Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In Justinian I: The Emperor Who Tried to Rebuild Rome, Edward Harcourt brings to life the ruler who stood at the crossroads of antiquity and transformation. Rising from the Balkan frontier to the throne of Constantinople, Justinian governed an empire still shaped by the memory of Rome and d…riven by the ambition to restore it. Drawing on sources such as Wars, The Buildings, and the Corpus Juris Civilis, Harcourt traces a reign defined by expansion, reform, and strain. The campaigns of Belisarius and Narses reclaimed North Africa and Italy, while the codification of Roman law imposed a lasting structure on governance. In the capital, the construction of Hagia Sophia embodied imperial authority and spiritual vision in stone and light. Yet this achievement came at a cost. War stretched resources, the eastern frontier demanded constant attention, and the plague reshaped the population and economy. Justinian's effort to enforce unity, both political and religious, revealed the limits of control in a changing world. This book presents a ruler driven by the desire to reclaim what was already slipping away. The empire he left behind was vast and ordered, yet under pressure. Justinian's reign stands as a final, powerful assertion of Rome's legacy, suspended between what had been and what would follow. This item is printed on demand.
