Recenzii

'This book makes interesting reading and is a valuable contribution to Constantinian studies.' - Jan Willem Drijvers, The Classical Review

'This volume offers examples of important modern scholarship inviting some reassessment of his significance, as well as an informative entree into the almost unrecognizable figure that later legends made of him' - Journal of Theological Studies
