In Praise of Constantius argues that prominent pagan orators in Late Antiquity used the performance of speeches of praise to control and respond to significant shifts in their own careers and in imperial policy during the early decades of Roman Christian monarchy. Combining literary and historical analysis, the book charts the development of Greek prose literature beyond the early centuries of Roman control of the eastern Mediterranean.
