Tempus, 192p. Richly ills.(B&W as well as full colour photographs and line drawings). Hard bound with dust wrps. Dust wrps to head spine discoloured. Initials stamp, date and personal library mark on free endpaper. 'Though the work is directed towards exploring Roman Britain's decline and collapse, F. sets his study within a much wider narrative. The first three chapters, for instance, deal with topics such as the conquest and the imposition of Roman rule, the limits of possible Roman expansion in the island, and the underlying military base of Britain's economy. In this F. sets out well that underlying feature of the whole Roman empire which is ll too often passed over: it was essentially a parasitic entity, the long-term existence of which was only possible through its constant predatory expansion into new areas. Once this was brought to a halt by encountering either totally uneconomic areas or resistance it could not break, it was forced to begin feeding off itself, creating internal tensions which severely compromised its ability to resist those external pressures that arose. From this F. turns to the increasing crises of the third century, the military recovery under Diocletian and his successors, the decline of urban life and of the economic base of Britain under the increasing demands of central expenditure, and finally the collapse itself, which is where F.'s overall approach come into its own. What we get there is not a picture of gradual decay, but rather the rapid and fundamental desintegration of a veneer that had been Roman civilisation. (.) The work has undoubted merits; it brings together the historical and the archaeological evidence in a way that is fresh and exciting. It strips away some of the mythology of Roman civilisation, presenting a view of the empire and its organisation that is credible, if unsympathetic, and it offers a view of Roman Britain's end that is certainly thought-provoking.' (STANLEY IRELAND in The Classical Review (New Series), 2002, pp.189-190). N° de réf. du vendeur 50362

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Fine. 1st Edition. First edition, first impression. SIGNED BY THE AUTHOR, WITHOUT DEDICATION, IN BLACK INK, ON TITLE PAGE. In almost 'as new' condition, top corners very slightly bruised, not price clipped (£25.00), no other inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg++ copy, looks unread. 192pp, illustrated. Combining a fresh analysis of the archaeological evidence with the traditional historical accounts, Neil Faulkner presents a new interpretation of the decline and fall of Roman Britain. The original conquest of Britain was one of the last successes of Roman military imperialism, whereas the Romans' repeated failures on the north British frontier shows the limits of this system. A new order became established in Britain, a centralised, military bureaucratic state, governed by a class of super rich landlords and apparatchiks, who siphoned wealth out of the provinces to defend the frontier. As a result the towns declined and the countryside was depressed. This process of decline led to the great military crisis of the fourth century. The Roman imperial army, bled white by defeats on continental battlefields, withdrew its troops from Britain to defend the imperial heartlands, and the Romano British elite succumbed to a combination of warlord power, barbarian attack and popular revolt. The study concludes by discussing the legacy of Romans and the significance of the so called 'Dark Ages'. Scarce signed. Signed by Author(s). N° de réf. du vendeur 005895
