Abstract

Book 29 opens with the judicial terror in Antioch following the discovery of a plot against the emperor in the East, Valens, who played an active role in hunting down and executing the culprits. The account of these internal troubles is balanced by two long chapters at the end of the book dealing with warfare in Africa and Central Europe. The general Theodosius mercilessly crushed the revolt of the Moorish prince Firmus, while the emperor in the West, Valentinian, had to deal with violent invasions of the Quadi and the Sarmatians. The two central chapters are devoted to different aspects of Valentinian’s character, his cruelty on the one hand, his diligence in reinforcing the border defenses on the other.

Abstract

Nach fast 300 Jahren, die seit der Verfassung der Annales durch Tacitus vergingen, erlebt die römische Historiographie, ähnlich wie die gesamte griechisch-römische Kultur, im 4. Jahrhundert ihre erneute Blütezeit. Der bekannteste Geschichtsschreiber in dieser Periode war ein Grieche Ammianus Marcellinus. Die Geschichtswerke des Nicomachus Flavianus, der seine Annales dem Kaiser Theodosius widmete, sowie der Autoren des 5. Jahrhunderts, die möglicherweise Ammians Res Gestae fortsetzten, wie etwa Sulpicius Aleksander oder Frigeridus sind hingegen völlig verloren gegangen. Im griechischen Bereich

Abstract

Ammianus Marcellinus, Greek by birth but writing in Latin c. AD 390, was the last great Roman historian. His writings are an indispensable basis for our knowledge of the late Roman world. This book represents a collection of papers analysing Ammianus's writings from a variety of perspective, including Ammianus as historian of, and participant in, Julian's Persian campaign, his identification with traditional religious attitudes and values in Rome and his view of the Persian Magi. The contributors engage especially with the concept of self-identification. They address the tension of Ammianus'

Abstract

Book 26 of Ammianus' Res Gestae is the first of the hexad which deals with the rule of the emperors Valentinian and Valens (364-378). In the first five chapters Ammianus describes the election of Valentinian, who appointed his brother Valens as his co-ruler, and subsequently divided the empire into an eastern and a western part. The next chapters deal with the revolt of Procopius. They offer the most detailed account of a coup d' état in Roman historiography. The memory of Julian, whose death was the central theme of the preceding book, is still very much alive. None of the three protagonists of Book 26 was remotely his equal. His loss meant a turn for the worse in the history of Rome.
