Five Centuries of Glory: The Rise and Fall of the Roman ArmyFive Centuries of Glory: The Rise and Fall of the Roman ArmyFive Centuries of Glory: The Rise and Fall of the Roman ArmyDescriptionThis short, online CPD course aims to chart the development of the Roman Army from the Middle Republic to the Late Empire via the specific study of six key engagements. These have been chosen to illustrate the changes in organisation, tactics, and equipment during this period, and also because they are described in detail in our extant sources and thus allow students also to look at the reporting of battle and analyse its reliability. The course is delivered completely online using the Blackboard learning environment. It is taught and assessed via the use of online lectures, discussion boards and self-marking quizzes.
