ELENA ISAYEV: MIGRATION, MOBILITY AND PLACE IN ANCIENT ITALY
IN HER NEW BOOK, ELENA ISAYEV SEEKS TO DEMONSTRATE THAT HUMAN MOBILITY
WAS A MAJOR FACTOR IN THE ANCIENT WORLD AND
ITALY IN PARTICULAR, GOING SIGNIFICANTLY BEYOND WHAT IS SUGGESTED EVEN
BY ATTENTION-GRABBING FIGURES FOR COLONISATION
AND STATE-SPONSORED ACTIVITIES . TAKING HER CUE FROM SCHOLARSHIP IN
CONTEMPORARY HUMAN GEOGRAPHY, ISAYEV SPECIFICALLY
CHALLENGES TRADITIONAL APPROACHES BY CLASSICISTS AND ANCIENT HISTORIANS,
WHICH HAVE NOT ONLY ASSIGNED PRIVILEGE TO SUCH
STATE-SPONSORED MOVEMENTS BUT ALSO FOLLOWED THE ASSUMPTION THAT ANCIENT
POLITICAL AUTHORITIES ACTIVELY TRIED TO
PREVENT THE MOVEMENT OF PEOPLE. IN THIS RESPECT, ISAYEV EXPLICITLY DRAWS
ON RECENT DEBATES ARISING FROM THE GLOBAL
WAVES OF MIGRATION OF THE PRESENT DECADE WHICH OCCASIONALLY GIVES HER
ARGUMENT AN EMOTIONAL, AT TIMES POLEMICAL
EDGE, WHICH IS NOTICEABLE ESPECIALLY IN HER INTRODUCTORY CHAPTER (3-17).
THE CHRONOLOGICAL RANGE OF ISAYEV S BOOK IS
AMBITIOUS, RANGING FROM THE IRON AGE TO THE EARLY EMPIRE, AND ALTHOUGH
HER PRINCIPAL FOCUS IS ON ITALY, SHE FREQUENTLY
OFFERS ADDITIONAL PERSPECTIVES ON OTHER PARTS OF THE MEDITERRANEAN,
NOTABLY THE GREEK EAST.
CHAPTER 2 (8-17) ESTABLISHES THE HEURISTIC FRAMEWORK OF THE BOOK. HERE
FIND A USEFUL, UP-TO DATE ENGAGEMENT WITH
RECENT LITERATURE ON ASPECTS OF MOBILITY IN THE GRAECO-ROMAN WORLD.
SPECIFICALLY, ISAYEV ADDRESSES THE ISSUE OF ANCIENT
DEMOGRAPHY AND ITS LIMITATIONS FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF THE AVAILABLE
STATISTICAL DATA OR, RATHER, ITS ABSENCE. IN
ADDITION, ISAYEV ARGUES, SCHOLARS HAVE EXCESSIVELY LIMITED THEMSELVES TO
THOSE LITERARY INSTANCES THAT EXPLICITLY DEAL
WITH MIGRATION. HERE, THE AUTHOR IDENTIFIES A BI-POLARITY OF APPROACH
THAT GOES BACK TO ANCIENT TRADITIONS. AT ONE END
OF THE SPECTRUM, THERE IS AN OVEREMPHASIS ON OFFICIALLY SANCTIONED
MIGRATION, ESPECIALLY IN THE FORM OF COLONISATION
WHICH ISAYEV DEFINES WIDELY - TOO WIDELY IN MY VIEW - AS RANGING FROM
THE FORMAL FOUNDATION OF NEW CITIES TO RATHER
MORE OBSCURE INSTITUTIONS LIKE THE CIVITAS SINE SUFFRAGIO. AT THE
OPPOSITE END, BOTH ANCIENT SOURCES AND MODERN
SCHOLARSHIP IDENTIFY AND FREQUENTLY CONDEMN SUPPOSEDLY DEVIANT FORMS OF
MIGRATION, SUCH AS THE INFLUX OF RURAL
MIGRANTS INTO THE MID-REPUBLICAN CITY OF ROME, OR THE MOVEMENT OF
OSCAN-SPEAKING POPULATIONS FROM THE APENNINES
