In 400 the mighty Roman Empire was almost as large as it had ever
been; within three centuries, advances by Germanic peoples in
western Europe, Slavs in eastern Europe and Arabs around the
eastern and southern shores of the Mediterranean had brought about
the loss of most of its territory. Ranging from Britain to
Mesopotamia, this book explores the changes that resulted from
these movements. It shows the different paths away from the
classical past that were taken, and how the relatively unified
civilization of the ancient Mediterranean gave place to the very
different civilizations that cluster around the sea today. This
comprehensive and authoritative second edition has been thoroughly
revised and updated line-by-line, and contains several new sections
dealing for instance with the new evidence provided by recent finds
like the Staffordshire Treasure and the widespread effects of the
plague. As well as a completely new bibliographical essay, The
Roman Empire Divided now also includes six maps and an expanded
selection of illustrations fully integrated in the text.
