Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Two Studies in Later Roman and Byzantine Administration' offers a rigorous scholarly examination of the complex bureaucratic structures that sustained the Roman Empire during its transition into the Byzantine era. This volume comprises two distinct research papers by Arthur E. R. Boak and James E. Dunlap, each focusing on a pivotal administrative role within the imperial court system.The first study, conducted by Boak, investigates the 'Master of the Offices,' tracing the evolution of this powerful position from its inception to its eventual transformation. It details the vast responsibilities of the office, ranging from the management of the imperial post to the oversight of the secretariats and state ceremonies. The second study, by Dunlap, explores the 'Office of the Grand Chamberlain,' a role that wielded significant influence within the imperial household. Dunlap analyzes the duties, social status, and political impact of the officials who occupied this position, shedding light on the inner workings of the palace hierarchy.Together, these studies offer invaluable insights into the centralization of power, the professionalization of the civil service, and the continuity of Roman governance. This work remains a fundamental resource for historians of Late Antiquity and Byzantium, providing a detailed window into the mechanisms of imperial authority.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
