L'empereur Hadrien (76-138) L’empereur Hadrien (76-138) Elève de cinquième au lycée Berthollet d’Annecy en 1963-1964, j’ai eu la chance d’avoir un professeur charismatique, Michel Falque-Vert (à cette époque lointaine, collège et lycée ne faisaient qu’un, les jeunes agrégés animaient simultanément des classes de lycée et de collège, avant de poursuivre leur carrière à l’Université ). L’histoire romaine, qui formait le cœur du programme d’histoire de 5 ème , me passionnait : à dix ans je savais par cœur la liste des empereurs romains. Nerva, Trajan, Hadrien, Antonin, Marc-Aurèle… suivant la tradition classique, reprise par Renan, les manuels d’histoire scolaire et universitaires, Mallet-Isaac, Léon Homo, présentaient la dynastie des Antonins comme une sorte d’âge d’or, et vantaient les qualités humaines et militaires de Trajan. De son successeur ils parlaient moins, et il me fallut attendre la lecture des Mémoires d’Hadrien de Marguerite Yourcenar, sur un lit d’hôpital, en novembre 1971, pour découvrir ce personnage exceptionnel, à la fois par la longueur de son règne, par l’ampleur de son œuvre, par ses voyages et par sa personnalité. « Pour Marguerite Yourcenar, Hadrien est le leader politique dont l’Europe a besoin au lendemain de la seconde guerre mondiale : un homme cultivé, un faiseur de paix exerçant le pouvoir de manière éclairée mais ferme, qui ne cache pas ses sentiments amoureux », observe finement Neil MacGregor, directeur du British Museum. Cette vision idéalisée et rétrospective concorde-t-elle avec les travaux des historiens ? Ceux-ci soulignent la divergence des sources : à l’inverse de celle de Trajan, la figure d’Hadrien était loin de faire l’unanimité dans l’Antiquité. Quoi qu’il en soit, Hadrien est depuis lors un de mes grands points fixes, et inspira une de mes plus célèbres digressions, en classe, en novembre 1996. Pierre-Jean Hormière 76 ap. J.-C. 24 janvier, naissance de Publius Aelius Hadrianus, à Italica (province de Bétique, située au sud de l’Espagne, auj. Santiponce), sous le règne de Vespasien. La famille des Aelii , originaire d’Hadria, en Italie, est installée à Italica, vicus fondé sur le Guadalquivir par Scipion l’Africain. De noblesse récente, elle tire sa fortune du commerce de l’huile d’olive. Le grand-père d’Hadrien, Aelius Hadrianus Marullinus, est sénateur. La famille est apparentée aux Ulpii : le père d’Hadrien, Publius Aelius Hadrianus Afer, est fils d’une sœur du père de Trajan ; Hadrien est donc un petit cousin de Trajan. La sœur aînée d’Hadrien, Domitia Paulina, épousera Servianus, âgé d’environ 30 ans de plus que lui, et qui sera trois fois consul. Hadrien passe ses dix premières années en Espagne. 79 .

Sa mère, Domitia Lucilla maior , se remariera, et aura une fille, Domitia Lucilla minor . 85-90 . Hadrien reçoit à Rome une formation encyclopédique : chant, musique, arith- métique, géométrie, peinture, sculpture, architecture… Il manifeste un véritable amour pour la culture hellénique, qui lui vaudra le surnom, plutôt péjoratif, de Graeculus . Le 19 septembre 86, naissance d’Antonin à Lanuvium. En 88, Hadrien assiste aux Jeux séculaires, donnés par Domitien ; ces jeux sont donnés tous les 110 ans. 91-93 .

  • Jobs in Roman Spain
    JOBS IN ROMAN SPAIN Leonard A. Curchin A l'économie? L'épitaphe peut-être révélera un métier ignoré. (Marc Bloch, Apologie pour l'histoire [Paris 1952] 73) While the range of occupations attested for residents of the city of Rome has been the subject of several studies,1 considerably less attention has been focused upon jobs in the provinces. This disparity may be due partly to an understandably greater interest in the imperial capital than in peripheral regions, but also and perhaps chiefly to the fact that the columbaria of Rome provide convenient, "closed" samples of inscriptions from a single city within limited chronological bounds, whereas the epigraphic evidence (which is by far the largest segment of testimony)2 for provincial jobs, being scattered over vast geographical tracts and extensive periods of time, is far less diagnostic. An analysis of the epitaphs from a single provincial city would in most cases yield only a handful of jobs, while an attempted study of a chronologically restricted sample would be considerably impeded by our inability to date closely the majority of the inscriptions. For better or worse, then, all the inscriptions of a province or region should be studied as a whole, preferably in constant comparison with avail- able literary and iconographie evidence, and the provincial historian may thereby hope to reap a large selection of job titles from his chosen bailiwick.3 32 33 The present paper examines the types of jobs attested for the residents of Spain from the advent of the Romans in the late third century B.C.

Kaiser Traian. In his Dacian conquests, Trajan had already resorted to Syrian auxiliary units, whose veterans, along with Syrian traders, had an important role in the subsequent colonization of Dacia. As part of the inauguration Trajan: Optimus Princeps for a new emperor, these ancient aristocrats would offer up a telling wish. It was during this time that he corresponded with Pliny the Younger on the subject of how to deal with the Christians of Pontustelling Pliny to continue to persecute Christians but not to accept anonymous denunciations in the interests of justice as well as of "the spirit of the age". The senator Pliny had endowed his city of Comum a perpetual right to an annual charge vectigal of thirty thousand sestertii on one of his estates in perpetuity even after his death Pliny's heirs or any subsequent purchaser of the estate being liablewith the rent thus obtained contributing to the maintenance of Pliny's semi-private charitable foundation.

  • Head of Trajan Cast Based on an Original Marble Portrait in the British Museum. Marcus Ulpius Traianus
    Head of Trajan Cast based on an original marble portrait in the British Museum. Marcus Ulpius Traianus (Trajan) was born at Italica in Spain in 53. Trajan was certainly one of the most respected and emulated emperors in Roman history. He attained the rank of consul in 91, and was appointed governor of Upper Germany by the emperor Nerva in 97. Since Nerva’s popularity was waning, he adopted Trajan as his son. In 98 Trajan became the emperor of Rome, thus starting his illustrious career in both warfare and social policy. Like Augustus, an early emperor of Rome, Trajan wished to expand Rome’s borders as far as possible. He fought successful campaigns against both the Dacians and the Parthians and also held commands in Spain, Germany, and the Danube. At home in Rome he enacted social legislation, and began several public works projects such as building the Baths of Trajan and the Via Traiana, which attached to the Via Appia, a major thoroughfare in Italy. With the spoils of war from the Dacian campaign, he built the Forum of Trajan, a marvelous complex with a basilica, Greek and Latin libraries, and a vast marketplace. Trajan’s good deeds ended when he expired in 117, en route to Rome from the battlefield. Trajan’s portraiture, like that of Augustus, remains static, for he is depicted as an “ageless adult” during his entire career, probably because he didn’t become emperor until he was in his mid- forties. There are several styles of Trajanic portraiture but the differences in them are usually quite subtle and have to do with the way Trajan’s hair is styled.
