Galerius and the Will of Diocletian Hardcover - 2009 - 1st Edition

by William Lewis Leadbetter


From the publisher

Drawing from a variety of sources - literary, visual, archaeological; papyri, inscriptions and coins - the author studies the nature of Diocletian's imperial strategy, his wars, his religious views and his abdication. The author also examines Galerius' endeavour to take control of Diocletian's empire, his failures and successes, against the backdrop of Constantine's remorseless drive to power.

The first comprehensive study of the Emperor Galerius, this book offers an innovative analysis of his reign as both Caesar and Augustus, using his changing relationship with Diocletian as the principal key to unlock the complex imperial politics of the period.

Hardback. New. A study of the emperor Galerius, presenting how he interacted with his co-emperor the great Diocletian and how their policies were developed.
