    The End of Local Magistrates in the Roman Empire

    The end of local magistrates in the Roman Empire Leonard A. CURCHIN University of Waterloo, Canadá [email protected] Recibido: 15 de julio de 2013 Aceptado: 10 de diciembre de 2013 ABSTRACT Previous studies of the status of local magistrates in the Late Empire are unsatisfying and fail to explain when and why local magistracies ended. With the aid of legal, epigraphic, papyrological and literary sources, the author re-examines the functions and chronology of both regular and quasi-magistrates, among them the curator, defensor and pater civitatis. He finds that the expense of office-holding was only part of the reason for the extinction of regular magistracies. More critical was the failure of local magistrates to control finances and protect the plebeians. Key words: Cursus honorum. Late Roman Empire. Roman administration. Roman cities. Roman gov- ernment. Roman magistrates. El fin de los magistrados locales en el Imperio romano RESUMEN Los estudios previos relativos a la condición de los magistrados locales durante el Bajo Imperio son poco satisfactorios, porque dejan sin aclarar cuándo y cómo se extinguieron las magistraturas locales. Con ayuda de fuentes jurídicas, epigráficas, papirológicas y literarias, el autor examina de nuevo las funciones y la cronología de magistrados regulares y cuasi-magistrados, como el curator, el defensor y el pater civitatis. Se considera que los gastos aparejados a los cargos públicos explican sólo en parte la extinción de las magistraturas regulares; más crucial fue, en este sentido, el hecho de que los magistra- dos locales de este período fallasen a la hora de restringir los gastos o de proteger a los plebeyos.

    Undersökningar i Germanisk Mytologi, första delen. Investigations into Germanic Mythology, Volume 1 by Viktor Rydberg I. The Myth of the Primeval Age and Migrations I. INTRODUCTION. A. THE PROTO- INDO-EUROPEANS. 1. THE USE OF THE WORDS GERMAN AND GERMANIC. The nation divided into many tribes whose main bulk inhabited the extensive territory east of the Rhine river and north of the wooded Hercynian Mountains were already called Germans by the Romans and Gauls at the beginning of our era. That these tribes constituted a single nation was obvious to the Romans by the conspicuous similarity they all had in physical type, as well as, upon closer acquaintance, by their similar dialects, which evidently were variations of one and the same peculiar language and finally, by their similar customs, traditions, and religion. The characteristics of the Germanic physical type by Roman standards were a tall stature, blonde hair, blue eyes, and a light complexion. Even the authorities from whom the Roman historian Tacitus collected his information when he wrote his Germania — an invaluable work in regard to the history of culture— knew that in the so-called Suebian Sea, north of the Germanic continent, lay another important part of Germania, inhabited by Sviones, a people divided into several communities, which their kinsmen on the continent described as rich in weapons and fleets, and in warriors on land and sea (Tacitus, Germania 44). This northern sea- enclosed portion of Germania is called Scandinavia, Scandia, by other authors of the Roman Empire; and there can be no doubt that thereby was intended the peninsula which, as far back as historical memory extends, has been inhabited by the ancestors of the Swedes and the Norwegians.

  • Byzantine Names for SCA Personae

    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.

While no single scholar or then-contemporary Byzantine author has articulated a specific policy of geostrategy in the Byzantine Empire, this dissertation demonstrates an overt bias in Byzantine military and diplomatic operations toward coastal regions and maintenance of their physical control within the Mediterranean Basin. These imperial choices were fueled largely by: 1) the reigning geopolitical model of the Byzantine Empire; 2) the importance of the capital, today’s Istanbul (then Byzantium, and later, Constantinople); 3) the distribution of other major cities of the Empire; and 4) the maritime-based trade economy of the Byzantine Empire. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I must start by acknowledging the faith and confidence that Dr.

RASMUS B. ANDERSON. STOCKHOLM, November 20, 1887. HON. RASMUS B. ANDERSON, United States Minister, Copenhagen, Denmark. DEAR SIR, It gives me pleasure to authorise you to translate into English my work entitled "Researches in Teutonic Mythology," being convinced that no one could be found better qualified for this task than yourself. Certainly no one has taken a deeper interest than you in spreading among our Anglo-Saxon kinsmen, not only a knowledge of our common antiquity, but also of what modern Scandinavia is contributing to the advancement of culture—a work in which England and the United States of America are taking so large a share. Yours faithfully, VIKTOR RYDBERG. INTRODUCTION. A. THE ANCIENT ARYANS. 1. THE WORDS GERMAN AND GERMANIC. ALREADY at the beginning of the Christian era the name Germans was applied by the Romans and Gauls to the many clans of people whose main habitation was the extensive territory east of the Rhine, and north of the forest-clad Hercynian Mountains. That these clans constituted one race was evident to the Romans, for they all had a striking similarity in type of body; moreover, a closer acquaintance revealed that their numerous dialects were all variations of the same parent language, and finally, they resembled each other in customs, traditions, and religion. The characteristic features of the physical type of the Germans were light hair, blue eyes, light complexion, and tallness of stature as compared with the Romans.
