"This was a time of civil war, anarchy, intrigue, and assassination.Between 193 and 284 the Roman Empire knew more than twenty-five emperors, and an equal number of usurpers. All of them had some measure of success, several of them often ruling different parts of the Empire at the same time. Rome's traditional political institutions slid into vacuity and armies became the Empire's most powerful institutions, proclaiming their own imperial champions and deposing those they held to be incompetent. Yet despite widespread contemporary dismay at such weak government this period was also one in which the boundaries of the Empire remained fairly stable; the rights and privileges of Roman citizenship were extended equally to all free citizens of the Empire; in several regions the economy remained robust in the face of rampant inflation; and literary culture, philosophy, and legal theory flourished. Historians have been discussing how and why this could have been for centuries. Olivier Hekster takes you to the heart of these debates and illustrates the arguments with key contemporary documents.

'?Eeuwenlang is onophoudelijk en onverdroten geëxperimenteerd om voor Romeinse keizers een zo herkenbaar mogelijk imago in elkaar te knutselen?, schrijft Olivier Hekster in Heersende verwachtingen. De hoogleraar oude geschiedenis onderzoekt in deze uitstekende studie hoe de Romeinse alleenheersers zes eeuwen lang hun keizerschap vormgaven, welke reactie ze daarmee opriepen en wat voor invloed dat weer had op de houding van de keizers. Waar volgens veel historici de keizers uit de derde eeuw een verhevener status hadden dan hun voorgangers uit de eerste twee eeuwen van het keizerrijk, stelt Hekster dat keizers van begin af aan een verheerlijkte positie hadden. Maar ze moesten behendig laveren. Romeinen waren allergisch voor koningen. Fier droegen ze uit dat ze sinds het schrikbewind van Tarquinius Superbus geen monarch meer hadden, want een vorst regeerde als een meester over zijn slaaf.Vanaf Caesar was de macht in handen van één persoon en diende tegelijk elke vergelijking met een koning voorkomen te worden. Wie te monarchaal optrad, liep het risico zijn leven te verliezen, laten de voorbeelden zien van Caesar, Caligula en Heliogabalus. Zo had Caesar zijn portret op munten laten afbeelden, een revolutionaire daad. Dit en ander koninklijk gedrag kostte hem de kop. Maar nadat zulke geldstukken hun intrede hadden gedaan, was een precedent geschapen. Na Caesars dood werd het muntportret de standaard voor Romeinse heersers. Standbeelden van levende heersers waren ook geen punt meer (.). Toen Caesar postuum werd vergoddelijkt, straalde dat af op zijn adoptiefzoon en opvolger Augustus. Vanwege de snel opeenvolgende machtswisselingen hadden veel keizers vanaf de tweede helft van de derde eeuw geen belang meer bij het vergoddelijken van mislukte voorgangers. (.) Met de bekering van Constantijn ontstond een probleem. Het volk verwachtte nog steeds dat goede keizers na hun overlijden in goden transformeerden, maar heidense vergoddelijking was voor deze eerste christelijke keizer geen optie. Een oplossing werd gevonden in heiligverklaring.' (ELIAS VAN DER PLICHT in Trouw 14.01.2023).…

Nijmegen : Uitgeverij Vantilt, c2015. Paperback. 191,[15] pp. Illustraties. 22 cm. Dutch text. - Onder het bewind van keizer Hadrianus (117-138) was het Romeinse Rijk een echt wereldrijk. Hadrianus bleef niet in het centrum ervan, in Rome, maar trok van Brittannië en Spanje tot Egypte en Klein-Azië. Overal in die globaliserende wereld drukte hij nadrukkelijk zijn stempel op de antieke cultuur. Als bouwheer, jurist, bestuurder, legerleider, kunstliefhebber en intellectueel liet hij ook figuurlijk geen terrein onbetreden. In dit boek kijken verschillende auteurs naar de fascinerende figuur van Hadrianus en via hem naar de Romeinse wereld. Welke rol speelde deze keizer in de grote historische ontwikkelingen? En welke erfenis heeft hij nagelaten? Condition : very good copy. ISBN 9789460042324. Keywords : CLASSICAL ANTIQUITY, *2006-100 roman law. …
