  • NEGOTIATIONS at ROME Hannibal, One of History's Great Failures, Had Been Driven from Italy, Defeated in Mrica, and His Flight Fr
    CHAPTER SIX NEGOTIATIONS AT ROME Hannibal, one of history's great failures, had been driven from Italy, defeated in Mrica, and his flight from his home city in 195 marked him also as a failed politician in Carthage after the peace. He had arrived in the city from Italy as a stranger, and his assumption of authority had not been a wholly popular move with those who believed such a position should be their own. There had always been a faction in the city which had been anti-Barkid, and which had thus at various times been anti-imperialist, anti-war, or pro-Roman. By 195, Hannibal had made himself sufficiently disliked to fear for his life, and he fled Mrica in a prepared ship, as he had fled Italy. 1 For a man such as Hannibal there was now only one place to go. The whole of the western Mediterranean, all of Greece, and Egypt were subject to, or friendly towards, Rome, and so were closed to him. Only the Seleukid empire could provide him with a refuge, and this was all the more suitable since Carthage's home city was Tyre, one of Antiochos III's recent conquests. He was the most famous Phoenician of his time; Tyre was a natural refuge for him, where he would be welcomed. Extradition thence, no matter what Antiochos' power or Rome's insistence, would be effectively impossible. It is important to note that Hannibal was not harried out of Carthage by Rome: he fled the city because he was in danger from his fellow-citizens.

  • 75 AD FABIUS 270-203 BC Plutarch Translated
    75 AD FABIUS 270-203 B.C. Plutarch translated by John Dryden Plutarch (46-120) - Greek biographer, historian, and philosopher, sometimes known as the encyclopaedist of antiquity. He is most renowned for his series of character studies, arranged mostly in pairs, known as “Plutarch’s Lives of the Noble Grecians and Romans” or “Parallel Lives.” Fabius (75 AD) - A study of the life of Fabius, a Roman consul. FABIUS HAVING related the memorable actions of Pericles, our history now proceeds to the life of Fabius. A son of Hercules and a nymph, of some woman of that country, who brought him forth on the banks of Tiber, was, it is said, the first Fabius, the founder of the numerous and distinguished family of the name. Others will have it that they were first called Fodii, because the first of the race delighted in digging pitfalls for wild beasts, fodere being still the Latin for to dig, and fossa for a ditch, and that in process of time, by the change of the two letters, they grew to be called Fabii. But be these things true or false, certain it is that this family for a long time yielded a great number of eminent persons. Our Fabius, who was fourth in descent from that Fabius Rullus who first brought the honourable surname of Maximus into his family, was also, by way of personal nickname, called Verrucosus, from a wart on his upper lip; and in his childhood they in like manner named him Ovicula, or The Lamb, on account of his extreme mildness of temper.

  • Enrichment: Hannibal
    THE ROMAN REPUBLIC SECTION 4 Name ________________________________________________ Class ________________________ Date ______________ Enrichment: Hannibal Directions Read the selection below. Answer the questions that follow and complete the activity. Carthaginian general Hannibal is considered one of history’s greatest military leaders. His military judgment can perhaps be traced to his earliest days. The son of a general, nine-year-old Hannibal went with his father to war in Spain. His father taught him about the military and also taught him to hate Rome, which had earlier defeated Carthage in war. Over the next 15 years Hannibal also learned how to fight. When he became general in Spain in 221 B.C., he was an experienced military leader. After crossing the Alps with his war elephants in 218 B.C., Hannibal used clever tactics to outsmart the Romans. In three great battles he defeated one Roman army after another. The last of these was the Battle of Cannae, in 216. There, he cornered the Roman army. Carthaginian armies lost just 6,000 to 7,000 men and killed more than 50,000 Roman soldiers. After Cannae, success shifted to the Romans, in part because they beat Hannibal at his own tactical game. For example, they learned to fight Hannibal’s war elephants. Rather than flee in panic when the Carthaginian elephants charged, the Roman maniples stood aside and let the elephants pass. The Romans used the advantage they had of fighting in their own territory to wear down Hannibal. Instead of starting battles, the Romans delayed while the Carthaginians ran out of supplies.

