Beskrivning

Fergus Millar’s works have renewed our approach of the Roman world. He had studied the functioning of the Roman Empire in the perspective of the Emperor’s activities, from Augustus to Constantine; as well as the Republic during the last two centuries BC in order to revalue the people within the institutions; and finally the Near East from Augustus to Constantine, and then to the Muslim conquest. He uses to be engaged with the whole evidence (literary, epigraphic, papyrological, juridical and archaeological) that he examines closely with revived view-points. Distinguished and younger scholars have dealt, during a seminar, with the main aspects of Millar’s research, its reception and the reactions it has raised, and proposed surveys about current inquiries, as well as perspectives for future studies.Contributors: Clifford Ando, Stéphane Benoist, Philippe Blaudeau, Peter Eich, Frédéric Hurlet, John Ma, Fergus Millar, Francisco Pina Polo, and Jean-Baptiste Yon.

Recensioner i media

"The volume stands as a modest but eloquent testimony to the deep influence of Millar's published scholarship over the last fifty years." - Carlos F. Noreña, in: Sehepunkte 13 (2013), Nr. 9 (15.09.2013)"Die Beiträge bieten mehr als nostalgische Rückblicke auf ein imposantes Lebenswerk, nämlich Anregungen und Perspektiven für die zukünftige Forschung – und das ist sicher im Sinne des Geehrten." - Karl-Joachim Hölkeskamp, in: Historischen Zeitschrift, 298/1, pp. 151-153
