About this book

The Breviarium rerum gestarum populi Romani, presented here in a new German translation with brief commentary, was written in the 4th century by a court official named Festus. The text is an example of the breviarium literature popular at the time, but in addition, it tells about the issues current at the time of its creation, particularly conflicts with the Parthian Empire along the eastern boundaries of the Roman Empire.

  • First German translation since the 19th century
  • With introduction and annotations

    Reviews

    "Die Herausgeber haben ihren „Wunsch“, „einem breiten Publikum einen Lesetext mit kurzen Anmerkungen[7] zur Verfügung zu stellen“ (Vorwort, S. [7]), in höchst begrüßenswerter wie eindrucksvoller Weise umgesetzt – der Rezensent wiederum wünscht dem Werk beeindruckt wie dankbar, es möge s/ein Publikum finden." Friedemann Weitz in: Informationsmittel (IFB), http://informationsmittel-fuer-bibliotheken.de/showfile.php?id=10510 (02.11.2020)
