Description

This scholarly work by Daniel Washburn provides a comprehensive reconstruction and interpretation of banishment practices during the final unified era of the Roman Empire, spanning 284-476 CE. The study examines exile as both a formal penalty and a powerful symbolic instrument, exploring how banishment functioned within the complex power structures of late antiquity. Washburn argues that banishment served multiple purposes: it punished those who committed missteps or incurred disfavour, whilst simultaneously marking individuals as afflicted or failed members of society. Like other punishments of the period, banishment articulated and reinforced the fundamental power asymmetry between the punisher and the punished. The work uniquely explores how the physical removal of the banished body itself became a narrative tool, communicating hierarchies and authority through the act of exile itself. The study also examines banishment as a form of negotiation between different parties within the empire, revealing complex social and political dynamics at work.

Key Features

Covers the period 284-476 CE, examining banishment practices during Rome's final unified imperial era and the transition to fragmentation.

Analyses banishment as both a formal legal penalty and a symbolic marker of affliction or failure within Roman society and governance structures.

Explores how the physical displacement of banished individuals communicated and reinforced power asymmetries between authority and the punished.

Part of the Routledge Studies in Ancient History series, offering peer-reviewed scholarly research on late Roman institutional practices and social dynamics.

Investigates banishment as a negotiation process between multiple parties, revealing complex political relationships within the declining Roman Empire.
