Spartacus (109?–71 bce), the slave who rebelled against Rome, has been a source of endless fascination, the subject of myth-making in his own time, and of movie-making in ours. Hard facts about the man have always yielded to romanticized tales and mystifications. In this riveting, compact account, Aldo Schiavone rescues Spartacus from the murky regions of legend and brings him squarely into the arena of serious history. Schiavone transports us to Italy of the first century bce, where the pervasive institution of slavery dominates all aspects of Roman life. In this historic landscape, carefully reconstructed by the author, we encounter Spartacus, who is enslaved after deserting from the Roman army to avoid fighting against his native Thrace. Imprisoned in Capua and trained as a gladiator, he leads an uprising that will shake the empire to its foundations. While the grandeur of the Spartacus story has always been apparent, its political significance has been less clear. What were his ambitions? Often depicted as the leader of a class rebellion that was fierce in intent but ragtag in makeup and organization, Spartacus emerges here in a very different light: the commander of an army whose aim was to incite Italy to revolt against Rome and to strike at the very heart of the imperial system. Surprising, persuasive, and highly original, Spartacus challenges the lore and illuminates the reality of a figure whose achievements, and whose ultimate defeat, are more extraordinary and moving than the fictions we make from them.

"How far were appointments in the Roman Empire based on merit? Did experience matter? What difference did social rank make? This innovative study of the Principate examines the career outcomes of senators and knights by social category. Contrasting patterns emerge from a new database of senatorial careers. Although the highest appointments could reflect experience, a clear preference for the more aristocratic senators is also seen. Bias is visible even in the major army commands and in the most senior civilian posts nominally filled by ballot. In equestrian appointments, successes by the less experienced again suggest the power of social advantage. Senatorial recruitment gradually opened up to include many provincials but Italians still kept their hold on the higher social groupings. The book also considers the senatorial career more widely, while a final section examines slave careers and the phenomenon of voluntary slavery"--

La principale distinction relative au droit des personnes est que tous les hommes sont soit libres soit esclaves (Institutes, I, 9). Gaius souligne ainsi la place fondamentale de l’esclavage dans la Rome impériale. La barrière de la liberté était si structurante et le recours au travail servile pratiqué à une telle échelle, que la société romaine mérite assurément le qualificatif d’esclavagiste. Certes, la condition servile était inférieure, mais la concevoir en terme de barrière ou de strate horizontale, séparant les esclaves et les libres, se révèle insuffisant. Dans une population servile à la hiérarchie très marquée, la condition personnelle des esclaves dépendait beaucoup des relations verticales, qui unissaient chacun d’entre eux à leur maître. Tel est le sujet de ce livre collectif. L’examen prioritaire de la documentation épigraphique vise à en restituer la complexité. Il fait place à des serviteurs, à des domesticités et à des maîtres d’une grande diversité, dans différentes régions de l’Empire. Les grandes étapes de la vie des hommes et des femmes réduits en esclavage (l’enfance, la mort, en passant parfois par l’affranchissement) sont prises en compte. C’est aussi dans ses multiples dimensions, du droit aux affects, que la relation entre esclaves et maîtres se trouve mise en lumière.
