The Emperor Domitian (Hardcover)

Domitian, Emperor of Rome AD 81-96, has traditionally been portrayed as a tyrant, and his later years on the throne as a `reign of terror'. Brian Jones' biography of the emperor, the first ever in English, offers a more balanced view of the life of Domitian, arguing that his foreign policy was realistic, his economic programme rigorously efficient and his supposed persecution of the early Christians non-existent. Central to
an understanding of the emperor's policies is his relationship with his court. Brian Jones shows that the real intentions of Domitian's cultural, economic, religious and political programme have often not been fully appreciated.
