2 2015 Draft Framework Text for The Development of Rome In this unit students will learn about the ancient Romans. Students will note that Rome is located on the central west coast of the Italian peninsula. Although Rome s empire was initially on the edge of the prosperous eastern Mediterranean sphere dominated by Greeks, Egyptians, and peoples of the Levant, it eventually encompassed the entire Mediterranean basin and much of its hinterland, especially in Europe. Students may consult the Roman tradition, recorded in Vergil s Aeneid and the works of the historian Livy, that Romulus, a descendant of the Trojan Aeneas, founded the city in 753 BCE. According to these sources, Romulus killed his twin brother Remus during the founding of the city and created both the Roman legions and the senate. The Romans believed that kings first ruled the city and that a republic replaced the monarchy in 509 BCE. They idealized the virtue of public service, as depicted in the story of Cincinnatus, who according to Roman sources was living on a farm when he was chosen to serve as dictator during a hostile invasion in 458 BCE. Cincinnatus gave up his power after the defeat of the enemy, an action that inspired later leaders such as George Washington. During the Early Republic ( BCE), the Roman political community was nearly destroyed by social and political conflict between the patricians, a hereditary elite, and the plebeians, who accounted for everyone else. A more stable balance of power finally prevailed, the plebeians gaining legal protections against patrician power and access to high political offices. The Early Republic also witnessed the conquest of the Italian peninsula, whose fertile valleys and coastal plains produced bountiful harvests of wheat, wine, olive oil, and wool. Rome defeated its nearby neighbors in a series of wars and partially incorporated them into the young state, which ensured a steady supply of soldiers for the growing army. Expansion around the Mediterranean rim began in the third century BCE, when Rome defeated the maritime state of Carthage in the Punic Wars. By devastating Carthage, Rome gained thousands of square miles of wheat land in Sicily and North Africa, as well as a windfall of Spanish silver. In the decades before and after the turn of the millennium, Rome also conquered the Hellenistic kingdoms of Greece and Egypt. As a result of this expansion, which came to encompass the entire Mediterranean basin, massive wealth from trade and spoils, as well as large numbers of slaves, poured into Italy. This increased the divide between wealthy and poor and put great strain on the Roman political system. Rome s constitution distributed power between elected officials, the citizen body, and the oligarchic senate, but students will discover that in practice decision-making lay with the senate, especially with its most influential members. By the Late Republic ( BCE), political competition between senators became intense and increasingly violent. A succession of ambitious generals used the loyal armies to challenge each other and, increasingly, the authority of the entire senate, which the statesman and author Cicero symbolized. This discord culminated in the dictatorship of Julius Caesar and, under his successor Augustus (31 BCE-14 CE), in the establishment of what was in essence a monarchy and a new ruling dynasty. About the time that the Augustan regime replaced the Republic, large-scale imperial expansion came to a halt and administration of the empire became more systematic. For much of the first three centuries CE, the Roman Empire enjoyed political and territorial stability, and the provinces benefited from new roads, a standardized currency, economic growth, and peaceful conditions. 2
3 According to the New Testament, Jesus, a Jewish carpenter from the small Judean city of Nazareth, began to preach a message of peace and divine salvation through love. He taught that God loved all his creation, regardless of status or circumstance, and that humans should reflect that love in relations with one another. Jesus proclaimed one God, a feature that distinguished both Judaism and Christianity from the polytheistic religions of the Greeks and Romans. The Roman authorities in Judea executed Jesus. But under the leadership of his early followers, notably Paul, a Jewish scholar from Anatolia, Christians took advantage of Roman roads and sea lanes to travel widely, preaching to both Jews and others. Between the first and fourth centuries, Christian communities multiplied around the Mediterranean and as far east as Persia. Through selections from the New Testament Bible, students may explore the principal sources we have of the life of Jesus and the career of Paul as missionary and church organizer. The Romans granted cities in the empire a high degree of local self-government, including in religious affairs. Religious tolerance, however, did not always extend to Jews or Christians. The Roman authorities regarded Jewish rebellions against the empire as a threat to its integrity. The refusal of the Christians to participate in Roman civic rituals led to charges of disloyalty to the empire. Students learn that both groups suffered from Roman repression. Many Jews were dispersed from their homeland in Judea, obliging them to build new communities far and wide. Christians underwent a series of increasingly systematic persecutions. In the fourth century CE, however, Christianity gained acceptance under the rule of Constantine and later status as Rome s state religion. Roman culture absorbed much of the Greek and Hellenistic traditions. Students may use texts and visual sources to compare Roman contributions in art, architecture, engineering, political thought, religion, and philosophy with those of the earlier Greeks. They will discover that Rome s own innovations included advances in architectural design, technologically sophisticated road building, and a body of laws that has had immense influence on legal systems in Europe, the United States, and other parts of the world. Students may also consider ways in which modern