À propos de l'auteur

Timothy D. Barnes is a prominent historian known for his extensive research on early Christianity and Roman history. His work has significantly contributed to the understanding of the interactions between Christianity and the Roman Empire, particularly during the transition period of the late antiquity. Barnes has authored several influential books, including 'Eusebius, Christianity, and Judaism' and 'Constantine: Dynasty, Religion and Power in the Later Roman Empire,' which explore the complex dynamics of faith and power in the ancient world.

Through his rigorous approach to historical sources, Barnes continues to influence both academic and public discourse on the legacy of early Christianity in the Roman context.
