Rome and the Barbarians by Kenneth W. Harl
Requirements: .MP3 reader, 312 MB
Overview: The history of the Romans as they advanced the frontiers of Classical civilization is often told as a story of warfare and conquest – the mighty legions encountering the “barbarians.” But this only tells one side of the story.Who were the Celts, Goths, Huns, and Persians met by the Romans as they marched north and east? What were the political, military, and social institutions that made Rome so stable, allowing its power to be wielded against these different cultures for nearly three centuries? What role did those institutions themselves play in assimilating barbarian peoples? These engaging lectures tell the story of the complex relationship between each of these native peoples and their Roman conquerors as they intermarried, exchanged ideas and mores, and, in the ensuing provincial Roman cultures, formed the basis of Western European civilization.