  • Rome Conquers the Western Mediterranean (264-146 B.C.) the Punic Wars
    Rome Conquers the Western Mediterranean (264-146 B.C.) The Punic Wars After subjugating the Greek colonies in southern Italy, Rome sought to control western Mediterranean trade. Its chief rival, located across the Mediterranean in northern Africa, was the city-state of Carthage. Originally a Phoenician colony, Carthage had become a powerful commercial empire. Rome defeated Carthage in three Punic (Phoenician) Wars and gained mastery of the western Mediterranean. The First Punic War (264-241 B.C.) Fighting chiefly on the island of Sicily and in the Mediterranean Sea, Rome’s citizen-soldiers eventually defeated Carthage’s mercenaries(hired foreign soldiers). Rome annexed Sicily and then Sardinia and Corsica. Both sides prepared to renew the struggle. Carthage acquired a part of Spain and recruited Spanish troops. Rome consolidated its position in Italy by conquering the Gauls, thereby extending its rule northward from the Po River to the Alps. The Second Punic War (218-201 B.C.) Hannibal, Carthage’s great general, led an army from Spain across the Alps and into Italy. At first he won numerous victories, climaxed by the battle of Cannae. However, he was unable to seize the city of Rome. Gradually the tide of battle turned in favor of Rome. The Romans destroyed a Carthaginian army sent to reinforce Hannibal, then conquered Spain, and finally invaded North Africa. Hannibal withdrew his army from Italy to defend Carthage but, in the Battle of Zama, was at last defeated. Rome annexed Carthage’s Spanish provinces and reduced Carthage to a second-rate power. Hannibal of Carthage Reasons for Rome’s Victory • superior wealth and military power, • the loyalty of most of its allies, and • the rise of capable generals, notably Fabius and Scipio.

It is a story not just of battles and betrayal, but also of the interactions between dissimilar peoples in a multiethnic army trying to coordinate, fight, and win, while commanded by a Punic officer corps which may or may not have been competent. Carthaginian mercenaries are one piece of a larger narrative about the struggle between Carthage and Rome for dominance in the Western Mediterranean, and their history illustrates the evolution of the mercenary system employed by the Carthaginian Empire to extend her power and ensure her survival.

  • Plutarch Second Proofs
    5 - - ASEMOTATOS OR AUTOKRATOR? OBSCURITY AND GLORY IN PLUTARCH’S SERTORIUS Jeffrey Beneker The opening chapter of Plutarch’s Life of Sertorius introduces the reader to a simple hero. As Plutarch compares Sertorius to famous generals of the past and to his own contemporaries, he describes an impressive but rather one-dimensional figure: a skilled warrior who was ultimately defeated not by his enemies but by fortune. In the course of the Life, however, Sertorius’ words and deeds disclose nuances of character that enrich the simple portrait drawn in the introduction. From the eager warrior there gradually emerges a weary but principled general with an aversion to war. Even so, Plutarch provides very little direct commentary to help shape the reader’s changing view of his hero. As a result of this narratorial silence, important questions about Sertorius’ character are raised but left unanswered. In this paper, I argue that comparative readings in the Lives of other late- Republican statesmen – Lucullus, Marius, Sulla, Pompey, and Caesar – can supply the missing commentary. These other Lives help to reveal the character that lay behind Sertorius’ unusual attitude toward war. Moreover, by considering these texts in parallel, the reader develops a more complete understanding of Plutarch’s view of the human factors that produced the civil strife that destabilized Rome in the early first century BC. As the Life opens, Plutarch presents Sertorius’ approach to war as exemplary rather than unusual. He begins with a discussion of how some people ascribe great importance to the superficial similarities that connect the lives of different men.

