The Dynasty of Theodosius: Or Eighty Years' Struggle with the Barbarians is a historical book written by Thomas Hodgkin. It chronicles the reign of the Theodosian dynasty, which ruled the Roman Empire from 379 to 455 AD. The book covers a period of eighty years, during which the empire faced numerous challenges from various barbarian tribes, including the Goths, Huns, and Vandals. Hodgkin provides a detailed account of the political, social, and military events that occurred during this period, including the reigns of Theodosius I, his sons Arcadius and Honorius, and the usurper Joannes. The author also examines the religious and cultural developments of the time, including the rise of Christianity and the influence of classical literature and philosophy. Throughout the book, Hodgkin emphasizes the importance of the Theodosian dynasty in shaping the course of European history. He argues that the dynasty's policies and actions had a profound impact on the development of Western civilization, particularly in the areas of law, governance, and religious thought. Overall, The Dynasty of Theodosius: Or Eighty Years' Struggle with the Barbarians is a comprehensive and insightful account of a crucial period in Roman history. It will appeal to anyone interested in ancient history, military strategy, or the development of Western civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
