Book Synopsis Delphi Complete Works of Herodian (Illustrated) by : Herodian of Antioch
Download or read book Delphi Complete Works of Herodian (Illustrated) written by Herodian of Antioch and published by Delphi Classics. This book was released on 2020-03-26 with total page 1111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flourishing in the third century, Herodian of Antioch wrote a ‘Roman History’, covering the period of the Roman Empire from the death of Marcus Aurelius (AD 180) to the accession of Gordian III (238). It was a century of turbulent strife, when a succession of frontier crises and a disastrous lack of economic planning established a pattern of military coups and increasing cultural divides. Herodian’s history is one of the few texts charting this period to have survived and it is more or less complete. Principally written for the benefit of people in the Greek-speaking Roman Empire, its veracity is often distorted by rhetoric and stereotypes; however, it is an indispensable text for any student of this important period of Roman history.
