Santa giusta umanitaria.

Armi, Church, and State in th Age of Arcadius ad Chrysostom. Oxford, Clarendon Press 1992, cm.15x21, pp.315, con illustrazioni. brossura copertina figurata. In this illuminating study Liebeschuetz examines two fundamental themes of Late Antiquity: the barbarization of the Roman army and the interrelation of Church and secular government. He discusses Alaric's Goths in the West, who were treated as a federate regiment rather than a migrating tribe; how the civilian authorities at Constantinople maintained control over the largely German army in a conflict that culminated in the Gainas rising; and how the same authorities came into conflict with John Chrysostom, the bishop of Constantinople, and had him deposed.
