Abstract

"Constantine was the first Roman emperor to convert to Christianity. The book explores the emperor's image as conveyed through literature, art, and architecture, and shows how Constantine reconciled the tradition of imperial divinity with his monotheistic faith. It demonstrates how the traditional themes and imagery of kingship were exploited to portray the emperor as the saviour of his people and to assimilate him to Christ. This is the first book to study simultaneously both archaeological and historical information to build a picture of the emperor's image and propaganda. It is extensively illustrated" --Provided by publisher.

Abstract

Für den Geschichtsschreiber Widukind von Corvey war Otto I. "das Haupt der ganzen Welt" und Thietmar von Merseburg rühmte die Herrschaft des Kaisers als goldenes Zeitalter. Im Jahre 2012 jährt sich der Geburtstag Ottos des Großen zum 1100. und seine Kaiserkrönung in Rom zum 1050. Mal. Das Kulturhistorische Museum Magdeburg präsentiert aus diesem Anlass in der Landesausstellung Sachsen-Anhalt 2012 erstmals die Ideengeschichte des Kaisertums in der römisch-europäischen Geschichte von Augustus bis zu den Kaisern der Ottonen. Exhibition: Kulturhistorischen Museum Magdeburg, Germany (27.8.-9.12.2012).
