Topic: Paulus Catena


  
  Paulus Catena - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Paulus was the name of an imperial notary, or senior civil servant, whose cruelty was infamous throughout the Roman and medieval world.
Paulus' methods were so extreme and the injustices he committed so great however that eventually the vicarius of Britain, Flavius Martinus, although a loyal supporter of Constantine, felt obliged to end them.
Paulus' ruthless destruction of so much of the Romano-British ruling class may be one of the reasons for the eventual breakdown of Roman rule in the province over the succeeding decades.

When Paulus was a boy, his father's mind became deranged, he constantly saw his deceased wife and other ministering angels, and he perceived miracles everywhere.
L Bauer, Heyne (died 1812), and Creuzer denied the authenticity of the greater portion of the Pentateuch and compared it to the mythology of the Greeks and Romans.
In this he is quite as unsuccessful as Paulus, who saw in them only the counterpart of the distorted imaginings of his unfortunate father.

At that point, Maj. Clark A. Paulus, 35, an active-duty Marine from Pennsylvania who had been assigned to run the prison a week earlier, ordered that Hatab be removed from the pen and stripped of his soiled clothing.
Paulus, who apparently believed that Hatab was simply being recalcitrant, told Hernandez to "drag him by the neck," Gallo wrote.
Paulus' refusal to take Hatab's medical condition seriously is the basis for charges of dereliction of duty, cruelty and maltreatment, and assault.

Rome was dyed, deformed, and filled with blood, and death, and funerals; and as many as were hated, or disliked, or worth destroying upon any account, were sure to have been Conspirators, and to be doomed to the pains annexed to Conspiracy.
Paulus was authorized to hear and determine discretionally, and proceeded to his charge, breathing nothing but rage, and bloody zeal.
Universal accusation and calumny being thus licensed and encouraged, numbers of all degrees were dragged from far and near, as it were, out of the several quarters of the world, to this barbarous Tribunal, and exposed to the mercy of a butcher, who only pursued blood and prey.

 HISTORY OF BRITAIN, 407-597, by Fabio P. Barbieri
At any rate, the closer we look at events, the stronger is the impression that they reflect a widespread British dissatisfaction, both Roman and Highland, with Roman government, closely connected with Magnentius’ revolt and Catena’s repression, and worsened by years of neglect.
It may be that the defeat of local lad Magnentius and the ferocity of Paulus Catena had sapped the loyalty of troops that, being certainly local (scouts and intelligence troops must necessarily be familiar with terrain and people) must have had close connections with local lords and functionaries.
It is therefore possible that the Gildasian legend of the usurpation of Magnus Maximus and the two Roman expeditions that followed may have something to do with memories of the usurpation of Magnentius, which seems to have been popular in Britannia, and the expeditions of Theodosius and Stilicho.

Many of the current leaders’ fathers had probably collaborated in fomenting what the texts call the "Barbarian Conspiracy", in 367AD — traditionally viewed as yet another mark of Britain’s weakness, but now being revised into what may actually have been another concerted attempt to shed the Imperial yoke.
