The Secret History ~ Procopius in Slipcase
Folio Society First Edition Hardback 1990
Mosaic pattern on spine and both boards, 151 pages, colored illustrations, map and an index.
Having dutifully written the official war history of Justinian's reign, Procopius turned round and revealed in The Secret History the other faces of the leading men and women of Byzantium in the sixth century. Justinian, the great law-giver, appears as a hateful tyrant, wedded to an ex-prostit*te, Theodora; and Belisarius, the brilliant general whose secretary Procopius had been, is seen as the pliable dupe of his wife Antonina, a woman as corrupt and scheming as Theodora herself.
