  • RICE, CARL ROSS. Diocletian's “Great
    ABSTRACT RICE, CARL ROSS. Diocletian’s “Great Persecutions”: Minority Religions and the Roman Tetrarchy. (Under the direction of Prof. S. Thomas Parker) In the year 303, the Roman Emperor Diocletian and the other members of the Tetrarchy launched a series of persecutions against Christians that is remembered as the most severe, widespread, and systematic persecution in the Church’s history. Around that time, the Tetrarchy also issued a rescript to the Pronconsul of Africa ordering similar persecutory actions against a religious group known as the Manichaeans. At first glance, the Tetrarchy’s actions appear to be the result of tensions between traditional classical paganism and religious groups that were not part of that system. However, when the status of Jewish populations in the Empire is examined, it becomes apparent that the Tetrarchy only persecuted Christians and Manichaeans. This thesis explores the relationship between the Tetrarchy and each of these three minority groups as it attempts to understand the Tetrarchy’s policies towards minority religions. In doing so, this thesis will discuss the relationship between the Roman state and minority religious groups in the era just before the Empire’s formal conversion to Christianity. It is only around certain moments in the various religions’ relationships with the state that the Tetrarchs order violence. Consequently, I argue that violence towards minority religions was a means by which the Roman state policed boundaries around its conceptions of Roman identity. © Copyright 2016 Carl Ross Rice All Rights Reserved Diocletian’s “Great Persecutions”: Minority Religions and the Roman Tetrarchy by Carl Ross Rice A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of North Carolina State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts History Raleigh, North Carolina 2016 APPROVED BY: ______________________________ _______________________________ S.

  • The Cambridge Companion to Age of Constantine.Pdf
    The Cambridge Companion to THE AGE OF CONSTANTINE S The Cambridge Companion to the Age of Constantine offers students a com- prehensive one-volume introduction to this pivotal emperor and his times. Richly illustrated and designed as a readable survey accessible to all audiences, it also achieves a level of scholarly sophistication and a freshness of interpretation that will be welcomed by the experts. The volume is divided into five sections that examine political history, reli- gion, social and economic history, art, and foreign relations during the reign of Constantine, a ruler who gains in importance because he steered the Roman Empire on a course parallel with his own personal develop- ment. Each chapter examines the intimate interplay between emperor and empire and between a powerful personality and his world. Collec- tively, the chapters show how both were mutually affected in ways that shaped the world of late antiquity and even affect our own world today. Noel Lenski is Associate Professor of Classics at the University of Colorado, Boulder. A specialist in the history of late antiquity, he is the author of numerous articles on military, political, cultural, and social history and the monograph Failure of Empire: Valens and the Roman State in the Fourth Century ad.

  • Imperial Adlocutiones to the Army: Performance, Recording and Functions (2Nd-4Th Centuries CE)1
    Originalveröffentlichung in: Göttinger Forum für Altertumswissenschaft 21, 2018, S. 67-99 Imperial adlocutiones to the army: performance, recording and functions (2nd-4th centuries CE)1 von LUISA ANDRIOLLO, Bamberg Key words: imperial army, imperial image, public speaking, imperial chan- cery, documentary sources, recorded proceedings Abstract This paper addresses the questions of imperial public speaking and the role of imperial chancery in recording, archiving and disseminating the emperor’s words by focusing on a specific typology of imperial pronouncements: impe- rial adlocutiones to the army. The author discusses five sources, covering a pe- riod from the 2nd to the 4th century CE and including epigraphic as well as ju- ridical texts. The circumstances of performance of imperial speeches, their re- cording and use in official imperial documents, and the subsequent circulation of such texts are considered. The analysis provides fresh insights into the pos- sible editorial history of the documents at hand, the modes of official commu- nication between the emperor and his troops and the changing habits of impe- rial bureaucracy from the Early Empire to Late Antiquity. I. Preliminary considerations The prominent role played by written records in all fields of administrative and judicial life is a commonly acknowledged feature of late antique imperial government.2 In particular, both imperial legislation preserved in the Theodo- sian and Justinian codes, and ecclesiastical sources, most notably the acts of the Church councils and synods, provide clear evidence of the importance at- tached to the proper recording of proceedings as a source of legitimacy and 1 This article is part of a project that has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation pro- gramme under grant agreement No 677638.

The focus of historians on Constantine I, the first Roman Emperor to allegedly convert to Christianity, has often come at the cost of ignoring Constantine's predecessor, Diocletian, sometimes known as the "Second Father of the Roman Empire". The success of Constantine's empire has often been attributed to the work and reforms of Diocletian, but there have been very few studies of the man beyond simple biography.

  • Fragmenta Londiniensia Anteiustiniana: Preliminary Observations
    Fragmenta Londiniensia Anteiustiniana: Preliminary Observations Simon Corcoran and Benet Salway* Abstract — This article gives a preliminary account of seventeen small parchment fragments, which have been the subject of detailed study by members of the team of the Projet Volterra since the end of 2009. The fragments have been identified as coming from a legal text in Latin, indeed possibly all from the same page, written in a fifth-century uncial book-hand, but with some numeration and glosses in Greek. The fragments contain part of a rubricated title, as well as the headings and subscripts to several imperial rescripts of third-century emperors (Caracalla, Gordian III and the Philips are explicitly named), organized in a broadly chronological sequence without intervening commentary. Three rescripts overlap with texts known from the Justinian Code (C.7.62.3, 4, and 7). It is argued here that the work in the frag- ments is from neither the first nor second editions of the Justinian Code, nor from a juristic miscellany (similar to the Fragmenta Vaticana, Lex Dei, or Consultatio). Despite the apparently anomalous presence of a tetrarchic rescript (otherwise typically * Simon Corcoran is Senior Research Fellow, Projet Volterra, Department of History, University College London. Benet Salway is Senior Lecturer, Department of History, University College London, and a director of the Projet Volterra. The authors have jointly or severally given presentations about the fragments on various occasions between March 2010 and September 2012, including a workshop at Manchester (May 2010), a formal presentation at the third Volterra II Colloquium (London, July 2010), a plenary lecture at “Shifting Frontiers IX” (Penn State, June 2011) and in sessions at the 65th and 66th SIHDA meetings in Liège (September 2011) and Oxford (September 2012).
