Ammianus Marcellinus (325 330 – after 391) was a fourth-century Roman soldier and historian. He wrote the penultimate major historical account surviving from Antiquity (the last was written by Procopius). His work chronicled in Latin the history of Rome from 96 to 378, although only the sections covering the period 353–378 are extant.〔(Encyclopædia Britannica Online – Ammianus Marcellinus )〕 ==Biography== Ammianus was born between 325 and 330 in the Greek-speaking East,〔''Illustrated Encyclopedia of the Classical World,'' Israel Shatzman, Michael Avi-Yonah, 1975 Harper and Row, p.37, ISBN 0-06-010178-4 ''East and West Through Fifteen Centuries: Being a General History from B.C. 44 to A.D. 1453,'' George Frederick Young, 1916 Longmans, Green and Co, p. 336 University of California Publications in Linguistics, University of California, Berkeley, 1943 University of California Press, p. 3 Leviathan, Thomas Hobbes, Cambridge University Press, p. lxvii.〕〔 possibly at Antioch on the Orontes.〔The possibility hinges on whether he was the recipient of a surviving letter to a Marcellinus from a contemporary, Libanius – Matthews 1989: 8.〕 The surviving books of his history, the ''Res Gestae'', cover the years 353 to 378.〔The Eye of Command, Kimberly Kagan, p. 23.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ammianus Marcellinus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
