Arther Ferrill : ウィキペディア英語版 | Arther Ferrill Arther Ferrill, now a professor emeritus of history at the University of Washington at Seattle,〔(Rehabilitating Livia - By focusing on the biases of ancient historians, a scholar provides an antidote to old views of Roman rulers ) By SCOTT MCLEMEE From the issue dated September 27, 2002, The Chronicle of Higher Education〕 is also a respected expert on Ancient Rome and military history. He has written four books and is a regular contributor to The Quarterly Journal of Military History () and other periodicals as an author and in review of other authors. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1964. In ''The Fall of the Roman Empire: The Military Explanation'' (1998 ISBN 0-500-27495-9), Ferrill supports the claims of Vegetius, about increased "barbarisation" and "germanisation" helping to cause the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in the fifth century AD. He asserts that allowing barbarians to settle within Rome's borders, to act as a buffer zone against other barbarians, created friction and led to a decrease in the size of the Roman Empire's Borders. He also states that the Germans were recruited in such large numbers by the Western empire that they in fact changed it from a Roman to a German culture. For example, field army units would not use their helmets, the pilum was replaced, and the standard of drill declined, leading to a lack of military skill within the Empire. Among his other works are: *"Caligula: Emperor of Rome" Thames & Hudson, 1991, ISBN 0-500-25112-6 *"The Origins of War: From the Stone Age to Alexander the Great" Thames & Hudson, 1985. Revised edition, Westview Press, 1997. ISBN 0-8133-3302-4 *“Roman Imperial Grand Strategy” University Press of America, 1991,ISBN 0-8191-8445-4 ==References==
