Sommario/riassunto

Der Sammelband trägt zur althistorischen Diskussion über Charakter und Form politischen Handelns in der römischen Kaiserzeit bei. Er konzentriert sich auf den Osten des Imperium Romanum während der gesamten Kaiserzeit einschließlich der Spätantike. An konkreten Beispielen gehen die einzelnen Beiträge der Frage nach, welche Handlungsspielräume die Kaiser - aber auch auch andere Instanzen wie Statthalter und Städte - hatten, und ob sich in ihrem Handeln ein politischer Gestaltungswille erkennen lässt, der über das bloße Reagieren auf die Anstöße von Untertanen und Untergebenen hinausging.

This collected volume contributes to the discussion among ancient historians of the character and form of political action in Imperial Rome. It concentrates on the East of the Imperium Romanum for the whole duration of the Imperial Era, including Late Antiquity. Using concrete examples, the individual papers explore the question of how much latitude and freedom of action was exercised by the emperors - and by other authorities, such as governors and cities - and whether their actions display a political strategy which went beyond merely reacting to impulses from their subjects and subordinates.

Sommario/riassunto

The Wild West has made legends out of many men, and some of them, like Wild Bill Hickok and Jesse James, were celebrities during their lives. Indeed, the history of the West is often taught as though it was a history of larger-than-life figures like Annie Oakley, Calamity Jane, Billy the Kid, Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and several other men and women, some good, some bad, and many in between. Their actions have helped forge America's common heritage. While these figures are still popular today, they didn't live, fight, and die in isolation; they all had networks of friends and part-time associates, people who helped them escape from jail or capture wanted felons. Of course, these people also stood in their shadow. Western lore has given them the dismissive name of "sidekicks", but a closer look reveals that these lesser-known figures lived colorful lives of their own. This book profiles 4 of the most important but forgotten sidekicks of the West, from Sherman McMaster, who participated in Wyatt Earp's Vendetta Ride in the wake of the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral, to Doc Scurlock, who was an outlaw alongside Billy the Kid. Legends of the West: Forgotten Sidekicks of the Wild West traces the history of some of the important figures in the West and the roles they played in some of history's seminal moments.
