Signature form Professor Carl Deroux on free endpaper. Series: Oxford Historical Monographs. 'Heather puts forward a large number of new interpretations which are both original and convincing. The most important is surely his reassessment of Jordanes' 'Gothic History' in the light of recent work on orally transmitted historical traditions in various societies. This tends to show that pre-literate groups preserve stories of the past to explain the present, and the the story of the past, when it is not fixed by writing changes to adapt to changes in the present. The history of the Goths as fixed first by Cassiodorus, and largely but not entirely following him by Jordanes, combines elements derived from classical historians with an oral tradition which has become focused on the emergence of the centralized rule of the Ostrogothic kingdom of theodoric of the Amal family. This had been built up in stages since 450, but was backdated to the third or fourth centuries. (.) there is much more than could be mentioned that is both new and plausible, particularly in the reconstruction of the story of Theodoric's Goths.' (J.H.W.G.

ISBN10: 0198202342, ISBN13: 9780198202349, [publisher: Oxford University Press, Oxford] Hardcover Hardcover. This is a scholarly study of the collision of Goths and Romans in the fourth and fifth centuries. Gothic tribes played a major role in the destruction of the western half of the Roman Empire between 350 and 500, establishing successor kingdoms in southern France and Spain (the Visigoths), and in Italy (the Ostrogoths).Our historical understanding of this `Migration Period' has been based upon the Gothic historian Jordanes, whosemid-sixth-century Getica suggests that the Visigoths and Ostrogoths entered the Empire already established as coherent groups and simply conquered new territories. Using the available contemporary sources, PeterHeather is able to show that, on the contrary, the Visigoths and Ostrogoths were new and unprecedentedly large social groupings at this time, and that many Gothic societies failed even to survive the upheavals of the Migration Period. Dr Heather's scholarly study explores the development of Visigothic and Ostrogothic societies, their rise to power, and the complicated interactions with the Romans which helped bring about the fall of the Roman Empire.
