About This Book
A chronological and thematic history of the late Roman Empire that combines concise biographies of emperors and ministers with detailed accounts of revolts, sieges, and major battles. The narrative examines theological controversies and religious legislation alongside civil and military laws, and it describes the administration of provinces and the conduct of campaigns. Drawn from contemporary authors and official codes, the text assesses rulers' character and policies while showing how legal, military, and ecclesiastical decisions affected urban life and provincial stability.
