HIST 4331 - Rome in the Dark Ages

Institution:

University of Memphis

Subject:

History

Description:

This course investigates how Rome's physical plant developed in the centuries after the end of Rome's Mediterranean hegemony. It also explores the afterlife of the idea of Rome, as locus of law and justice, symbol of empire and universal rule, and focus of religious devotion. 'Rome After Empire' seeks to understand the nature of the dialectic between an increasingly desolate, then Christian topography, and the mystique that Rome had, especially far from its walls, throughout the Middle Ages.
