Book excerpt: "Croke also casts new light on the career of Marcellinus, his range of literary output, which included books on topography and chronology, and the course and impact of the fifth- and sixth-century raids into Roman Illyricum. This book also enriches our understanding of society and politics in the imperial capital and raises broader questions about Christian life, liturgy, and culture in the sixth century, particularly the role of imperial and religious ceremonial in Byzantine public life."--BOOK JACKET.
