Affiliate Session of the Association of Ancient Historians, The Barbarian in War and Peace
|
Call for Proposals: The Barbarian in War and Peace
AAH Affiliate Panel at the 2014 AHA meeting, Washington, D.C.
Organizer: Rachael B. Goldman
The commentary and discussion concerning the barbarian is extensive in ancient
historical record. Barbarians have been described in the Ancient Near East, Greece and
Rome and through Late Antiquity. Previously scholars have typified the barbarian in
solely negative terms, looking through the lens of the conqueror, but this panel attempts
to revisit this subject. There are instances when Barbarians are not always described as
the enemy but as impressive or attractive in appearance and attitude.
This panel seeks to address issues concerning the Barbarian in times of war and peace such as:
The appearance of the Barbarian in material culture, numismatics and inscriptions
Law and the Barbarian
Women as Barbarians
Love and relationships with Barbarians
Please send abstracts (approx. 150 words)
