The crisis of the third century saw Rome not only embroiled in
contests of succeeding short-lived Emperors, but assailed by an
increasing variety of hostile peoples from outside its frontiers.
Owing to the complex racial interplay of this period, the sources
for its history have to be compiled from a wide variety of sources.
The least adequate are those in Latin, the imperial lives of the
Historia Augusta . These have to be supplemented by the Greek
chronicles of Zosimus and John Malalas of Antioch, as well as the
Armenian history of Moses of Chorene, the Arabic History of the
Arabs of Al-Tabari , as well as inscriptions in Greek, Latin,
Hebrew, Syrian and other languages. This volume collects these
diverse sources for the first time in English translation, and will
be a uniquely valuable resource for scholars working on a period of
Roman history that is attracting increasing attention.
