viviers 2000: 779–89). While Ostia was clearly an important nexus of traders, shippers and representatives of the state involved in supplying Rome with food, Portus was the maritime hub of Rome that actually enabled cargoes to be unloaded and stored before reaching the City.1 The view underlying this paper is that the full implications of the establishment of Portus for our understanding of the mechanisms of how Rome was supplied have yet to be appreciated fully.

  • Petitions in the Epigraphic Record: Development of the Legal Order Outside of the Imperial Hierarchy
    PETITIONS IN THE EPIGRAPHIC RECORD: DEVELOPMENT OF THE LEGAL ORDER OUTSIDE OF THE IMPERIAL HIERARCHY Kevin Kallmes A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters in Greek in the Department of Classics in the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Professor James Rives Professor Luca Grillo Professor Emily Baragwanath ©2017 Kevin Kallmes ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Kevin Kallmes, Petitions in the Epigraphic Record: Development of the Legal Order outside of the Imperial Hierarchy (Under the direction of Professor James Rives) The Roman imperial bureaucracy in the 2nd and 3rd centuries had expanded to include direct provincial administration, which led to disputes between imperial representatives and provincial subjects. To resolve these disputes, subjects turned to the burgeoning petition and response system of the Roman emperors, but the petitioners themselves lacked the legal education to effectively utilize precedent or rhetorical formulas. Despite this, fifteen petitions found in inscriptions from the 2nd and 3rd century AD in Latin and Greek from disparate regions contained the same structure and persuasive formulas. Based on these cross-empire similarities, I argue that these methods of presentation were maintained by legal counsels, whose services represented an organic growth of systematic aid based on the unmet needs of petitioners. Then, as a part of Diocletian’s reform, the content of petitions was used as a source of legal precedent and to identify issues in the provincial bureaucracy that needed resolution. iii This thesis is dedicated to Professor James Rives for his mentorship, inspiring dedication, and drive to enrich the history of the legal profession.
