Theodosius: The Empire at Bay by Stephen Williams,

Theodosius: The Empire at Bay by Stephen Williams,
Theodosius I was the last Roman emperor to rule over both East and West. After the military disaster of Adrianople he had to rebuild the state by adopting a new policy of cooperation with the barbarians. He also suppressed paganism and established a unified Catholic Church by law. His reign was a turning point in the history of the late Roman Empire. The authors describe the military, political, and religious struggles of this turbulent period and analyze the far-reaching effects of his policies in the fourth and fifth centuries. "One cannot help grappling with historical issues while reading this book. Nonspecialists will find much here to reward their efforts". -- Thomas S. Burns, American Historical Review "A model of clarity and organization. Within a basically narrative structure it tells the story of the Roman Empire from Adrianople (378 CE) to the Vandal conquest of North Africa (430 CE), with particular emphasis on military and religious policies .... A rare work, in that it is valuable to students and scholars at all levels". -- Choice "A coherent narrative of the crisis-ridden years of the late fourth century, as well as a useful general discussion of the society, institutions, and structures of the late empire". -- R.

The Lives of the Twelve Caesars by Suetonius,
The Lives of the Twelve Caesars by Suetonius,
The Lives of the Twelve Caesars by Suetonius (born 69 A.D.), covering the Roman rulers from Julius Caesar to Domitian, remains one of the most enlightening of all Roman histories. As a personal secretary to the Emperor Hadrian, Suetonius had access to the Imperial and Senatorial archives and also gathered much information from eyewitnesses, checking his facts carefully and quoting conflicting evidence without bias. Each biography describes first the family history and early life of the subject, then his public career and physical appearance. But it is on the racy and vivid details of the Caesars' private lives -- and in particular on their often colorful vices -- that Suetonius's interest is concentrated. His book became a model for biography and its influence would eventually extend to the Christian writers, to Petrarch and even the Renaissance. Numerous integrated black-and-white illustrations that explore Roman life, religion and nature, combined with Robert Graves's classic translation, bring back to life the world of 1st-century Rome and its Empire.

Imperial Crown of the Holy Roman Empire - The Imperial Crown (in German: Reichskrone), is the crown of the Kings and Emperors of the Holy Roman Empire since the Late Middle Ages. Most of the kings since Konrad II were crowned with it.

Imperial Free City - In the Holy Roman Empire, an imperial free city (in German: freie Reichsstadt) was a city formally responsible to the emperor only — as opposed to the majority of cities in the Empire, which belonged to a territory and were thus governed by one of the many princes (Fürsten) of the Empire, such as dukes or prince-bishops. Free cities also had independent representation in the Reichstag of the Holy Roman Empire.

List of Imperial Roman victory titles - This document is a list of victory titles assumed by Roman Emperors, not including assumption of the title Imperator (is itself a victory title); note that the Roman Emperors were not the only persons to assume victory titles (Maximinus Thrax acquired his victory title during the reign of a previous Emperor). In many ways, the Imperial victory titles give an interesting summary of which wars and which peoples were considered significant by the senior leadership of the Roman Empire.

List of early imperial Roman consuls - The List of Consuls of the Roman Empire to the death of Commodus.
