Yet at least officially the emperor did not exist. No one knew exactly what titles he possessed how he could be portrayed what exactly he had to do or how the succession was organised. Everyone knew however that the emperor held ultimate power over the empire. There were also expectations about what he should do and be although these varied throughout the empire and also evolved over time. How did these expectations develop and change? To what degree could an emperor deviate from prevailing norms? And what role did major developments in Roman society such as the rise of Christianity or the choice of Constantinople as the new capital play in the ways in which emperors could exercise their rule? This ambitious and engaging book describes the surprising stability of the Roman Empire over more than six centuries of history.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Caesar Rules The Emperor In The Changing Roman World (C. 50 Bc Ad 565)\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Hekster Olivier (Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781009226790\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 414 Pages, Worked Examples Or Exercises\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 2\/2\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Classical History \/ Classical Civilisation","brand":"Hekster Olivier (Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49599594725681,"sku":"IN-G-9781009226790","price":40.29,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781009226790.jpg?v=1724457991","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781009226790-caesar-rules-the-emperor-in-the-changing-roman-world-c-50-bc-ad-565","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
