Description

Explore the transformation of political and religious life in the era following the conversion of Constantine. This collection of essays from the Variorum Collected Studies series examines how Christian rulers and congregations developed new styles of political behavior. Readers can examine the shift in imperial power through studies on legislation by emperors, lobbying efforts by bishops, and instances of imperial penance. The text also investigates social dynamics through accounts of popular rioting and the changing ways religious groups presented themselves to the world. Beyond political structures, these papers analyze religious self-presentation as seen in historical sources. This includes the study of inscriptions erected by pagan aristocrats and other primary evidence from the period. This book provides a detailed look at the evolving relationship between church and state during a period of massive cultural change in the Roman world.
