AN OVERVIEW of ATHLETICS in LATE ANTIQUITY 27 1 Greece 33 2 Asia Minor 70 3 Syria 89 4 Egypt 111 5 Italy 129 6 Gaul 151 7 North Africa 156 Conclusions to Part I 164
THE END OF GREEK ATHLETICS IN LATE ANTIQUITY This book presents the first comprehensive study of how and why athletic contests, a characteristic aspect of Greek culture for over a millennium, disappeared in late antiquity. In contrast to previous discussions, which focus on the ancient Olympics, the end of the most famous games is analyzed here in the context of the collapse of the entire international agonistic circuit, which encompassed several hundred contests. The first part of the book describes this collapse by means of a detailed analysis of the fourth- and fifth-century history of the athletic games in each region of the Mediterranean: Greece, Asia Minor, Syria, Egypt, Italy, Gaul, and northern Africa. The second half continues by explaining these developments, challenging traditional theories (especially the ban by the Christian emperor Theodosius I), and discussing in detail both the late-antique socio- economic context and the late-antique perceptions of athletics. sofie remijsen is Junior Professor in the Department of History at the University of Mannheim. GREEKCULTUREINTHEROMANWORLD EDITORS susan e. alcock Brown University jaś elsner Corpus Christi College, Oxford simon goldhill University of Cambridge michael squire King’s College London The Greek culture of the Roman Empire offers a rich field of study. Extraordinary insights can be gained into processes of multicultural contact and exchange, political and ideological conflict, and the creativity of a changing, polyglot empire. During this period, many fundamental elements of Western society were being set in place: from the rise of Christianity, to an influential system of education, to long–lived artistic canons. This series is the first to focus on the response of Greek culture to its Roman imperial setting as a significant phenomenon in its own right. -
Conversion of Armenia
THE CONVERSION OF ARMENIA TO THE CHRISTIAN FAITH HORACE HART, PRINTER TO THE UNIVERSITY THE CONVERSION OF ARMENIA TO THE CHRISTIAN FAITH BY W. ST. CLAIR-TISDALL, M.A., C.M.S. AUTHOR OF 'THE RELIGION OF THE CRESCENT,' ETC. ' Te Martyrum candidatus laudat exercitns: Te per orbem terrarnm sancta confitetur Ecclesia. Tu Rex Gloriae, Christe I '-Te Deum. THE RELIGIOUS TRACT SOCIETY 56 PATERNOSTER ROW AND 65 ST. PAUL'S CHURCHYARD [A /l n'ghts reserved J PREFACE DURING the last few years the world ha~ witnessed a terribl.e spectacle. We nave seen a Christian nation in Asia, of the same Aryan blood as ourselves, suffering the most cruel wrongs at the hands of the Turks and their confederates, the Kurds. We have seen members of this Christian nation, men and women and little children, massacred in tens qf thousands, and our illustrated papers have presented us with photographic views of some of these terrible scenes. We have read of large numbers dying a martyr's death rather than embrace Islam, and have heard of those who had less courage and faith being driven at the point of the sword to repeat the ,creed of the. Arabian Antichrist. We have beheld some thing more strange still - the Christian nations of Europe hampered in their endeavours to put a stop to this state of things by their mutual ·distrust and jealousy of one another. And thus, as we draw near the end of the nineteenth century, our news papers are quietly discussing the question whether or not Turkey will succeed in exterminating the 6 PREFACE whole Christian population of her Armenian provinces, or in forcing upon them, at the sword's point, an apostasy worse than death. -
The Sparapetut'iwn in Armenia in the Fourth and Fifth Centuries
The Sparapetut'iwn in Armenia in the Fourth and Fifth Centuries by Robert Bedrosian This article was published in the journal Armenian Review Vol. 36 #2(1983) pp. 6-46. Robert Bedrosian received a Ph.D. from Columbia University's Department of Middle East Languages and Cultures in 1979. One of the most important offices in Arsacid Armenia belonged to the sparapet or commander-in-chief of the armies. Like many other offices in the Armenian kingdom such as those of the coronant, the chamberlain, and the master of the hunt, the sparapetut'iwn was a hereditary charge held traditionally by the senior member of one family, the Mamikoneans. Exactly when the sparapetut'iwn was instituted in Armenia is not known, since the earliest relevant Armenian sources (fifth century) give a confused picture of the establishment of Arsacid offices in the country. Likewise the time of the abolition of the office is unclear since one meets Mamikonean sparapets after the fall of the Armenian Arsacid kingdom (A.D. 428) and during the seventh and eighth centuries. In the medieval Bagratid and Arcrunid kingdoms as well as in Cilician Armenia, the sparapetut'iwn was still an important office, although with the removal of the Mamikoneans to the Byzantine empire in the late eighth century, its occupants were drawn from other lordly (naxarar) families. Because of Armenia's strategic geographical position between two mighty and inimical powers, Rome-Byzantium on the west and Iran on the east, the country was often forced to participate in the campaigns launched by one empire against the other. -

ATLETEN in DE POLITIEK De Publieke Carrières Van Olympionikai En Andere Winnaars in Griekse Spelen
KATHOLIEKE UNIVERSITEIT LEUVEN FACULTEIT LETTEREN MASTEROPLEIDING GESCHIEDENIS VAN DE OUDHEID ATLETEN IN DE POLITIEK De publieke carrières van Olympionikai en andere winnaars in Griekse spelen Promotor Masterproef Prof. dr. W. Clarysse ingediend door Tom Gheldof Leuven 2008-2009 Voorwoord Vorig jaar rond deze periode ging ik nog eens rustig een boekhandel binnen. Daar viel mijn oog meteen op een klein boekje met op de kaft een afbeelding uit de film ‘Olympia’ van de Duitse cinéaste Leni Riefenstahl. De titel van het boek ‘Olympische Spelen in de Oudheid’ kon me wel bekoren en ik kocht het voor een spotprijsje. Met de Olympische Spelen van Peking op de achtergrond las ik het vlotgeschreven werk van de sporthistorici Finley en Pleket in een ruk uit. Wanneer in oktober het Instituut Klassieke Studies voor de wetenschapsweek studenten zocht om activiteiten met het thema ‘Sportpersoonlijkheid van de Oudheid’ te begeleiden, stelde ik me dan ook graag kandidaat. Ik verdiepte mij in de epigrafische, papyrologische en literaire bronnen in verband met de atleten uit de Oudheid en besliste om deze thematiek als onderwerp te kiezen voor mijn masterproef. Sportgeschiedenis is reeds sinds de negentiende eeuw een onderzoeksdomein binnen de studie van de Klassieke Oudheid, maar pas in de laatste decennia zijn sporthistorici als Young en Pleket er in geslaagd een aantal oude mythes te ontkrachten. Mijn onderzoek pretendeert niet even vernieuwend te zijn als deze uitmuntende geleerden, maar ik hoop toch van met mijn overzicht van ‘atleten in de politiek’ een nuttige bijdrage te hebben geleverd aan het verdere onderzoek. Terwijl de archaïsche en de klassieke periode reeds veel aandacht gekregen hebben, raakt het onderzoek over de hellenistische en de Romeinse periode een beetje achterop. -