writers, artists, and political leaders have appropriated Greek and Roman ideals, values, and cultural forms as worthy models for civil society. Since the grade six curriculum includes numerous descriptions of trade among ancient civilizations, teachers can use an exchange simulation to help students experience the gains from trade. Unit Standards History Content 6.7 Students analyze the geographic, political, economic, religious, and social structures during the development of Rome Identify the location and describe the rise of the Roman Republic, including the importance of such mythical and historical figures as Aeneas, Romulus and Remus, Cincinnatus, Julius Caesar, and Cicero Describe the government of the Roman Republic and its significance (e.g., written constitution and tripartite government, checks and balances, civic duty) Identify the location of and the political and geographic reasons for the growth of Roman territories and expansion of the 3
4 empire, including how the empire fostered economic growth through the use of currency and trade routes Discuss the influence of Julius Caesar and Augustus in Rome's transition from republic to empire Trace the migration of Jews around the Mediterranean region and the effects of their conflict with the Romans, including the Romans' restrictions on their right to live in Jerusalem Note the origins of Christianity in the Jewish Messianic prophecies, the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as described in the New Testament, and the contribution of St. Paul the Apostle to the definition and spread of Christian beliefs (e.g., belief in the Trinity, resurrection, salvation) Describe the circumstances that led to the spread of Christianity in Europe and other Roman territories Discuss the legacies of Roman art and architecture, technology and science, literature, language, and law. History Analysis Skills Chronological and Spatial Thinking: 1. Students explain how major events are related to one another in time. 2. Students construct various timelines of key events, people, and periods of the historical era they are studying. 3. Students use a variety of maps and documents to identify physical and cultural features of neighborhoods, cities, states, and countries and to explain the historical migration of people, expansion and disintegration of empires, and the growth of economic systems. Research, Evidence, and Point of View: 1. Students frame questions that can be answered by historical study and research. 2. Students distinguish fact from opinion in historical narratives and stories. 3. Students distinguish relevant from irrelevant information, essential from incidental information, and verifiable from unverifiable information in historical narratives and stories. 4. Students assess the credibility of primary and secondary sources and draw sound conclusions from them. 5. Students detect the different historical points of view on historical events and determine the context in which the historical statements were made (the questions asked, sources used, author's perspectives). Historical Interpretation: 1. Students explain the central issues and problems from the past, placing people and events in a matrix of time and place. 2. Students understand and distinguish cause, effect, sequence, and correlation in historical events, including the long-and short-term causal relations. 3. Students explain the sources of historical continuity and how the combination of ideas and events explains the emergence of new patterns. 4. Students recognize the role of chance, oversight, and error in history. 5. Students recognize that interpretations of history are subject to change as new information is uncovered. 6. Students interpret basic indicators of economic performance and conduct cost-benefit analyses of economic and political issues. 4
5 Common Core Reading for History CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RH Identify key steps in a text s description of a process related to history/social studies. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RH Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including vocabulary specific to domains related to history/social studies. CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RH Describe how a text presents information (e.g., sequentially, comparatively, causally). Common Core Writing History, Science, and Technical Subjects 6-8.WHST.2 Write informative/explanatory texts, including the narration of historical events, scientific procedures/ experiments, or technical processes. a. Introduce a topic clearly, previewing what is to follow; organize ideas, concepts, and information into broader categories as appropriate to achieving purpose; include formatting (e.g., headings), graphics (e.g., charts, tables), and multimedia when useful to aiding comprehension. b. Develop the topic with relevant, well-chosen facts, definitions, concrete details, quotations, or other information and examples. c. Use appropriate and varied transitions to create cohesion and clarify the relationships among ideas and concepts. d. Use precise language and domain-specific vocabulary to inform about or explain the topic. e. Establish and maintain a formal style and objective tone. f. Provide a concluding statement or section that follows from and supports the information or explanation presented. A note from the framework on the integration of content and skills: The framework and standards emphasize the importance of studying major historical events and periods in depth as opposed to superficial skimming of enormous amounts of material. This emphasis on depth over breadth is also a central component of the Common Core. The Historical and Social Sciences Analysis Skills require students to examine and understand the causation behind historical events and to learn to approach their studies in the same way that historians and social scientists do. The integrated and correlated approach proposed here requires time; students should not be made to feel that they are on a forced march across many centuries and continents HSS Draft Framework, Chapter 1 5
