The Roman Imperial Court in the Principate and Late Antiquity

Beschreibung

This book examines the Roman imperial court as a social and political institution in both the Principate and Late Antiquity. By analysing these two periods, which are usually treated separately in studies of the Roman court, it examines continuities, changes, and connections in the six hundred years between the reigns of Augustus and Justinian.
