<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:10.0pt">This book rediscovers a lost history of the Roman Empire, written by Sextus Aurelius Victor (ca. 320-390) and demonstrates for the first time both the contemporary and lasting influence of his historical work. Though
little regarded today, Victor is the best-attested historian of the later Roman Empire, read by Jerome and Ammianus, honoured with a statue by the pagan Emperor Julian and appointed to a prestigious prefecture by the Christian Theodosius. Through careful analysis
of the ancient evidence, including newly discovered material, this book re-examines the two short imperial histories attributed to Victor in the manuscripts, known today as the <i>Caesares</i> and the <i>Epitome de Caesaribus</i>, and discusses a wide range
of both canonical and neglected authors and texts, from Sallust and Tacitus to Eunapius and the <i>Historia Augusta</i>.<o:p></o:p></span></li></ul>
