Bastian Balthasar Bux entdeckt in einer Buchhandlung ein geheimnisvolles Buch, "Die unendliche Geschichte". Begeistert liest er von den Abenteuern des Helden Atréju und seinem gefährlichen Auftrag: Phantásien und seine Herrscherin, die Kindliche Kaiserin, zu retten. Zunächst nur Zuschauer, findet er sich unversehens selbst in Phantásien wieder. TU WAS DU WILLST lautet die Inschrift auf dem Symbol der unumschränkten Herrschaftsgewalt. Doch was dieser Satz in Wirklichkeit bedeutet, erfährt Bastian erst nach einer langen Suche. Denn seine wahre Aufgabe ist es nicht, Phantásien zu beherrschen, sondern wieder herauszufinden. Wie aber verlässt man ein Reich, das keine Grenzen hat?
The year of the four emperors in AD 193 shows the cosmopolitan interconnectedness of the Roman Empire, yet scholarship has long framed the Severan dynasty in a narrative of descent stressing their North African and in particular their Syrian origins. The contributions of this volume question this conventional approach and instead examine more closely actual Severan policy in the Near East to detect potential local connections that determined this policy as well as how local communities and elites reacted to it. The volume thus explores new beginnings and old connections in the Roman Near East.
What happened in the Eastern Roman Empire under Severan rule - do we see new beginnings, old connections?
