Julien : les années parisiennes

2009

This article intends to scrutinize in what ways Julian’s stay in Gaul as a Caesar were decisive in Julian’s political and military education, and whether a specific ruling style and manner may be detected in the Parisian years of Julian’s government. Relying on a critical analysis of the documentation (Julian himself, Mamertinus, Ammianus, Libanios), the author examines the military and civilian aspects of Julian’s training as an apparently inexperienced ruler but quick learner. She carries out a prosopographical study of the Caesar’s circle and the administrative staff which was then on duty, combining friendly and hostile persons. Gaul offered him a training ground and he became even the …

Career Paths in Institutional Business Elites: Finnish Family Firms from 1762–2010

2015

This article analyzes the career paths of family business executives in institutional business elites in Finland using an empirical database based on a Bourdieusian prosopographical approach. The results indicate that career paths became more complex but shortened in length toward the beginning of the twenty-first century. The early career paths of family executives changed from positions as assistants and salesmen in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries to governance, chief executive officer (CEO), and management positions in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Compared with the founder generation, next-generation family members benefited from more rapid institutional business eli…

Los canónigos de la catedral de Valencia (1375-1520). Aproximación a su prosopografía

2005

Siguiendo el modelo de algunos trabajos realizados en diócesis francesas y tomando como punto de partida una lista de canónigos del Archivo de la Catedral de Valencia desde finales del siglo XIV hasta principios del XVI, la presente investigación aporta una prosopografía de cada uno de los canónigos. El estudio introductorio analiza las características de este grupo de eclesiásticos que destaca por su formación mayoritariamente en derecho, y por su vinculación social a las oligarquías locales. Muchos de ellos, especialmente, en el pontificado de los Borja, ocuparon cargos importantes en la Curia papal.

Artesanos emprendedores en la industria textil. Del taller al mercado. El caso del pelaire contestano Bernat Martí (1469-1482)

2014

El presente trabajo analiza la función de un sector del artesanado en el desarrollo y la consolidación de las comunidades pañeras del interior valenciano durante la segunda mitad del siglo XV. Tomando como referencia las comarcas del interior-sur del País Valenciano (la Vall d’Albaida, l’Alcoià y el Comtat, con pequeñas ciudades pañeras como Ontinyent, Alcoi y, especialmente, Cocentaina, donde centraremos nuestro estudio), se analiza cómo un pequeño grupo de artesanos tendía a centralizar y gestionar la actividad textil local mediante su participación directa en el mercado de la lana, tintes y aceite, también mediante el control de las fases de acabado del paño (tundido, abatanado, tintado)…

The business elite in Finland: a prosopographical study of family firm executives 1762–2010

2015

This study presents a prosopographical analysis of the Finnish business elite. The longitudinal panel dataset includes 456 members of family firms from 1762–2010 who have received the honorary title of counsellor in Finland. Counsellor biographies have been written by an economic history association network of 130 historians. Most family firms are no longer elite after the third generation of the family business or the second counsellor generation; therefore, the same core families rarely remain part of the economic elite for more than 100 years.

Su alcuni proconsoli d’Asia all’epoca di Marco Aurelio (168-173): Kaisergeschichte e Kirchengeschichte tra fonti letterarie ed epigrafiche.

2014

A confrontation between epigraphic and literary sources is necessary to reconstruct the proconsular list of Asia for the mid reign of Marcus Aurelius (168-173 AD): in those years the province Asia was directly involved in Marcus' wars against barbarian raiders, especially the bellum Germanicum et Sarmaticum on the Danube (169-175) and the raids of Costobocs in the Balkans and Bastarnae in Anatolia (170-171). Therefore the imperial government ordered supplementary recruitments and new taxes. At the same time, the New Prophecy of Montanus, an apocalyptic Christian movement, broke out in Phrygia and Lydia (171-172) and the bishop of Laodikeia on the Lykos, Sagaris, was sentenced to death. Thes…

Efeso, Ulpiano e il Senato. La contesa per il primato nella provincia Asia nel III sec. d.C.

2019

Nell'Asia Minore romana di epoca imperiale (I–III sec. d.C.) le antiche città greche continuavano a combattere aspramente tra loro per conquistare il primato provinciale: Efeso, Pergamo, Smirne, Sardi, Cizico, Laodicea e le altre poleis erano in competizione per ottenere titoli e privilegi dagli imperatori e dal Senato di Roma, in particolare la custodia di un tempio federale del culto imperiale e il rango di metropoli. L'analisi storica di un importante dossier epigrafico e numismatico di Efeso rivela come la città fosse riuscita, tra l'epoca dei Severi e di Diocleziano (c.a. 193–293), a consolidare la sua posizione grazie all'accorta diplomazia dei notabili cittadini e infine a detenere l…

Tripolis on the Maeander in Hellenistic and Roman Age (Cent. 3rd B.C. - 3rd A.D.): Epigraphy and Prosopography

2017

This appendix is conceived to be a useful tool for the study of the history of Tripolis on the Maeander (Lydia, Anatolia). It offers a catalogue of the already published inscriptions concerning Tripolis, which come from the same city (A.1) or from anywhere else (A.2), and a prosopographical dossier of the citizens of Apollonia/Tripolis and other important persons of Hellenistic (B) and Roman age (C) up to the 3rd cent. AD, such as Roman senators (C.1), Roman magistrates and officials (C.2), Roman knights (C.3), federal magistrates of the koinon tes Asias (C.4), civic magistrates and councillors of Tripolis (C.5), “monetales” (C.6), civic priests (C.7), agonothetai and athletes (C.8), and si…
