> life of late antiquity, with particular emphasis on 1) the
> functioning of Roman and
> post-Roman government and the tensions between center and periphery
> 2) the gap
> between rhetoric and reality in the practice of politics 3) the material
> expressions of politics and government, as reflected in art,
> architecture, and
> archaeological evidence.
