| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The literature on insurgency has, for the most art, skipped over the ancient world or has grossly over-simplified the discussion of events. The historians contributing papers to this volume hope to fill in that gap by discussing ancient insurgencies in the context of their own cultures. By examining how insurgencies are achieved, why they succeed or fail, what kind of response they draw from the occupying power, and what they achieve, we can come to conclusions about what contributions ancient civilizations made to what we understand about the nature of insurgencies. |
