  • The Politics of Roman Memory in the Age of Justinian DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the D
    The Politics of Roman Memory in the Age of Justinian DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Marion Woodrow Kruse, III Graduate Program in Greek and Latin The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Anthony Kaldellis, Advisor; Benjamin Acosta-Hughes; Nathan Rosenstein Copyright by Marion Woodrow Kruse, III 2015 ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the use of Roman historical memory from the late fifth century through the middle of the sixth century AD. The collapse of Roman government in the western Roman empire in the late fifth century inspired a crisis of identity and political messaging in the eastern Roman empire of the same period. I argue that the Romans of the eastern empire, in particular those who lived in Constantinople and worked in or around the imperial administration, responded to the challenge posed by the loss of Rome by rewriting the history of the Roman empire. The new historical narratives that arose during this period were initially concerned with Roman identity and fixated on urban space (in particular the cities of Rome and Constantinople) and Roman mythistory. By the sixth century, however, the debate over Roman history had begun to infuse all levels of Roman political discourse and became a major component of the emperor Justinian’s imperial messaging and propaganda, especially in his Novels. The imperial history proposed by the Novels was aggressivley challenged by other writers of the period, creating a clear historical and political conflict over the role and import of Roman history as a model or justification for Roman politics in the sixth century.

  • Canabtan Law Zimee
    Ube Canabtan law zimee. VOL. XXX1II. OCTOBER, 1913. No. 10. THE INDEBTEDNESS OF MODERN JURISPRUD- ENCE TO MEDIEVAL ITALIAN LAW. How much the world owes to Italian genius and labours! For Italy is " the mother of us all." The lamp of civilization has been handed on from ]ome to modern nations by Italian runners. By Italy learning was re-established and the fine arts revived; Italy is truly called " the mother of universities and the saviour of learning." European commerce was ori- ginally revived by Italy, after the flood oT barbarian invasions of Europe had spent itself. By Italians Honan law was re- covered from antiquity, adapted for use iin later times, and forever implanted as a living force in our modern civilization. These grand achievemnents were accomplished by a people labouring under perhaps the worst political handicap known to history. For over thirteen centuries prior to 1.871 Italy never enjoyed any of the blessings of. a political union, and o was either a prey to foreign invaders or torn asunder b*y fratricidal wars. During these imany centuries Italy was but " a geographical expression "-to use Metteruich's illuminating description. Modern united Italy is very youthful Italy is not yet fifty years old.' The exuberancc of Italian patriotism in the recent war with Turkey bears witness to this youthful- ness of modern Italy, which so ardently rejoiced ill its oppor- tunity to display national power. The beginnings of Italian law-using the terni " Italian in its modern sense-start with the emergence of Italy as a separate country out of the fifth century ruins of the ]loman Empire of the West, finally extinguished in 476.

Stuart add en^ Preparation of the Code of Justinian, one part of a three-part presentation of Roman law published over the three-year period from 533 -535 A.D, had not been stymied by the occupation of Rome by the Rugians and the Ostrogoths. In most ways these occupations worked no material hardship on the empire, either militarily or civilly. The occupying Goths and their Roman counterparts developed symbiotic legal and social relationships, and in several instances, the new Germanic rulers sought and received approval of their rule both from the Western Empire, seated in Constantinople, and the Pope. Rugian Odoacer and Ostrogoth Theodoric each, in fact, claimed respect for Roman law, and the latter ruler held the Roman title patricius et magister rnilitum. In sum, the Rugians and the Ostrogoths were content to absorb much of Roman law, and to work only such modifications as were propitious in the light of centuries of Gothic customary law.

  • Justinian's Redaction
    JUSTINIAN'S REDACTION. "Forhim there are no dry husks of doctrine; each is the vital develop- ment of a living germ. There is no single bud or fruit of it but has an ancestry of thousands of years; no topmost twig that does not greet with the sap drawn from -he dark burrows underground; no fibre torn away from it but has been twisted and strained by historic wheels. For him, the Roman law, that masterpiece of national growth, is no sealed book ..... ... but is a reservoir of doctrine, drawn from the watershed of a world's civilization!'* For to-day's student of law, what worth has the half- dozen years' activity of a few Greek-speakers by the Bos- phorus nearly fourteen centuries ago? Chancellor Kent says: "With most of the European nations, and in the new states of Spanish America, and in one of the United States, it (Roman law) constitutes the principal basis of their unwritten or common law. It exerts a very considerable influence on our own municipal law, and particularly on those branches of it which are of equity and admiralty jurisdiction, or fall within the cognizance of the surrogate or consistorial courts . It is now taught and obeyed not only in France, Spain, Germany, Holland, and Scotland, but in the islands of the Indian Ocean, and on the banks of the Mississippi and St. Lawrence. So true, it seems, are the words of d'Agnesseau, that 'the grand destinies of Rome are not yet accomplished; she reigns throughout the world by her reason, after having ceased to reign by her authority?'" And of the honored jurists whose names are carved on the stones of the Law Building of the University of Pennsyl- vania another may be cited as viewing the matter from a different standpoint.

  • The Creation and Transmission of Justinian's Novels*
    LAW LIBRARY JOURNAL Vol. 102:3 [2010-22] The Creation and Transmission of Justinian’s Novels* timothy g. Kearley** Drawing primarily upon the most authoritative foreign-language sources, this article provides an English-language survey of how compilations of Justinian’s Novels were created and passed along over nearly two thousand years. Introduction ¶1 The basic history of Justinian’s sixth century codification of Roman law is no secret. Literature about the Corpus Juris Civilis (CJC), as that body of law came to be known, abounds in many languages.1 However, one part of that compilation, the Novellae constitutiones (New Constitutions, or Novels), has been less widely discussed than the others. Moreover it appears that, in particular, detailed descrip- tions of how editions of the Novels were transmitted from Justinian’s time to our own era have not been published in English. ¶2 Nineteenth- and twentieth-century Continental writers provided extremely detailed accounts in German, French, Italian, and sometimes Latin of the different versions of the Novels and other parts of the CJC—how they were created, used, and passed along during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, and how scholars gradually reconstructed the texts to create the edition now accepted as the stan- dard. This is not surprising, as the Continent was necessarily the locus of research on the subject. Most of the ancient manuscripts were there, and their national legal systems were based on, and still looked to, Roman law. Writers in English cite Biener, Krüger, Noailles, and Wenger, especially, for their lengthy descriptions of the manuscripts and these processes.2 * © Timothy G.
