Late Antiquity was an eventful period on the eastern frontier of the Roman Empire, with the Romans and Persians engaged in almost constant conflict. This book provides translations of key texts on relations between the opposing sides. 'A major achievement ... this is an ambitious and learned project demonstrating impressive mastery of recent scholarship in a period for which source material is complex.' - The Classical Review 'The list of all the subjects upon which the book brings a quality bibliographic and scientific focus ? surpasses the scope of this review, and only confirms the arrival, with this volume, of a very useful study tool.' - An Tard, 11, 2003
