Résumé :

This first volume of Procopius' complete works offers a comprehensive look into one of the most important historians of the Byzantine era. Writing in Greek during the 6th century, Procopius is best known for his accounts of the reign of Emperor Justinian I. This collection, presented in Italian, provides invaluable insights into the political, military, and social aspects of the Byzantine world.

Readers will discover detailed narratives of the wars waged by Justinian, including the Vandalic War, the Gothic War, and the Persian War. Beyond military history, Procopius delves into the monumental building projects undertaken during Justinian's rule, such as the Hagia Sophia, offering a glimpse into the architectural and cultural achievements of the time. This volume serves as an essential resource for scholars and anyone interested in understanding the complexities of the Byzantine Empire and its lasting legacy.