INTO THE TYRRHENIAN PLAIN. ISAYEV GOES TO GREAT LENGTHS TO DEMONSTRATE
THAT THIS DICHOTOMY IS ARTIFICIAL: FIRST, OTHER
FORMS OF MIGRATION DID EXIST BETWEEN THE TWO EXTREMES. SECOND,
RESISTANCE TO MIGRATION USUALLY SPRANG FROM A DESIRE
TO MAKE PEOPLE REMAIN IN THEIR ORIGINAL PLACES OF RESIDENCE, AS OPPOSED
TO PREVENTING THEM FROM COMING IN. THIS IS
ISAYEV S CONVINCING READING OF THE EPISODIC EXPULSIONS OF FOREIGNERS
FROM ROME THAT OCCURRED DURING THE SECOND CENTURY
BC, WERE USUALLY PROMPTED BY COMPLAINTS FROM THE MIGRANTS COMMUNITIES
OF ORIGIN. THIRD, THE AUTHOR ARGUES THAT
THERE WAS OFTEN LITTLE DAYLIGHT BETWEEN STATE-SPONSORED AND UNOFFICIAL
FORMS OF MOVEMENT OR, RATHER THAT THE
BOUNDARIES BETWEEN THE TWO WERE BLURRED. TO ILLUSTRATE THESE POINTS,
ISAYEY CONCLUDES THE FIRST PART OF HER BOOK WITH
A CASE STUDY OF THE R
*
MAIOI AND ITALI
*
TAI OF THE SECOND AND FIRST CENTURIES BC. SHE DISCUSSES THEM AS A RATHER
FUZZY
CATEGORY OF ITALIAN RESIDENTS OF THE EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN, WHO HAD
MOVED - AND WERE MOVING AROUND - THIS PART OF THE
WORLD FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS, AND BOTH IN CONNECTION WITH AND IN
DEFIANCE OF THE WILL OF THE IMPERIAL REPUBLIC.
THE THREE THEMATIC CHAPTERS OF PART II (69-187) IN TURN DEAL WITH WHAT
ISAYEV IDENTIFIES AS KEY MOBILITY-RELATED
PHENOMENA OF ITALY BETWEEN CA. 800 AND 250 BC. IN THE FIRST OF THESE
(CHAPTER 3), THE AUTHOR IS CONCERNED WITH
ANCIENT EXPERIENCES OF CONNECTIVITY, AND WITH THE RESULTANT IMPACT WHICH
THESE HAD ON COMMUNAL IDEAS OF ORIGIN AND
BELONGING. THIS PART OF THE BOOK IS HEAVILY INFLUENCED BY THE CONCEPTUAL
FRAMEWORK ESTABLISHED BY HORDEN AND PURCELL
IN THE CORRUPTING SEA, TO THE POINT THAT THIS AND THE FOLLOWING TWO
CHAPTERS AT TIME COME ACROSS AS LOOSE IN THEIR
APPROACH TO CHRONOLOGICAL STRUCTURE AND GEOGRAPHICAL FOCUS. ISAYEV TAKES
HER READERS ON A TOUR DE FORCE OF CASE
STUDIES THAT RANGE FROM THE STORY OF THE CORINTHIAN DEMARATUS (98-107)
TO THE CELTIC POPULATIONS OF NORTH ITALY (119-
126) AND THE (NON-) COLONISATION OF PITHECUSSAE IN THE EIGHTH CENTURY BC
(125-138). IF THERE IS A CHRONOLOGICAL HORIZON,
IT IS THE EMERGENCE OF ROME AS THE UNDISPUTED HEGEMON OF ITALY, WHICH
MANIFESTS ITSELF, ACCORDING TO ISAYEV, IN THE
FIRST CLEAR-CUT EXAMPLES OF COLONISATION IN THE PENINSULA, AND THUS IN A
TRANSFORMATION OF EARLIER TYPES OF MOBILITY
THROUGH THE USE OF POWER (178-184).
