A VIVID\u003c\/b\u003ed and authoritative biography . . . a vibrant portrait of an entire world' Kyle Harper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'A stunning tour de force, Sarris brings one of history's most momentous dramas back to life' Walter Scheidel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this groundbreaking new biography of Justinian, Peter Sarris gives us an intimate insight into both the Emperor and the man. We meet a man who from the humblest beginnings, rose to become ruler of much of the known world achieving an almost god-like status.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn emperor who infused even the most mundane tasks with spiritual and religious significance. A gifted administrator obsessed with detail. A middle aged lover who fell for a dancing girl and changed the law so he could marry her, ruling with Empress Theodora by his side for over twenty years. A brilliant military strategist who was never a soldier.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe challenges he faced - climate change, battles over culture and identity, the first recorded global pandemic -and many of the solutions he found to address them still resonate with us today. And his legacy remains all around us, in the massive building programme of which the most beautiful manifestation is surely Hagia Sophia; in our legal systems through the codification of the Corpus juris civilis; and in our culture and history by making a fundamental contribution to both the formation of Christendom and the emergence of Islam.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this tour de force Peter Sarris shows us that in all his complexity and contradictions Justinian was, in many ways, a very modern Emperor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 0 20px 0 20px; border: thin solid #000000;\"\u003e\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eBindning:\u003c\/b\u003e Häftad. 8:o (153x234 mm) \u003cb\u003eÅr:\u003c\/b\u003e 2023. \u003cb\u003eOmfång:\u003c\/b\u003e 384 s. \u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781529365399. \u003cb\u003eSpråk:\u003c\/b\u003e Engelska\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHitta fler liknande böcker i dessa kategorier:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='https:\/\/bok.hstrom.se\/pages\/humaniora'\"\u003eHumaniora\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--secondary\" onclick=\"window.location.href='https:\/\/bok.hstrom.se\/collections\/religion-esoterika'\"\u003eReligion \u0026amp; esoterika\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--full-width \" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=title:Sarris%2BProfessor%2BPeter%2BJustinian'\"\u003eSök fler exemplar av denna bok\u003c\/button\u003e\u003cbutton class=\"product-form__submit button button--full-width \" onclick=\"window.location.href='\/search?q=title:Professor%2BPeter%2BSarris'\"\u003eFler böcker av Professor Peter Sarris\u003c\/button\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"padding: 0 20px 0 20px; border: thin solid #000000;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller; font-weight:bold;\"\u003eAnvänd gärna länkarna nedan för att hitta liknande böcker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: smaller;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eFörfattare:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=title:Sarris+Professor+Peter\"\u003eSarris, Professor Peter\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTitel:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=title:Justinian\"\u003eJustinian\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFörlag:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=vendor:Hachette+UK+Distribution\"\u003eHachette UK Distribution\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGenre:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Religion\"\u003eReligion\u003c\/a\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eArtikelnr:\u003c\/b\u003e 166882239\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette UK Distribution","offers":[{"title":"Förlagsny bok \/ Häftad","offer_id":44612499243275,"sku":"166882239","price":498.0,"currency_code":"SEK","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0651\/8856\/1163\/files\/no_image_e5633513-7365-4378-af84-9a26a9f06b4f.jpg?v=1719628954","url":"https:\/\/bok.hstrom.se\/products\/166882239","provider":"bok.hstrom.se | Antikvariat \u0026 Bokhandel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
