But Constantine is also notable for his ability to control a sprawling empire and effect major changes. The Justice of Constantine examines Constantine's judicial and administrative legislation and his efforts to maintain control over the imperial bureaucracy, to guarantee the working of Roman justice, and to keep the will of his subjects throughout the Roman Empire. John Dillon first analyzes the record of Constantine's legislation and its relationship to prior legislation. His initial chapters also serve as an introduction to Roman law and administration in later antiquity. Dillon then considers Constantine's public edicts and internal communications about access to law, trials and procedure, corruption, and punishment for administrative abuses. How imperial officials relied on correspondence with Constantine to resolve legal questions is also considered. A study of Constantine's expedited appellate system, to ensure provincial justice, concludes the book. Constantine's constitutions reveal much about the Theodosian Code and the laws included in it. Constantine consistently seeks direct sources of reliable information in order to enforce his will. In official correspondence, meanwhile, Constantine strives to maintain control over his officials through punishment; trusted agents; and the cultivation of accountability, rivalry, and suspicion among them. 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 600 00 Constantine|bI,|cEmperor of Rome,|d-337.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79055925 600 07 Constantine|bI,|cEmperor of Rome,|d-337.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1813658 648 7 306-337|2fast 650 0 Roman law|vSources.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85114940 650 0 Roman law|xHistory.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85114934 650 0 Roman law|xHistory|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85114934|xSources.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002012010 650 0 Justice, Administration of (Roman law)|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/subjects/sh85071132|xHistory.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99005024 650 7 Roman law|xSources.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1099777 650 7 Roman law.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1099759 650 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/958235 650 7 Justice, Administration of (Roman law)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/985218 651 0 Rome|xHistory|yConstantine I, the Great, 306-337.|0https:/ /id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115161 651 0 Rome|xHistory|yConstantine I, the Great, 306-337|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85115161|xSources. |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002012010 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 History.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 655 7 Sources.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423900 776 08 |iPrint version:|z9786613855800|w(DLC) 2012005025 830 0 Law and society in the ancient world.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2009097153 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=478259|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
