Procopius and the Sixth Century

<p>Originally published by Duckworth and the University of California Press <em>Procopius</em> is now available for the first time in paperback. Professor Cameron emphasises the essential unity of Procopius' three works and starting from the `minor' ones demonstrates their intimate connection with the <em>Wars</em>. Procopius' writings are seen to comprise a subtle whole; only if they are understood in this way can their historical value be properly appreciated. The result is a new evaluation of Procopius which will be central to any future history of the sixth century.</p>
