Routledge, London, 1988. Rev.ed. XII,292p. ills. Paperback. Nice copy. ?In this revised edition of his 1972 biography of Septimus Severus, Birley has made use of recent archaeological and papyrological discoveries germane to his subject, and has augmented the bibliographies, which are subdivided by chapter, to incorporate works up to 1988. Of the two appendices, the first, ?Ancient Evidence on Modern Scholarship?, which is new, offers much needed discussion of the problematical primary sources for Severan history and is particularly welcome; while the second, an expanded account of the family of Septimus, is presented with clarity and elegance. The book remains, however, essentially the same: a carefully crafted, linear historical narrative that chronicles the rise, reign, and demise of the emperor from Lepcis. The first half provides a detailed backdrop to Septimus? earlier career; the second describes his activities as emperor (primarily military), and briefly summarizes the aftermath of his rule.? (PATRICIA A. CLARK in The International History Review, 1990, p.127). From the library of Prof. Carl Deroux.…

Routledge, London, 2000. Reprint rev.paperback ed. 320,(16)p. ills.(B&W photographs). Paperback. Nice copy. ?For the history of Christianity in the second century the two most important emperors are Hadrian and Marcus Aurelius, and the church historian needs competent guides to the lives, thought, and policies of both. Professor Birley of Manchester is such a guide for the life of Marcus, and his work, (?) will be indispensable for understanding the latter half of the second century. He says it is a biography, not a ?life and times?, but he illuminates the times as well, especially in regard to Christianity. (?) One can find no better introduction than Birley?s book, with its sensible analyses and compendious quotations from the sources. This second edition brings the bibliography up to date and (?) clears up some imperial family relationships (Appendix 2) and considers research ?on the Greek intellectual renaissance, on Fronto, and on the emerging Christians? (?). An important chapter shows that the emperor?s ?Meditations? are not timeless but are related to the wartime situations in which he composed them. (?) In any event, the book should be in the hands of anyone concerned with early church history or the history of the Roman world.? (R.M. GRANT in Church History, 1988, pp.76-77). From the library of Prof. Carl Deroux. …
