Performing Justice in the Later Roman Empire
Van Nuffelen, Peter (Universiteit Gent, Belgium)
In the Later Roman Empire (AD 300–650), power seems to manifest itself mostly through legislation, bureaucracy, and an increasingly distant emperor. This book focuses instead on personal interaction as crucial to the exercise of power. It thus shows how subaltern individuals could exploit hierarchical relations to their own benefit.
