Book Description
Pueblo siempre uno y m�ltiple, como su estructura geogr�fica, y cuya particular organizaci�n hace sobremanera complicada su historia y no parecida a la de otra naci�n alguna-LAFUENTE.THE natural divisions of the Iberian Peninsula are more marked than in almost any country of Europe, and their effect was to encourage local differences, to hamper efforts towards national unity, and to render the coast districts a ready prey to foreign invaders. The Pyrenees, besides isolating Spain from the rest of the continent, continue far to the west under other names, leaving a strip of coast on the north watered by several short rivers. This is a rainy district with rich pastures, backed by mountain slopes which supply much timber, and being difficult of access is well suited to be the last refuge of national independence.

Book Description
This groundbreaking history of Spain in late antiquity sheds new light on the fall of the western Roman empire and the emergence of medieval Europe. Historian Michael Kulikowski draws on the most recent archeological and literary evidence in this fresh an enlightening account of the Iberian Peninsula from A.D. 300 to 600. In so doing, he provides a definitive narrative that integrates late antique Spain into the broader history of the Roman empire. Kulikowski begins with a concise introduction to the early history of Roman Spain, and then turns to the Diocletianic reforms of 293 and their long-term implications for Roman administration and the political ambitions of post-Roman contenders. He goes on to examine the settlement of barbarian peoples in Spain, the end of Roman rule, and the imposition of Gothic power in the fifth and sixth centuries. In parallel to this narrative account, Kulikowski offers a wide-ranging thematic history, focusing on political power, Christianity, and urbanism. Kulikowski’s portrait of late Roman Spain offers some surprising conclusions, finding that the physical and social world of the Roman city continued well into the sixth century despite the decline of Roman power.
