Abstract

In this book, Sara Phang explores the ideals and realities of Roman military discipline, which regulated the behaviour of soldiers in combat and their punishment, as well as economic aspects of their service, including compensation and other benefits, work and consumption. This thematically-organized study analyzes these aspects of discipline, using both literary and documentary sources. Phang emphasizes social and cultural conflicts in the Roman army. Contrary to the impression that Roman emperors 'bought' their soldiers and indulged them, discipline restrained such behaviour and legitimized and stabilized the imperial power. Phang argues that emperors and aristocratic commanders gained prestige from imposing discipline, while displaying leadership in person and a willingness to compromise with a restive soldiery.

Abstract

IIe siècle après Jésus-Christ : Rome est à son apogée. Son empire, immense, s'étend de l'Atlantique à la Mer noire, de la Méditerranée aux confins de l'Orient. Pierre angulaire du système impérial, l'armée multiplie les conquêtes et assure leur pérennité. Sa réputation est sans égale. Reflet des circonstances politiques, économiques et sociales, elle est pourtant loin d'être une armée parfaite. Désertions, passages à l'ennemi, mutineries ne sont pas rares. Aussi les Césars se sont-ils attachés, en recourant aux punitions, aux récompenses, et avant tout à la discipline, à faire de l'ensemble une machine de guerre efficace. Machine de guerre qui eut des moments de faiblesse, connut de cuisantes défaites et profita de circonstances extérieures favorables, comme la division de ses ennemis. Nourri aux meilleures sources, croisant les textes littéraires, juridiques, les inscriptions et les résultats des fouilles archéologiques, l'ouvrage de Catherine Wolff offre une synthèse vivante de cette histoire militaire, de l'époque républicaine à la mort de l'empereur Commode en 192 après J-C.

Abstract

Despite the importance of warfare in the collapse of the Roman Empire, there is no modern, comprehensive study available. This book discusses the practice of warfare in Europe, from both Roman and barbarian perspectives, in the late fourth and early fifth centuries. It analyses the military practices and capabilities of the Romans and their northern enemies at policy, strategic, operational, and tactical levels, and covers civil wars, sieges, and naval warfare. Dr Elton analyses in depth the issue of barbarization, and shows that it did not affect the efficiency of the Roman army. Other sections of the book discuss organization, fortifications, and equipment.

Abstract

Seeking peace through strength, emperor Hadrian (117-139) went to Numidia in summer 128 to reviewthe fighting skills of Rome's African army. In speeches to the troops, he reviewed the maneuvers hewitnessed. Afterwards the army recorded the speeches in an inscription on the parade ground atLambaesis. Though shortened and broken by gaps, these are the only surviving speeches of an ancientemperor to his soldiers. As our liveliest, richest, and most authentic source for understanding the trainingand fighting skills of the Roman army, they offer unparalleled insight.
