Rome and the Barbarians, 100 B.C.A.D. 400 (Ancient Society and History),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
The barbarians of antiquity, so long a fixture of the public imagination as the savages who sacked and destroyed Rome, emerge in this colorful, richly textured history as a much more complexand far more interestingfactor in the expansion, and eventual unmaking, of the Roman Empire. Thomas S. Burns marshals an abundance of archeological and literary evidence, as well as three decades of study and experience, to bring forth an unusually farsighted and wideranging account of the relations between Romans and nonRomans along the frontiers of western Europe from the last years of the Republic into late antiquity.Looking at a 500year time span beginning with early encounters between barbarians and Romans around 100 B.C. and ending with the spread of barbarian settlement in the western Empire around A.D. 400, Burns removes the barbarians from their narrow niche as invaders and conquerors and places them in the broader context of neighbors, (sometimes bitter) friends, and settlers. His nuanced history subtly shows how Rome's relations with the barbariansand vice versaslowly but inexorably evolved from general ignorance, hostility, and suspicion toward tolerance, synergy, and integration. What he describes is, in fact, a drawnout period of acculturation, characterized more by continuity than by change and conflict and leading to the creation of a new Romanobarbarian hybrid society and culture that anticipated the values and traditions of medieval civilization.
