CLASSICAL TRADITION 266 PUBLIS CIETY FOR THE PRO MAN STUDIES NOTES FOR CONTRIBUTORS Scope: The Journal aims to publish papers in the full range of the field which the Roman Society was established to promote, that is 'the study of the history, archaeology, literature and art of Italy and the Roman Empire, from the earliest times down to about A.D. 700'. Although the emphasis of the Journal has been on historical themes, we would welcome more submissions on literary, archaeological and art historical topics, including those on issues of cultural and intellectual history that cut across these categories. Papers primarily concerned with the archaeology of Roman Britain should be sent in the first place to Britannia; those concerned with the archaeology of the Roman Empire at large are equally welcomed by this Journal. Style: The Journal seeks to publish papers that make a fresh and significant contribution to the understanding of the Roman world, and have the potential to stimulate further discussion. They should be carefully thought through and clearly argued; this does not necessarily involve a heavy use of footnotes, but does involve clear statement of the argument and of its broader significance, and adequate signposting to the reader of the steps in the argument. They should so far as possible be fully accessible to the non-specialist reader, and extended citations in ancient languages should always be translated. Editorial procedure: The Journal is run by an Editorial Committee, the members of which are listed with the officers of the Society. Submissions are circulated at the Editor's discretion to members of the Committee and, where appropriate, to other specialist readers. This process takes several months. Detailed comments are normally sent only to authors of submissions which have been accepted, or which are thought suitable for resubmission. Authors are frequently invited to revise submissions in the light of such comments. Deadlines: The Journal is scheduled to appear in November each year. Submissions arriving later than the end of any year may well be too late for acceptance for the following year's Journal; those intending to make late submissions are welcome to write to the Editor in advance. The optimum time for submission is between April and October of any given year for appearance in the following year's issue. Final versions after revision must be in the Editor's hands by the end of February. Style guidelines: Detailed guidelines on matters of presentation are available from the Editor, but recent issues of the Journal should be treated as a general guide. Discs: Contributions on discs are welcome but a clean print-out must also be supplied. Discs in Wordperfect or Word for Windows are preferred but other standard languages are also acceptable. Article submissions and all general enquiries should be addressed to the Editor, Professor Andrew Wallace-Hadrill, Department of Classics, The University, Whiteknights, PO Box 218, Reading RG6 2AA, UK. Correspondence relating to reviews should be addressed to the Review Editor, Dr M. Goodman, at the Society's address. Books for review should be sent to the Librarian, Hellenic and Roman Societies, 31—34 Gordon Square, London WCIH OPP. The JOURNAL of ROMAN STUDIES WITH ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS TO THE CAMBRIDGE H. A.

  • A. Cameron, Procopius and the Sixth Century
    Histos () - REVIEW −DISCUSSION CAMERON AND BEYOND Averil Cameron: Procopius and the Sixth century . Pp. xiii + . Rout- ledge, . £.. Procopius and the Sixth century was first published by Duckworth just over a decade ago. The cover has changed from an equestrian Justinian I to a rather murky photograph of the interior of the church of SS. Sergius and Bacchus, but the contents remain the same. Nevertheless, the republication of this seminal work affords a welcome opportunity for the reappraisal of Cameron’s interpretation in the light of more recent contributions as well as for a more general survey of sixth-century scholarship. The objective of Cameron’s book was deceptively simple: to understand Procopius, who seemed such a puzzle because of the apparently diverse and contrasting nature of his three surviving works: the Wars classicising histori- ography, the Secret History a blistering attack on Justinian and his reign, the Buildings an imperial panegyric, focusing on the emperor’s building activity. Cameron argued that the puzzle was an illusion fostered by persistent mis- conceptions of Procopius as a rational throwback to the classical world, that the Wars has in fact much in common with the other two works and is inti- mately entwined with them and that the primacy accorded the Wars and the bland acceptance of its classicism are equally mistaken. To this end she approached the Secret History and the Buildings before the Wars . In the course of her examination she characterises the Secret History as an ‘angry pamphlet, finished in parts, but without much that was new to contribute to opposition literature over and above its scandal value’; she maintains that the Buildings ‘represents Procopius’ “real” views about em- peror and empire’; and she views the Wars as cast in the tradition of classi- cising historiography but by an author whose talents were limited.

  • Alan Douglas Edward Cameron
    Alan Douglas Edward Cameron 13 March 1938–31 July 2017 elected Fellow of the British Academy 1975 by ROGER S. BAGNALL Fellow of the Academy Biographical Memoirs of Fellows of the British Academy, XVII, 229–246 Posted 9 November 2018. © British Academy 2018. ALAN CAMERON Alan D. E. Cameron died on 31 July 2017. He was one of the leading scholars of the literature and history of the later Roman world and at the same time a wide-ranging classical philologist whose work encompassed above all the Greek and Latin poetic tradition from Hellenistic to Byzantine times but also aspects of late antique art. He was born at Windsor on 13 March 1938, the son of Douglas and Bertha Cameron. His father’s family originated in the Scottish Highlands village of Culbokie, north of Inverness. Douglas Cameron was in the insurance business and Bertha a housewife. Alan grew up in Egham, Surrey, and in 1946, along with his lifelong friend John North, entered Colet Court, the preparatory school for St Paul’s School, where his father had been a pupil (and where his younger brother Geoffrey also studied, as would Alan’s son Daniel in his turn). Although his parents did not have intellectual interests, they were supportive of their son’s precocious academic gifts and let him live in a ‘shed’ in their back garden, where he had room for his books and peaceful condi- tions for study; Geoffrey describes it as a ‘semi-permanent chalet construction’. He learned classical languages, begun at Colet Court, very quickly, and his academic bent was already visible in these preparatory years, as can be seen from an episode that I owe to Michael Yudkin, another classmate at Colet Court: ‘The stocky and powerful Mathematics master, Mr Robinson, was in charge of games pitches.

  • The Mediterranean World in Late Antiquity, 395-600 CE
    The Mediterranean World in Late Antiquity AD 395–600 The Mediterranean World in Late Antiquity AD 395–600 deals with the exciting period commonly known as ‘late antiquity’ – the fifth and sixth centuries. The Roman empire in the west was splitting into separate Germanic kingdoms, while the Near East, still under Roman rule from Constantinople, maintained a dense population and flourishing urban culture until the Persian and Arab invasions of the early seventh century. Averil Cameron places her emphasis on the material and literary evidence for cultural change and offers a new and original challenge to traditional assumptions of ‘decline and fall’ and ‘the end of antiquity’. The book draws on the recent spate of scholarship on this period to discuss in detail such controversial issues as the effectiveness of the late Roman army, the late antique city and the nature of economic exchange and cultural life. With its extensive annotation, it provides a lively, and often critical introduction to earlier approaches to the period, from Edward Gibbon’s Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire to the present day. No existing book in English provides so detailed or up-to-date an introduction to the history of both halves of the empire in this crucial period, or discusses existing views in such a challenging way. Averil Cameron is a leading specialist on late antiquity, having written about the period and taught it for many years. This book has much to say to historians of all periods. It will be particularly welcomed by teachers and students of both ancient and medieval history.
