First line
The embassy which came to the Sacred Court of Valens Augustus, emperor of the East, at Antioch in Syria in the spring of 376 was certainly important, but on the surface at least its substance was not unusual.

Description:
Routledge, London, 1994. 238,6p. ills.(B&W photographs, 4 maps). Paperback. Nice copy. 'The Theodosius of this brisk survey is a clear-sighted, capable, but emotionally somewhat unstable ruler, who was ultimately unfortunate in his manful struggle against heavy odds. Newcomers to the field will welcome the clear narrative, robust opinions, and sensible overview of the Theodosian Empire, especially the intelligent discussion of military matters (...). This liverly and unpretentious account will serve as a useful starting-point for undergraduates.' (NEIL McLYNN in The Journal of Roman Studies, 1995, p.334). From the library of Professor Carl Deroux.

Description:
New. Emperor Theodosius (379-95) was the last Roman emperor to rule a unified empire of East and West and his reign represents a turning point in the policies and fortunes of the Late Roman Empire. In this imperial biography, Stephen Williams and Gerry Friell bring together literary, archaeological and numismatic evidence concerning this Roman emperor, studying his military and political struggles, which he fought heroically but ultimately in vain.

He instituted a new policy towards the barbarians, in which diplomacy played a larger role than military might, at a time of increasing frontier dangers and acute manpower shortage. He was also the founder of the established Apostolic Catholic Church. Unlike other Christian emperors, he suppressed both heresy and paganism and enforced orthodoxy by law. The path was a…
