Strategy
Examining the grand but unfulfilled decisions and plans of various leaders and races from the ancient world allows us to learn a great deal about ancient strategy in warfare.‘Strategy’ looks at a selection of the stories that are generally ignored or dismissed by modern scholars. Such stories tell us a lot about how the classical culture saw the world of warfare, for example: the Athenian expedition to Sicily during the Peloponnesian War in 415 b…

Dio of Prusa and the Flavian Dynasty
After his return from exile in A.D. 96 Dio of Prusa claims that even before it he had known the homes and tables of rich men, not only private individuals but satraps and kings (i.e. governors and emperors, Or . 7.66). Following the lead of Philostratus ( V.A . 5.27–38) modern scholars have seen Dio as a confidant of the Flavian dynasty: amicus to Vespasian, possibly a special envoy of Vespasian to the Grek east, amicus to Titus, and friend and a…

Roman ways of thinking about the Roman empire and its neighbours largely precluded the creation of structures similar to those of the post-Renaissance West. To understand Roman international relations, this chapter first looks at the ideological frameworks within which they operated, and then deals with other aspects such decision-making and the role of governors. Under the Republic, the Senate received and sent embassies. Under the Principate, t…
