An examination of Constantine the Great's legislation and government

Review Quotes: "Dillon suggests that Constantine transformed the office of emperor "into a relatively proactive popularizing autocracy that would persist long after his reign". Dillon proves his arguments brilliantly. His book presents a nuanced reading of Roman law and a provocative portrait of Constantine's reign."