RATHER THAN REDUCING THE HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF MOBILITY, ISAYEV
ARGUES, THE ARRIVAL OF ROME ON THE SCENE TOOK IT TO
NEW DIMENSIONS. AS THE FIRST ITALIAN POLITY TO MANIPULATE THE MOVEMENT
OF PEOPLE AS A MAJOR WAY OF IMPOSING HER
POWER, ROME DIRECTLY AND INDIRECTLY IMBUED IDEAS OF ORIGIN, BELONGING
AND PLACE WITH UNPRECEDENTED MEANING IN THE
MINDS AND EXPERIENCES OF HER GROWING NUMBER OF SUBJECTS. FOR THE SECOND
CENTURY BC, ISAYEV SEEKS TO DEMONSTRATE THE
RISE OF THIS NEW MOBILITY BY DETAILED CASE STUDIES OF PLAUTUS COMEDIES
AND THOSE SECTIONS IN POLYBIUS HISTORY THAT ARE
CONCERNED WITH THE MOVEMENT OF PEOPLE (PART III, 191-307). THROUGH HER
ANALYSIS OF SOME OF PLAUTUS PLAYS (191-228),
ISAYEV SEEKS TO TRACE A MEASURABLY INCREASED AWARENESS OF MIGRATION AND
DIFFERENCES IN GEOGRAPHICAL ORIGIN AMONG THE
POET S URBAN ROMAN AUDIENCE. HERE, SHE HEAVILY SUBSCRIBES TO THE VIEW
THAT PLAUTUS ADAPTED HIS GREEK MODELS
CONSIDERABLY, IN ORDER TO SUIT THE EXPERIENCES OF HIS OWN PUBLIC. THIS
IS BY NO MEANS UNCONTROVERSIAL. [1
] SIMILARLY, HER
TWO CHAPTERS ON POLYBIUS AND HIS TAKES ON MOBILITY (229-266, 267-367)
GIVE THE GREEK WRITER THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT
IN RESPECT BOTH OF HIS KNOWLEDGE OF ITALY AND OF HIS INTENTIONS IN
WRITING ABOUT THE PENINSULA. PERHAPS AN EXPLICIT
DISCUSSION OF POLYBIUS APPARENT DISINTEREST IN ROMAN COLONISATION OR,
FOR THAT MATTER, IN THE AFFAIRS OF OTHER ITALIAN
COMMUNITIES MIGHT HAVE BEEN HELPFUL. AS IN THE CASE OF HER PLAUTINE
CHAPTER, BY DECIDING NOT TO ENGAGE IN MORE DETAIL
WITH POSSIBLE ALTERNATIVES TO HER VIEW OF THE (CON) TEXTS, ISAYEV RUNS
THE RISK THAT SOME OF HER READERS MIGHT DISMISS
HER ARGUMENTS IN THEIR ENTIRETY.
IN PART IV (309-425) ISAYEV TURNS TO THE SOCIAL WAR AND ITS AFTERMATH
(CHAPTER 9, 311-359), BEFORE DEDICATING HER FINAL
CHAPTER TO LITERARY AND MATERIAL REPRESENTATIONS OF ROME AS A PLACE
DURING THE LATE REPUBLIC AND EARLY EMPIRE
(CHAPTERS 10-11, 360-394, 395-418). HER ARGUMENT IN THIS PART OF THE
BOOK CAN BE OUTLINED AS FOLLOWS. THE SOCIAL WAR
WAS ESSENTIALLY A CONFLICT OVER THE CULTURAL DEFINITION OF PLACE IN
ITALY, WITH CORFINIUM AND ROME REPRESENTING
DIAMETRICALLY OPPOSED CONCEPTS OF SPATIALITY. WHILE THE ROMAN ELITE
INCREASINGLY PLACED ROME AT THE CENTRE OF ITALY
AND THE EMPIRE (ISAYEV S ABSOLUTE CONCEPT OF PLACE), THE INSURGENTS
SPATIAL IDENTITY WAS MUCH MORE RELATIONAL AND
THUS LESS ASSOCIATED WITH A SPECIFIC LOCATION. ALTHOUGH THE ITALIANS
CAPITAL HAPPENED TO BE AT CORFINIUM, IT MIGHT AS
