The reign of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian (527-65) stands out in late Roman and medieval history. Justinian re-conquered far-flung territories from the barbarians, overhauled the Empire's administrative framework and codified for posterity the inherited tradition of Roman law. This work represents a modern study in English of the social and economic history of the Eastern Roman Empire in the reign of the Emperor Justinian. Drawing upon papyrological, numismatic, legal, literary and archaeological evidence, the study seeks to reconstruct the emergent nature of relations between landowners and peasants, and aristocrats and emperors in the late antique Eastern Empire. It provides a social and economic context in which to situate the Emperor Justinian's mid-sixth-century reform programme, and questions the implications of the Eastern Empire's pattern of social and economic development under Justinian for its subsequent, post-Justinianic history.

Sowohl die Regierung Kaiser Justinians I. (527-565) als auch die spätantike/frühbyzantinische Armee sind seit einigen Jahren intensiv diskutierte Themen gerade der althistorischen Forschung. Dabei wird allerdings die Militärpolitik aus der Analyse der kaiserlichen Regierung weitgehend ausgeblendet. Die Rolle des Kaisers als Oberkommandierender der Armee findet kaum Beachtung, obgleich Justinian in einem seine Vorgänger weit übertreffenden Maße Kriege geführt hat. Der Kaiser gilt als akribischer Organisator der zivilen Verwaltung, aber militärisch eher als Laie. Hier wird nun erstmals umfassend die These argumentiert, dass Justinian militärischen Sachfragen insgesamt deutlich mehr Aufmerksamkeit gewidmet hat als bislang angenommen. Von Beginn an betrieb er eine aktive Militärpolitik, die freilich zunehmend politischen und finanziellen Kontigenzen ausgesetzt war und schließlich scheiterte. An der Schnittstelle von Alter Geschichte, Byzantinistik und Militärgeschichte angesiedelt, stellt die Studie somit einen Beitrag zu der vieldiskutierten Frage nach den konkreten Entscheidungsabläufen und der Intentionalität des kaiserlichen Handelns im frühen Byzanz dar.

Using documents, glosses, legal commentaries, and the first paleographical study of manuscripts since the mid-nineteenth century, the authors of this book trace the circulation of the Corpus Iuris Civilis from late antiquity until the early twelfth century. They demonstrate that only the Novels found any significant readership in the early Middle Ages, and that Justinian’s Institutes, Code, and Digest emerged from obscurity only in the mid-eleventh century, when they were taken up by northern-Italian specialists in Lombard law. Separate chapters then consider the evidence for the textual history and reception of the Institutes, Code, and Digest. Included in the volume are plates of all of the most important early manuscripts of Justinian’s works, most of which have never been published before.
