Sasanian Persia, which succeeded the Parthians, was one of the
great powers of late antiquity and the most significant power in
the Near East, together with the Roman Empire. This book undertakes
a thorough investigation of the diverse range of written,
numismatic, and archaeological sources in order to reassess
Sasanian political ideology and its sources and influences in the
ideologies of the Achaemenid Persian Empire, Babylonian scholarship
and prophecy, and Hellenistic Greek thought. It sheds fresh light
on the political complexities of early Arsacid and Sasanian
history, especially the situation in Babylon and Elymais, and on
the Roman propaganda which penetrated, shaped, and determined Roman
attitudes towards Sasanian Persia.
