Abstract

The pompa circensis, the procession which preceded the chariot races in the arena, was both a prominent political pageant and a hallowed religious ritual. Traversing a landscape of memory, the procession wove together spaces and institutions, monuments and performers, gods and humans into an image of the city, whose contours shifted as Rome changed. In the late Republic, the parade produced an image of Rome as the senate and the people with their gods - a deeply traditional symbol of the city which was transformed during the empire when an imperial image was built on top of the republican one. In late antiquity, the procession fashioned a multiplicity of Romes: imperial, traditional, and Christian. In this book, Jacob A. Latham explores the webs of symbolic meanings in the play between performance and itinerary, tracing the transformations of the circus procession from the late Republic to late antiquity.

Abstract

Le triomphe est la cérémonie la plus magnifique de la République romaine, le général est autorisé à entrer dans la ville et à exalter sa victoire. Au début de la période hellénistique, le rituel acquiert une forte dimension politique et permet notamment d’affirmer l’hérédité du pouvoir, c’est pourquoi la nobilitas invente de faux triomphes. Au IIIe siècle, la recherche de triomphes s’amplifie, ce qui conduit le sénat à en réglementer l’octroi. Les conflits entre l’assemblée et les généraux expliquent le développement de l’ovation et du triomphe sur le Mont albain. Les triomphateurs disposent de moyens variés pour commémorer leurs triomphes et en actualiser le souvenir, notamment à l’occasion des élections, le plus efficace est d’utiliser l’argent de leur butin pour la construction de temples. L’adoption de nouveaux cultes permet de célébrer une protection divine, mais aussi d’inscrire le triomphe dans l’espace et le temps de la cité. L’exemple des Caecilii Metelli met au jour des constructions idéologiques complexes qui préfigurent la période augustéenne.

Abstract

"Many of the wars of the late Republic were largely civil conflicts. There was, therefore, a tension between the traditional expectation that triumphs should be celebrated for victories over foreign enemies and the need of the great commanders to give full expression to their prestige and charisma, and to legitimize their power. Triumphs in the Age of Civil War rethinks the nature and the character of the phenomenon of civil war during the Late Republic. At the same time it focuses on a key feature of the Roman socio-political order, the triumph, and argues that a commander could in practice expect to triumph after a civil war victory if it could also be represented as being over a foreign enemy, even if the principal opponent was clearly Roman. Significantly, the civil aspect of the war did not have to be denied. Carsten Hjort Lange provides the first study to consider the Roman triumph during the age of civil war, and argues that the idea of civil war as 'normal' reflects the way civil war permeated the politics and society of the Late Roman Republic"--
