Rome, a city and its empire in perspective :the impact of the Roman world through Fergus Millar's research = Rome, une cite imperiale en jeu : l'impact du monde romain selon Fergus...
:
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.

Gaining and losing imperial favour in late antiquity : representation and reality /
:
The collective volume Gaining and Losing Imperial Favour in Late Antiquity: Representation and Reality, edited by Kamil Cyprian Choda, Maurits Sterk de Leeuw and Fabian Schulz, offers new insights into the political culture of the Roman Empire in the 4th and 5th centuries A.D., where the emperor's favour was paramount. The articles examine how people gained, maintained, or lost imperial favour. The contributors approach this theme by studying processes of interpersonal infl uence and competition through the lens of modern sociological models. Taking into account both political reality and literary representation, this volume will have much to offer students of late-antique history and/or literature as well as those interested in the politics of pre-modern monarchical states.

Der Senat und seine Kaiser im spätantiken Rom : eine kulturhistorische Annäherung /
:
Die Untersuchung rückt den Römer Senat einer ?langen Kaiserzeit? ins Zentrum der Betrachtungen. Ausgangspunkt ist die kontinuierliche Besetzung vom 1. bis ins 6. Jh. der Curia Iulia/Diocletiana, eines Zentralortes der römischen Myth-Historie. Bildlich-archäologische, epigraphische, numismatische und literarische Befunde zeugen von den komplexen Rollenspielen und Kompetenzverschränkungen, welche das Verhältnis zwischen SPQR und Caesares Augusti Imperatores epochenübergreifend bestimmen. Situativ angepasste, aufkumulierte Vorbilder der Vergangenheit ermöglichen sowohl Wandelbarkeit wie Perpetuierung. Der Senat von Rom und die Kaiser bedingen sich gegenseitig in einer singulären, bipolaren Autoritätsstruktur, die für das römische Staatsverständnis essenziell ist.
