Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of the Life of Hadrian Prior to His Accession The other part of the Vita is characterized by the vagueness and looseness of its style, and by its strange words and phrases, as well as by the trivial, personal and frequently scandalous quality of its notices. It deals much with anecdotes. No at tention is paid to chronology; the statements oat in air. This part of the Vita has been called the biographic part (bio graphischer It is violently hostile to Hadrian; by final analysis it represents the gossip and scandal about him which his many enemies of the senatorial class set in motion. Spar fianns had some history or biography of senatorial origin be fore him and combined its use with that of the work of the Anonymous. Now the latter was friendly to Hadrian, hence the Vita as it stands today bristles with contradictions. Spar tianus was a wretched compiler; he copied his sources word for word, and patched his excerpts roughly together without making any attempt to harmonize them in style or to recon cile the contradictions in content. He used the work of the Anonymous in a manner at once arbitrary and careless, he has left out much of importance, and was apparently inclined to sacrifice good historical notices to make room for bio graphic bits he considered interesting.

Download or read book Hadrian written by Anthony R Birley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hadrian's reign (AD 117-138) was a watershed in the history of the Roman Empire. Hadrian abandoned his predecessor Trajan's eastern conquests - Mesopotamia and Armenia - trimmed down the lands beyond the lower Danube, and constructed new demarcation lines in Germany, North Africa, and most famously Hadrian's Wall in Britain, to delimit the empire. The emperor Hadrian, a strange and baffling figure to his contemporaries, had a many-sided personality. Insatiably ambitious, and a passionate Philhellene, he promoted the 'Greek Renaissance' extravagantly. But his attempt to Hellenize the Jews, including the outlawing of circumcision, had disastrous consequences, and his 'Greek' love of the beautiful Bithynian boy Antinous ended in tragedy. No comprehensive account of Hadrian's life and reign has been attempted for over seventy years. In Hadrian: The Restless Emperor, Anthony Birley brings together the new evidence from inscriptions and papyri, and up-to-date and in-depth examination of the work of other scholars on aspects of Hadrian's reign and policies such as the Jewish war, the coinage, Hadrian's building programme in Rome, Athens and Tivoli, and his relationship with his favourite, Antinous, to provide a thorough and fascinating account of the private and public life of a man who, though hated when he died, left an indelible mark on the Roman Empire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a historical novel by the American classical scholar, Frank Frost Abbot. It deals with the lives of the Roman common people, their language and literature, their occupations and amusements, and with their social, political and economic conditions. We are interested in the common people of Rome because they made the Roman Empire what it was. They carried the Roman standards to the Euphrates and the Atlantic: they lived abroad as traders, farmer and soldiers to Romanize the provinces. Or they stayed at home, working in different professions to supply the needs of the capital.
