Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a detailed account of the lives and accomplishments of two high-ranking military figures serving under Emperor Justinian, as well as a provincial governor of Palestine. The author, Chorikios of Gaza, was a contemporary of the men he describes and a gifted orator. His v…ivid prose and firsthand knowledge bring to life a tumultuous period in history. Though Chorikios focuses on the careers of these individuals, he also provides a broader overview of the political and military landscape of the Eastern Roman Empire during the first half of the 6th century CE. Chorikios's work provides valuable insights into the challenges faced by Justinian's administration, including barbarian incursions, rampant banditry, and the ever-present threat of famine. It also sheds light on the role of the military in maintaining order and security within the empire's vast and diverse territories. Moreover, the author explores the complex relationship between the central government and local authorities, highlighting the importance of capable and dedicated provincial governors. Through its vivid descriptions and insightful analysis, this book offers a unique perspective on a pivotal era in Late Antiquity.
