Thesis Examination Committee Abstract The objective of this thesis is to fully deconstruct and isolate the considerable Samnite contributions to the Roman state during the period of the Samnite Wars. Although the literary sources have espoused a Samnitic origin for many Roman institutions, very little academic focus has been directed towards these claims. Scholars have generally tended to focus on one or two of these claims only as part of a larger argument.

  • The Soldier's Life: Martial Virtues and Hegemonic Masculinity in the Early
    The Soldier’s Life: Martial Virtues and Hegemonic Masculinity in the Early Byzantine Empire Michael Edward Stewart BA, MA A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in May 2012 School of History, Philosophy, Religion, and Classics - Abstract This dissertation argues that martial virtues and images of the soldier’s life represented an essential aspect of early Byzantine masculine ideology. It contends that in many of the visual and literary sources from the fourth to the seventh centuries CE, conceptualisations of the soldier’s life and the ideal manly life were often the same. By taking this stance, the dissertation challenges the view found in many recent studies on Late Roman masculinity that a Christian ideal of manliness based on extreme ascetic virtues and pacifism had superseded militarism and courage as the dominant component of hegemonic masculine ideology. Though the study does not reject the relevance of Christian constructions of masculinity for helping one understand early Byzantine society and its diverse representations of masculinity, it seeks to balance these modern studies’ often heavy emphasis on hagiographical Christian sources with the more customary attitudes we find in the secular, and indeed some Christian texts, praising military virtues as an essential aspect of Roman manliness. Indeed, the reader of this dissertation will find that the “manliness of war” is on display in much of the surviving early Byzantine literature, secular and Christian. Chapter 1 examines how modern historians formulate and use “masculinity” as a tool of historical inquiry. It provides a brief summary of the growth of gender studies in the past forty years, and explores some the current debates surrounding “masculinity” as a viable tool of historical enquiry.

ANCIENT ROME 1 At the height of the Roman Empire, Rome's influence reached as far north as Hadrian's Wall in present day England, as far south as Egypt, and as far east as present day Turkey and Syria. I) INTRODUCTION Ancient Rome was a civilization that started as a small agricultural community on the Italian Peninsula in the 9th century BC. In its twelve centuries of existence, Roman civilization came to dominate Western Europe and the area surrounding the Mediterranean Sea. Ancient Rome can be divided into three periods. Founded in 753 BC, it was first ruled by kings. Then, in 509 BC, a republic was established. The republic became an empire in 27 BC. That empire lasted for almost 500 years. But in the fourth century the Roman Empire was divided into two parts. Soon, the western part of the empire went into decline and its ruler was deposed by a barbarian leader in 476. The eastern part became the Byzantine Empire and lived on for another millennium. Because of the Roman Empire, Roman culture spread to Western Europe and the area surrounding the Mediterranean Sea.

  • The Evolution of the Late Roman World
    The Evolution of the Late Roman World: Relgious, Political, and Military Developments in Late Antiquity by Corry Atkinson May 2020 Director of Thesis: Frank Romer, PhD Major Department: History This thesis examines selected religious, political, and military developments of the late Roman Empire from the end of the second century through the end of the reign of Justinian I. The specific developments under consideration are the military reforms that occurred throughout the history of the Roman Empire and the growing importance of the Roman cavalry, the spread of Christianity, and the complex relationship between Christianity and politics in the late Roman world. These developments allowed the Roman Empire to transition from a concrete political entity, which ceased to exist in 476, into a set of various cultural ideals that influenced most of western Europe throughout the middle ages.

  • Ancient Rome Tossups 1. Most of These Structures Were Actually
    Ancient Rome Tossups 1. Most of these structures were actually buried underground, thereby preserving them. One of the best preserved examples of this type of structure is found in Segovia, Spain. By the third century AD, Rome had eleven of these structures, which had purposes in farming, industry, and public benefit. For the point, name this kind of structure commonly used by the ancient Romans to transport water. ANSWER: Aqueducts 2. This region underwent a series of Roman conquests, the last of which ended in 51 BC. Roman control of at least part of this territory lasted for five centuries, until the fall of Rome itself. For the point, name this region that was taken over by the Franks during the decline of Rome, and encompasses present day France. ANSWER: Gaul 3. This Roman emperor once had two floating palaces constructed for himself, and was described as being self-absorbed for initiating such boastful projects. He succeeded Tiberius, his great- uncle, and preceded Claudius, his uncle, to the throne. For the point, name this Roman emperor who once planned to make his horse a consul, and received his name from the Latin caliga, meaning "little soldier's boot". ANSWER: Caligula 4. This ancient Roman structure is approximately 125 feet tall, including its large pedestal. It is famous for its spiral bas relief, which artistically describes the wars between the Romans and Dacians. Although it is neither Doric, Ionic, nor Corinthian in design, it commemorates the victory of a namesake Roman emperor in the Dacian Wars. For the point, name this Roman column which stands to this day.

  • Urban Legends: Myths of the Founding of Rome
    Name __________________________________________ Date ___________ Class _______ Period _____ Urban Legends: Myths of the Founding of Rome Why Listen to Legends? Very little is certain about the history of the Roman Kingdom, as virtually no written records from that time survive, and the histories about it that were written much later during the Republic and Empire are largely based on legends. However, there is still a great deal that can be learned from legends. Not only is it possible that, underneath the exaggeration and alteration, they contain some historical kernels of truth, but it is also possible to learn about the Romans by studying the way they present their own past and by analyzing the changes that occur to these legends over time. According to tradition, the history of the Roman Kingdom began with the founding of the city of Rome, traditionally dated to 753 BCE with settlements around the Palatine Hill along the river Tiber in Central Italy, and ended with the overthrow of the kings and the establishment of the Republic in about 509 BCE. 1. Support the following argument: “If you want to learn about the Ancient Romans, studying their legends is a waste of time because…” 2.
