The author perceives the image of emperors as consisting both of their direct description (personality, virtues and vices, as well as their appearance etc.) and indirect depiction ? extrapolated from their policies and events that took place during their reign, which could be treated by Evagrius as the result of their rule. The book is not only a rich source of our knowledge on Evagrius Scholasticus, his literary craft and inspirations, but it also constitutes an interesting panorama of the history of the eastern part of the Roman Empire in the 5th and 6th centuries. ?When characterising the work, one more aspect of the research methodology should be mentioned. Kazimierz Ginter belongs to the generation of scholars who eagerly employ modern instruments of scientific work, thus enlarging the set of research tools for late antiquity. Analysing the written material, he opted for an instrument designed for identifying convergent points and specifying their provenance (via the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae project), which enabled him to establish links between the main source and other ancient and Byzantine texts. I am convinced that Kazimierz Ginter?s work . . . presenting Evagrius and his work from the new perspective deserves to be published.? 606 $aHistory 606 $aAncient World 606 $aMiddle Ages 606 $a6th to 12th Centuries 615 0$aHistory 615 0$aAncient World 615 0$aMiddle Ages 615 0$a6th to 12th Centuries 700 $aGinter$b Kazimierz$01826407 712 02$aCentral and Eastern European Online Library 801 0$bceeol 801 1$bceeol 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910874769803321 996 $aWizerunek w?adców bizanty?skich w Historii ko?cielnej Ewagriusza Scholastyka$94394386 997 $aUNINA
