Summary |
"A study of Emperor Julian's efforts to reverse his uncle Constantine's Christian revolution. A close study of Julian's works suggests that he was in many ways a typical Roman emperor, both pragmatic and rational, who employed his familiarity with Christianity in an attempt to supplant both Christ and the Church"-- Provided by publisher. |