WELL HAVE BEEN IN ANOTHER LOCATION, WHICH IS IN THE AUTHOR S VIEW SHOWN
BY THE FACT THAT IT DID EVENTUALLY MOVE, TO
BOVIANUM AT FIRST, FOLLOWED BY AESERNIA. AS A RESULT OF ROME S
HARD-FOUGHT VICTORY, THE ABSOLUTE CONCEPT OF PLACE
CARRIED THE DAY: AS A RESULT, ITALIAN INDIVIDUALS AND COMMUNITIES
INCREASINGLY DEFINED THEIR OWN IDENTITIES IN RELATION TO
ROME IN THE FIRST PLACE. THIS PROCESS CULMINATED DURING THE REIGN OF
AUGUSTUS WHEN ROME AS A PLACE, AS WELL AS PLACES
WITHIN ROME BECAME INDELIBLY ASSOCIATED WITH WHAT IT MEANT TO
SELF-IDENTIFY, FIRSTLY, AS ROMAN AND, SECONDLY, AS
ITALIAN. IN THIS LIGHT, ISAYEV INTERPRETS LIVY S SPEECH OF CAMILLUS
(5.50-55) AGAINST THE PROPOSED MOVE TO THE SITE OF VEII
ACROSS THE TIBER, AS THE FIRST AND MOST EMPHATIC LITERARY MANIFESTATION
OF ROME AS AN ABSOLUTE PLACE OF REFERENCE -
AND MADE BY AN AUTHOR WHOSE HOME REGION OF CISALPINE GAUL HAD ONLY
RECENTLY BEEN INCLUDED IN TERRA ITALIA (CHAPTER
10, 360-394). AT THE LEVEL OF MATERIAL AND VISUAL MANIFESTATIONS OF THIS
LOCATIONAL CONCEPT, ISAYEV S FINAL CHAPTER
FOCUSES ON THE EMERGENCE OF MAPPED SPACE - PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY -
AND, IN PARTICULAR, ON PLACES IN THE CITY THAT
HELPED (ELITE) INDIVIDUALS MAP OUT THEIR IDENTITY IN RELATION TO ROME
(CHAPTER 11, 395-418). THUS, BELONGING TO THE
ROMAN PATRIA INCREASINGLY BECAME A PROCESS OF SPATIAL ASSOCIATION WITH
PLACES IN ROME. WHILE OTHER PLACES IN ITALY AND
THE EMPIRE - TYPICALLY AN ELITE INDIVIDUAL S TOWN OF ORIGIN - CLEARLY
MATTERED, AS SEEN IN CICERO S CASE, WHERE THEY WERE
AND WHAT THEY LOOKED LIKE WAS OF LITTLE CONSEQUENCE TO A PERSON S
IDENTITY AS A ROMAN.
THIS IS AN IMPORTANT BOOK WHICH DOVETAILS NICELY WITH OTHER RECENT
PUBLICATIONS THAT HAVE BEGUN TO REVISE TRADITIONAL
VIEWS OF HOW ANCIENT ROMANS VIEWED SPACE IN ITALY AND THEIR CITY. [2
] MORE SO THAN OTHER SCHOLAR PERHAPS, ISAYEV HAS
MADE AN EFFORT NOT EXCLUSIVELY TO FOCUS ON THE PERCEPTIONS OF THE ELITE
- AS IN HER SECTIONS ON LANDSCAPES AND PLAUTUS -
ALTHOUGH THE NATURE OF THE EVIDENCE NATURALLY MEANS THAT SOCIALLY
ELEVATED POINTS-OF-VIEW DOMINATE HER STUDY TOO.
MIGRATION, MOBILITY AND PLACE IS NOT ALWAYS AN EASY BOOK TO READ. IT IS
HEAVY WITH JARGON BORROWED FROM THE SOCIAL
SCIENCES, THE RELEVANCE OF WHICH TO THE ANCIENT WORLD IS NOT IMMEDIATELY
CLEAR IN ALL INSTANCES. PROBLEMATIC, TOO, IS
THE FACT THAT ISAYEV S HISTORICAL ARGUMENT OCCASIONALLY DROPS BACK
BEHIND HER OWN VIEWS ON MIGRATION AS A
CONTEMPORARY PHENOMENON. THIS MIGHT PUT OFF SOME READERS AND IS
FURTHERMORE NOT NECESSARILY CONDUCIVE TO THE
WORK S SHELF-LIFE.
