Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the life and legacy of Galla Placidia, a woman who lived through a tumultuous period in Roman history. Born into the imperial family, Galla's life was marked by both triumph and tragedy. She was married to two powerful men, the Visigothic king Ataulf and the Roman emperor Constantius III, and became the mother of Valentinian III, the last emperor of the Western Roman Empire. Through her marriages and political alliances, Galla played a pivotal role in shaping the course of history during the decline of the Roman Empire. The author draws on a variety of historical sources to paint a vivid portrait of Galla Placidia, exploring her personal life, her political influence, and her enduring legacy as a symbol of both the strength and fragility of the Roman Empire.
