Abstract

The Song dynasty (960-1279) has been characterized by its pre-eminent civil culture and military weakness. This groundbreaking work demonstrates that the civil dominance of the eleventh century was the product of a half-century of continuous warfare and ruthless political infighting. The spectacular culture of the eleventh century, one of the high points in Chinese history, was built on the bloody foundation of the conquests of the tenth century. Peter Lorge examines how, rather than a planned and inevitable reunification of the Chinese empire, the foundation of the Song was an uncertain undertaking, dependent upon highly contingent battles, both military and political, whose outcome was always in doubt. Song civil culture grew out of the successful military campaigns that created the dynasty and, as the need for war and armies diminished, the need for civil officials grew. The Song dynasty's successful waging of war led ultimately to peace.

Abstract

The Ektaxis kat' Alanōn ("Deployment Against the Alans") is a work of unusual importance written by the Roman consul Arrian. It takes the form of a series of instructions, whose aim is firstly to assemble into marching order a variety of individually named military units (identifiable as part of the Hadrianic garrison of the Roman province of Cappadocia), and secondly to deploy them in line of battle against a mounted foe, the Alans of the title. A third section then gives advice on how the battle should unfold.Only a single copy of the work survives, preserved in a tenth-century manuscript, and the Greek text has required occasional emendation in order to clarify Arrian's original meaning. This volume presents an improved Greek text, the first since 1928, with a Loeb-style facing-page English translation. As well as an in-depth introduction to Arrian, his work, and his governorship of Cappadocia, there is also, for the first time ever, a detailed 130-page commentary on the Ektaxis. The volume is fully indexed and will be of interest to students and scholars of Arrian, as well as Roman army enthusiasts.
