Eight programmes on the background of the Roman world
2: The Roman Army and the Frontiers of Empire by PROFESSOR ERIC BIRLEY of the University of Durham
For two hundred years the Roman Army insisted on its other ranks being unmarried, so that it was not necessary for the government to pay for wives and children. But the Army was astonishingly modern in its methods of training and administration, and in its duties along the frontiers of the Empire there are many analogies with security duties today.

Oxford Dr. Kenny talks about a book. which has now been translated into English, by the Hungarian Jesuit philosopher and theologian Ladislaus Boros. Many modern Ihinkers scorn the kind of philosophising done by Boros. Are they justified. Dr. Kenny asks, or merely frivolous and irresponsible with respect to the great issues handled by, for example, Platoand Boros?
