The Age of Justinian: The Circumstances of Imperial Power Hardcover - 1996 - 1st Edition
by J. a. Evans
From the publisher
From the rear cover
The Age of Justinian (527-565) marks the transition between Late Antiquity, when the norms of the classical world still survived, and the Byzantine period, which featured a Christian state that left little or no space for outsiders. While Justinian considered himself the restorer of the Roman Empire, his contemporaries saw him as an innovator who consciously willed change. J.A.S. Evans examines not only the history of this great emperor, but also the environment in which he lived. The Age of Justinian looks at the social structure of the empire, and the neighbours that surrounded it. It also chronicles the theological issues, which split the empire and left even deeper divisions after Justinian's death, in spite of his best efforts to settle them. At the end, Justinian found himself facing forces which were too strong even for a man with his determination. But, for all that, we are left with a sense of admiration for the great emperor and his wife, Theodora. Their aims were high and they presided over a period of brilliance. They belonged to a unique moment of history, and in the problems they encountered and the forces they faced, we can dimly recognize some that are with us to the present day.

Description:
Routledge, London / New York, 1996. 1st ed. XIII,345p. Original black silver titled cloth with dust wrps. 'E.'s work will prove to be a most useful introduction for students of the eastern Roman Empire in the sixth century. It gathers together much recent research on the period and concentrates more on 'the age of Justinian', as the title indicates, than on the emperor himself - a breadth of focus which is to be welcomed. (...) E.'s work will provide a helpful supplement to Jpnes' 'Later Roman empire' for the sixth century in the east; the well-researched and up-to date bibliography is particularly to be commended.'(GEOFFREY GREATREX in The Classical Review (New Series), 1998, pp.404-05). From the library of Prof. Carl Deroux.