I MOST ENJOYED READING THE SECTIONS ON THE ITALIAN TRADERS OVERSEAS, ON
DEMARATUS, AND ON MAPS. THE SAME APPLIES TO
THE INNOVATIVE CHAPTER ON PLAUTUS, WITH THE RESERVATIONS I RAISED ABOVE.
I LEAST LIKED CHAPTERS 4 AND 5. THE DISCUSSION
OF THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL EVIDENCE - ON WHICH ISAYEV HEAVILY DEPENDS HERE -
IS SUPERFICIAL AND, AT TIMES, SWEEPING. I AM
ALSO NOT CONVINCED BY ISAYEV S WAY OF CONTRASTING BETWEEN CORFINIUM AND
ROME, WHICH MAY BE ATTRIBUTED TO THE FACT
THAT, OUTSIDE THE CHAPTERS ON PLAUTUS AND POLYBIUS, ISAYEV SAYS TOO
LITTLE ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN ROME AND
ITALY DURING THE SECOND CENTURY. ON THE ONE HAND, THE INSURGENTS
BACKGROUNDS AND INTENTIONS VARIED TOO MUCH FOR
THERE TO HAVE BEEN THE ITALIAN CONCEPT OF PLACE. ON THE OTHER, ONE
PRINCIPAL CAUSE OF THE SOCIAL WAR WAS THAT SOME OF
ROME S ALLIES WERE INCREASINGLY VIEWING THEMSELVES AS HER RIVALS WITHIN
THE SAME GAME, A PHENOMENON THAT PETER
BRUNT (JRS 55, 90-109) MEMORABLY DESCRIBED THROUGH THE METAPHOR OF THE
ANTI-POPE. IN ADDITION, THE REASON WHY
CORFINIUM WAS ABANDONED IN THE FIRST INSTANCE STEMMED FROM THE FACT THAT
THEIR ORIGINAL CAPITAL HAD FALLEN TO THE
ENEMY, IN THE SAME WAY THAT ONE COULD HARDLY ARGUE THAT THE NAZI
GOVERNMENT S MOVE FROM BERLIN TO FLENSBURG IN
APRIL/MAY 1945 WAS IN ANY WAY PREDICATED BY A PECULIAR GERMAN CONCEPT OF
PLACE. FINALLY, THE GREEK FONTS ARE ALL OVER
THE PLACE, THOUGH THE BLAME FOR THIS IS SQUARELY TO BE LAID AT THE
PUBLISHER S DOOR STEP.
BUT THESE ARE RELATIVELY MINOR POINTS. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO
ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED IN THE SOCIAL AND
CULTURAL HISTORY OF ITALY. IT IS A WORK THAT IS BEST READ IN SECTIONS,
AS A COLLECTION OF THEMATICALLY COHERENT YET SELF-
CONTAINED ESSAYS. THE ILLUSTRATIONS COMPLEMENT ISAYEV S ARGUMENT VERY
WELL, AND IT IS USEFUL TO HAVE THEM IN BOTH
BLACK-AND-WHITE AND COLOUR. IN SHORT, THIS IS BOUND TO BE AN INFLUENTIAL
BOOK AND A MUST-BUY FOR EVERY RESEARCH LIBRARY.
NOTES
:
[1] ISAYEV DEPENDS ON FEENEY S RECENT MODEL OF THE PROGRAMMATIC CREATION
OF LATIN LITERATURE FROM ITS GREEK
PREDECESSOR (DENIS FEENEY: BEYOND GREEK. THE BEGINNINGS OF LATIN
LITERATURE, CAMBRIDGE 2016), AND ONLY
INSUFFICIENTLY ENGAGES WITH RICHLIN S INFLUENTIAL WORK, THE UNDERLYING
HYPOTHESIS OF WHICH HAS THE POTENTIAL TO
UNDERMINE MUCH OF WHAT SHE ARGUES IN THIS CHAPTER (AMY RICHLIN: ROME AND
THE MYSTERIOUS ORIENT. THREE PLAYS BY
PLAUTUS. TRANSLATED WITH INTRODUCTION AND NOTES, BERKELEY 2005).
