CONSTANTINE
THE GREAT
|
|
|
Flavius
Valerius Constantinus, better known as Constantine the Great,
was the first Roman Emperor to adopt Christianity. He was
born at Naissus (modern nis, Yugoslavia) about AD 280, the
son of Constantius Ii, who became a Caesar in the Tetrarchy
established by Diocletian. The nature of Constantine's conversion
to Christianity has long been a matter of dispute. Few emperors
of Rome are as fondly remembered as Constantine the Great.

Thousandth
Anniversary Of The Foundation of Rome
|
|
|
A
native of Arabia, Philip I, historically called "Philip
the Arab" was appointed to the post of Praetorian Prefect
by Gordian III after the death of Timisitheus. He soon brought
about the deposition and murder of the young emperor and
after concluding a satisfactory peace with the Persians,
he returned to Rome. The chief event of Philip's reign was
the celebration, in 248, of the Thousandth Anniversary
of the Foundation of Rome. read

Roma
and the
Glory of the Republic
|
|
|
The
Romans were notorious not for their originality, but for
their ability to adapt other peoples' ideas to their own
needs. They especially did this with religion, in which
they borrowed most of their gods from the Greeks and Egyptians
and simply gave them a Roman name. But one goddess which
was uniquely Roman was Roma, who personified the glory that
was the Rrepublic and later the Empire. read

A
Fine Roman Portrait
|
|
|
The
Roman Emperor Domitian, renowned for his harsh rule and
cruel personal nature, is shown here to be a gentle and
moderate man. The fact is that despite the accuracy of the
image, the overall impression is quite misleading. Domitian's
portrait is typical of the art of the late 1st Century A.D.,
as it achieves a careful balance between reality and political
idealism. read
