Learning outcomes

The course consists of two different sections (1, 2), 6 CFU each (30 hours = 15 lectures each one); section 2 is addressed to students needing to gain 12 CFU of Roman history LM.

Section 2, i.e. “Rome and the near East: from Trajan to Julian”, aims to the acquisition of the essential knowledges and methods in order to reconstruct a part of the centuries-old history of the relationship and clash between the two largest ancient empires competing for the supremacy in Mesopotamia and neighboring areas. Students are expected to learn Near-Eastern ancient history in its correct chronological developments; at the end of the course, they will be able to: 1) make a proper use of the different sources and documents; 2) reconstruct the historical processes applying the correct methodology; 3) understand the variety of Near-Eastern cultures, as well as the complexity of both the geographic context and the ethnical background.

Program

part 2 - The ancient history of Middle-Eastern regions will be outlined in its main steps. Among the main subjects that will be considered, some crucial topics will be especially focused on: the Roman expansion under the Antonines and the Severians; the rise of the Sasanians and the Roman military crisis; Valerianus and the battle of Edessa; the military campaign and the death of Julianus.
