Fülszöveg


Written with passion and personal malice, the secret history of Procopius is a scathing in-' dictment of the emperor Justinian and his sixth-century Byzantine court. Never has there been a more calculated attempt to ruin an entire reign in the eyes of posterity. Procopius writes of: How the Great General Belisarius was hoodwinked by his wife, whose lover became a monk. How Theodora, most depraved of all empresses, won Justinian's love. How she saved five hundred harlots from a life of sin, made off with her own natural son, and other curious incidents of her passion.
" a first-rate job the translation is not only lucid, but wholly engaging and compelling."

-arthur e. r. boak
procopius was the greatest historian of the Later Roman Empire. He was the author of an account, of the Persian, Vandal, and Gothic Wars called the history of the wars, and of buildings of
Justinian. His secret history lay unpublished until 1623. The present translation by Richard At-water is the only one to stand as a work of literature in its own right. Vissza
