War and Community in Late Antiquity
Late Antiquity (ca. 250–600 CE) was a world at war: barbarian migrations, civil wars, raids, and increasingly porous frontiers affected millions of its inhabitants. While military and political historians have long grappled with this history, scholars of late antique society and culture rarely interrogate the consequences of near constant warfare on civilian populations, fighting forces, and the built environment. War and Community in Late Antiqu…
Memórias de imperadores vivos, orações fúnebres e preces em suf ́rágio para os príncipes falecidos
A leitura dos nomes dos falecidos durante a missa, recomendada por Cipriano especialmente em referncia aos que morreram pela f (Cypr. Epp. XII.2; I.2), era uma prtica difundida durante o sculo IV, na convico de que a prece beneficiava as almas (Cyr. Cath. myst. V.8). A isso alude Agostinho, lembrando que, alm dos nomes dos mrtires, tambm os das virgens falecidas eram recitados no altar (August.Virg.46), alm de fazer votos para que os leitores das…
Memorie d'imperatori vivi, orazioni funebri e preghiere in suffragio per i principi defunti
Sunto: Le orazioni funerarie per Valentiniano II e Teodosio I, così come due lettere che il vescovo Ambrogio mandò a Teodosio I, subito dopo aver ricevuto da lui la notizia della vittoria al fiume Frigidus, mostrano che il vescovo parlò degli imperatori e agli imperatori senza dimenticare la sua nascita e il suo rango senatorio nel nuovo ruolo vescovile. Dal momento che egli conosceva i principali motivi, che utilizzavano i senatori per suscitare…

Les évêques et l'État de Constantin aux royaumes « barbares ». Pour une histoire socio-politique de l'épiscopat dans l'Antiquité tardive
I. En faveur des chrétiens, des juifs et des païens : Constantin entre privilèges fiscaux et constructions sacrées L’analyse des constitutions impériales rassemblées dans le Code théodosien, le Code justinien et d’autres sources juridiques donne une vision d’ensemble des privilèges fiscaux que Constantin accorda non seulement aux « catholiques », comme la documentation d’origine chrétienne le rappelle, mais aussi aux prêtres des cultes païens tra…
The Famous ‘Altar of Victory Controversy’ in Rome
The belief that a part of Roman aristocracy did not remain inactive in the face of the anti-pagan measures at the end of the fourth century dominated modern historiography. It is rooted particularly in the twentieth-century studies because of the conviction—typical in a climate of cold war—that great ideologies can divide the world into power blocs by polarizing the collective imagination. Relying largely on the accounts of Christian sources and …
Pagans and Christians in Late Antique Rome
Strange Death of Pagan Rome
Addressing the problem of the relationship between pagans and Christians cannot be separated from assessing the nature of the relationship that linked or divided the members of two very different religions. Te model of conflict has been disseminated by the Hungarian scholar András Alföldi, who in 1934 presented a Christian Constantine in irreconcilable conflict with a pagan Rome and later (most notably in 1958, in a seminar conference at the Warb…
