Dialogues in Roman Imperialism: Power, Discourse, and Discrepant Experience in the Roman Empire by D.J. Mattingly
Requirements: .PDF reader, 5.6 Mb
Overview: This book has its genesis in a session at the First Roman Archaeology Conference held at the University of Reading from 31 March to 2 April, 1995. The aim of the session was to construct a series of linked discussions on aspects of Roman imperialism and native responses to Roman rule. The starting-point for the debate was my own increasing unease concerning the tone of much recent scholarship on Roman imperialism. On the one hand, cosy and uncritical views about the civilizing benefits of Roman rule still abound; alternatively, postcolonial perspectives of imperialism are starting to make an impact on studies of the Roman Empire, but are frequently criticized for simply replacing one set of socio-political stereotypes with another. Part of the problem lies in the monolithic nature of most visions of Roman imperialism, whether praising it or damning it utterly. Such studies give the impression of a static and unvaried structure and suggest that there is, and was, only a single viewpoint.