  • Hannibal's Gaze and Ekphrasis in the Punica Of
    VISIONS OF GRANDEUR: HANNIBAL’S GAZE AND EKPHRASIS IN THE PUNICA OF SILIUS ITALICUS by SEAN MATHIS (Under the Direction of Mario Erasmo) ABSTRACT This is a thesis about Silius Italicus, a Latin poet, who wrote his epic poem, the Punica, during the reign of the emperor Domitian. Silius wrote his epic poem in the period after Vergil’s Aeneid, and, like his literary contemporaries, was forced to contend with his poetic forebears in order to insert his own poem into the Latin epic tradition. Thus, the poet looks back to Vergil, his principal poetic predecessor, through his use of allusion, metaphor, and other poetic imagery. The poem is also historical in nature, covering the period leading up to the Second Punic War, and Silius necessarily looks back to his historical predecessors, notably the Latin historian Livy. Silius creates, within the Punica, an interesting allusive technique that allows for a literary dialogue between the historical and epic genres, thus guaranteeing his position as a successor to both Vergil and Livy.

  • Exotic, Erotic, Heroic?
    134 6 Exotic, Erotic, Heroic? Women of Carthage in Western Imagination Marta García Morcillo ‘Salammbô in her splendour was blended with Tanit, and seemed the very genius of Carthage, and its embodied soul’ Flaubert, Salammbô, ch. 15 (transl. E. Powys Mathers) Preface Dido, Sophonisba and the anonymous wife of Hasdrubal – the general who defended the city in 146 BCE – have for centuries inspired the imagination of artists and travellers searching for traces of the grandeur of Punic Carthage. When, in 1807, Chateaubriand visited Tunis and the famous Acropolis of Byrsa, he was inevitably disappointed by the desolate scenery he encountered. Carthage’s indecipherable ruins were certainly no match for the striking memories left by Hannibal and his military campaigns, but also for those left by the heroic women who embodied the spirit of the city and its tragic fate.1 A similar experience in 1862 inspired Flaubert’s most uncanny creature, the fictional Salammbô, who was about to become the epitome of fin-de-siècle feminised eroticism as moulded by Orientalism. Salammbô was the titular character of a historical novel set during the Mercenary War (240 to 238 BCE), through which Flaubert aimed to ‘resurrect Carthage’. Like the legendary and historical 135 women that preceded and succeeded her, Salammbô was affected by the character and destiny of the Punic city, but also by something dark that inhabits the depths of every human soul. In the following pages, I will discuss the afterlives of the historical, legendary and fictional women of Carthage in the modern arts. The chapter is divided into four sections that propose four types of characterisations, following a diachronic approach: the tragic, the exotic, the vanished and the resurrected woman.

  • Hannibal Barca
    LESSONS IN LEADERSHIP – HANNIBAL BARCA Hannibal “I will either find a way or make one” Hannibal, General of the Carthaginian army, lived in the second and third century B.C. He was born into a Carthaginian military family and was made to swear by his father to forever be hostile towards Rome due to Carthage’s loss in the first Punic war. His father, Hamilcar Barca, was a Carthaginian General who fought in the first Punic war. Hamilcar commanded the Carthaginian land forces in Sicily from 247 BC to 241 BC, during the latter stages of the First Punic War. He kept his army intact and led a successful guerrilla war against the Romans in Sicily. Hamilcar retired to Carthage after the peace treaty in 241 BC, following the defeat of Carthage. During the Second Punic War, Hannibal swept across southern Europe, famously crossing the Alps where he consistently defeated the Roman army, but never taking the city itself. Hannibal won decisive victories against the Romans, the most famous being the battles of Trebia, Lake Trasimene, and Cannae resulting in Rome losing one-fifth of the entire population of male citizens over 17 years of age. Although the Romans had lost an enormous portion of men, they did not break and after years of careful tiptoeing against Hannibal regaining its strength Rome counterattacked, and Hannibal was forced to return to Carthage where he was defeated at the battle of Zama by his rival Scipio Africanus, consequently breaking Carthage’s will and ability to wage war. Following the Second Punic war, Hannibal worked for a time as a statesman before he was forced into exile by Rome.
