From the Later Roman Empire to Late Antiquity and Beyond

This collection (Cameron’s third in the Variorum series) discusses the changing approach among historians of the later Roman empire from the 1960s to the present and the articles reproduced have been chosen to reflect both these wider changes in treatments of the subject as well as Cameron’s own development as a historian over many decades.

Averil Cameron is the author of two previous Variorum volumes and many books and articles about late antiquity and Byzantium. In her long career she has been professor of Byzantine studies at King’s College London and of Byzantine history at the University of Oxford, where she was also Warden of Keble College from 1994 to 2010. Her most recent books include Byzantine Matters (2014), Dialoguing in Late Antiquity (2014), Arguing It Out (2016) and Byzantine Christianity (2017).
