About This Book

This multi-volume history traces the Roman Empire from a period of prosperity through progressive fragmentation and collapse, attributing decline to internal political decay, administrative strain, fiscal pressure, and military overreach. It analyzes the role of migratory and invading groups and the transformative influence of Christianity on imperial institutions and society. The work also follows the eastern imperial continuation into a medieval polity, surveys later medieval conflicts and crusading enterprises, and describes how emerging regional powers and shifting borders reshaped the territories once held by Rome.
