内容説明・目次
内容説明
The Roman Empire featured an infrastructure that allowed reliable
communication between the emperors and all parts of the Roman
administration, known as uehiculatio during the Principate and as
cursus publicus from the late third and early fourth century CE
onwards. This study aims, firstly, to explore the factors that led to the
establishment of the cursus publicus with its two sub-divisions
(cursus uelox, cursus clauulari(u)s); and, secondly, to show
through a comprehensive review of the structure, history, and development
of the cursus publicus in the fourth century that this system was
firmly integrated into the imperial administration and streamlined to such
a degree that it could be used with unprecedented effectiveness by the end
of the fourth century.
