state administrative offi ces in dioceses and prefectures stabilised previous regional trends in the
exchange system of the Mediterranean area. It is hypothesised here that the grain assignment from
Egypt to cover the needs of Constantinople, already decided in 324, lay behind a series of administrative
decisions in Africa and south-central Italy, in order to obtain from both areas the revenue
necessary for the public annona of Rome. Related to this policy seem to be the creation in Africa,
during the last years of Constantine’s reign, of a praetorian prefecture which had neither precedents
nor administrative consequences, the worsening of the annonarian taxes and connected liturgies,
and the removal of Tripolitania from the provincial list of olive oil suppliers.
Books by domenico vera
During a career that led him from Paris X to the EHESS, Jean-Michel Carrié profoundly enriched our knowledge of Late Antiquity, to which he dedicated the largest part of his works. In his detailed articles as in his syntheses, he gave a documented and balanced appreciation of the Late Roman Empire, through a combined examination of various sources, particularly papyrus and imperial constitutions. His work shed new and fertile light on large parts of the structures of the Late Roman State: the administration and its tax system, with their impact on the Roman society, or the defence of the Empire, its methods and means, to mention only the main domains which he illustrated. With this volume, the editors wished to pay a due tribute to Jean-Michel Carrié's scientific and human libera curiositas: a " free curiosity " variously experienced by the forty contributors of these Mélanges, as colleagues, friends, readers or students. The studies collected in the volume cover the main fields explored by Jean-Michel Carrié, first of all the tax system and the Late Roman army, its foreign auxiliaries as its Egyptian garrisons. Secondly, the Roman frontier policy is studied through the questions of diplomatic exchanges, alliances and federates' recruitment. In the third part, the contributions dedicated to the regional societies and economies reflect the geographical extent of the scientific interests of Jean-Michel Carrié, from Britain to Syria, through Italy and Egypt.
