IMITATIO SPECIEI GERMANICAE: INOCULTURAL INNOVATIONS IN THE FORM OF THE AESTII AND PRUSSIANS I–VI

View through CrossRef
В предлагаемой главе при помощи письменных и археологических источников выявлен интереснейший исторический феномен. Часть западных балтов, непосредственно граничивших с восточными германцами, с I-II в. по минимум VII в. стремилась к подражанию деталям убора и, очевидно, внешнему виду германцев, причём — западных. Это стремление было основано на высоком авторитете, который был достигнут западной частью германских племён среди остального населения Barbaricum. Сами же германцы ко времени крушения Западной Римской империи всё больше старались походить на носителей провинциально-римской традиции. Даже первое готское государство в Италии, основанное в 476 г. Одоакром, формально считалось частью Восточной Римской империи. Упомянутые имитационные тенденции в сознании германцев позднеримского времени привели к возникновению лозунга Imitatio Imperii Romanorum, актуального при формировании основ будущей Священной Римской империи германской нации. In the proposed chapter, with the help of written and archaeological sources, an interesting historical phenomenon is revealed. Part of the western Balts, directly bordering on the eastern Germans, from the 1st-2nd centuries. at least the 7th century strove to imitate the details of the dress and, obviously, the appearance of the Germans, moreover, the Western ones. This desire was based on the high prestige that was achieved by the western part of the Germanic tribes among the rest of the Barbaricum population. By the time of the collapse of the Western Roman Empire, the Germans themselves were increasingly trying to resemble the bearers of the provincial Roman tradition. Even the first Gothic state in Italy, founded in 476 by Odoacer, was formally considered part of the Eastern Roman Empire. The aforementioned imitative tendencies in the minds of the late Roman Germans led to the emergence of the slogan Imitatio Imperii Romanorum, relevant in the formation of the foundations of the future Holy Roman Empire of the German nation.
