Reviews
"Peter Sarris's Justinian is magnificent. A vivid and authoritative biography of one of Rome's most fascinating rulers, Justinian is also a vibrant portrait of an entire world--a resurgent Roman Empire suddenly devastated by tragedy." -- Kyle Harper, author of The Fate of Rome, "An expert, readable and thought-provoking biography of Justinian...This book is essential reading for anyone curious about later antiquity, and it will give profit and pleasure to those with broader interests."-- London Review of Books

Synopsis
A definitive new biography of the Byzantine emperor Justinian Justinian is a radical reassessment of an emperor and his times. In the sixth century CE, the emperor Justinian presided over nearly four decades of remarkable change, in an era of geopolitical threats, climate change, and plague. From the eastern Roman--or Byzantine--capital of Constantinople, Justinian's armies reconquered lost territory in Africa, Italy, and Spain. But these military exploits, historian Peter Sarris shows, were just one part of a larger program of imperial renewal. From his dramatic overhaul of Roman law, to his lavish building projects, to his fierce persecution of dissenters from Orthodox Christianity, Justinian's vigorous statecraft--and his energetic efforts at self-glorification--not only set the course of Byzantium but also laid the foundations for the world of the Middle Ages. Even as Justinian sought to recapture Rome's past greatness, he paved the way for what would follow.

- c***l (89)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe item I purchased from this seller, a church hymnal, came packaged and shipped just as described! The owner even let me know by notification when he or she put it it the mail, which is rare for what I have experienced! The value of the cymbal I purchased was excellent and the hymnal was in pristine condition! I would very highly reccomend this ebay seller!
- _***n (5)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseI received the book and was disappointed at how crooked the cover and spine was and messaged the seller right away about a refund/return. After taking a better look at the ad I realized that I completely missed the fact that the defects were clearly mentioned and shown in the details. I apologized for my assumption and shortcoming but nonetheless, the sell still issued me a refund immediately and told me to keep the book. Quick response, good packaging, priced fair for quality.PRIDE AND PREJUDICE By Jane Austen 1945 ICL Faux Leather HC Illustrated (#177241377945)
