Of all aspects of Roman culture, the gladiatorial contests for which the Romans built their amphitheatres are at once the most fascinating and the most difficult for us to come to terms with. They have been seen variously as sacrifices to the gods or, at funerals, to the souls of the deceased; as a mechanism for introducing young Romans to the horrors of fighting; and as a direct substitute for warfare after the imposition of peace. In this original and authoritative study, Thomas Wiedemann argues that gladiators were part of the mythical struggle of order and civilisation against the forces of nature, barbarism and law breaking, representing the possibility of a return to new life from the point of death; that Christian Romans rejected gladiatorial games not on humanitarian grounds, but because they were a rival representation of a possible resurrection.; 198 pages.

Of All Aspects Of Roman Culture, The Gladiatorial Contests For Which The Romans Built Their Amphitheatres Are At Once The Most Fascinating And The Most Difficult For Us To Come To Terms With. Since Antiquity, A Number Of Theories Have Been Put Forward To Explain Their Importance. They Have Been Seen As Sacrifices To The Gods Or, At Funerals, To The Souls Of The Deceased As A Mechanism For Introducing And Inuring Young Romans To The Horrors Of Fighting And As A Substitute For The Warfare Which The Roman People Were No Longer Directly Involved In After The Emperors Imposed Peace In The First Two Centuries Ad. Thomas Wiedemann Considers Why These Theories Cannot By Themselves Explain The Importance Of The games , Their Association With The Emperors, And Their Decline As The Roman World Became Christian. He Begins By Examining The Role Of Public Ceremonies In The Context Of Competition Within The Roman Elite, As Public Demonstrations Both Of The Power Of The Roman Community As A Whole, And Of The virtue Of A Particular Public Figure And Ends By Examining How Emperors, Often Seeking To Identify Themselves With The Civilizing Hero Hercules, Used The Games In The Amphitheatre To Advertise The Legitimacy Of Their Government. In Between, Gladiatorial Duels Are Considered In The Context Of The Destruction Of Wild Beasts And Of Criminals In The Arena In Comparison With The Romans Natural And Human Enemies, Gladiators Symbolized The Possibility Of Reintegration Into Roman Society By Proving That They Possessed The Most Crucial Roman Virtue, Fighting Ability. Gladiators Were marginal , Ambivalent Figures, And Therefore Heavily Criticized By Many Ancient Writers. But These Objections Were Not Humanitarian In Any Modern Sense. When Christian Romans Rejected Gladiatorial Games, It Was Because They Were A Rival Representation Of The Possibility Of Resurrection Easter And Christmas Replaced Gladiators. Gladiators And Roman Identity -- The Context -- The Gladiators Background And Status -- Opposition And Abolition -- Conclusion Imperial Sovereignty And Popular Sovereignty. Thomas Wiedemann. Includes Bibliographical References (p. 187-189) And Index.
