Athalaric (Шаблон:Lang-la; 516Шаблон:Snd2 October 534) was the king of the Ostrogoths in Italy between 526 and 534. He was a son of Eutharic and Amalasuntha, the youngest daughter of Theoderic the Great,[1] whom Athalaric succeeded as king in 526.Шаблон:Sfn
Athalaric was about ten years old, so his mother, Amalasuintha, held all the real power. This power was to make decisions about the kingdom's politics and negotiate with foreign rulers like Justinian I, at least within the 530s. [2] For example, around 533, she had Emperor Justinian protect the Gothic kingdom.[3] Amalasuintha also controlled the type of education Athalaric would undergo.
According to Procopius, the Goth aristocracy desired Athalaric to be raised in Gothic, but Amalasuintha wanted him to resemble the Roman rulers.[4] Amalasuintha adhered to Roman learning and customs that were especially objectionable to other Goths, as they saw it as cowardly and submissive.[5] Eventually, Amalasuintha was forced to accept the will of her fellow Goths by allowing Athalaric to spend time with other boys around his age. It is not clear how effective his Roman education was.[6] It is also unknown who his Gothic teacher was, but generally, the Gothic aristocracy in the palace exerted fierce pressure on the monarchy and focused on military education instead of grammar and rhetoric, which would be done in Roman education.[7]
Athalaric drank heavily and indulged in vicious excesses, which ruined his constitution.Шаблон:Sfn After a large party in 533, rumors spread that Athalaric was ill .[8] Athalaric condition would worsen, and he died later in October of 534, probably from a combination of excessive drinking and disease, probably diabetes.[9]
