Opis

Provides new insights into Rome's collapse, challenging long-held assumptions that Theoderic's reign was a golden age for Italy.

Recenzje

'… the book succeeds admirably in using the Edictum to describe and analyse its world. The volume should achieve a wide and grateful readership among early medievalists and among legal historians.' John Hudson, Early Medieval Europe
