HIS 304 Rome at War
This course explores the contribution of military power to Roman imperial policy. Both literary and archaeological evidence will support the analysis of typical Roman strategies, tactics, weaponry, and operations. Specific illustrative engagements in Britain, Europe, Israel, and Jordan will be examined in detail. The Roman custom of the triumph will also come under consideration. On this basis, the course will critically reflect upon the ongoing role of military action in modern and post-modern settings.
