Résumé

Military Anarchy: The Era of the Soldier Emperors plunges readers into one of the most dramatic and transformative chapters in Roman history-a time when the empire's throne was seized and lost not by birthright, but by the sword. Spanning the turbulent third century AD, this gripping exploration reveals how a relentless cycle of military coups, rapid successions, and regional breakaways nearly shattered Rome's vast dominion.
From brutal generals risen from the ranks to enigmatic provincial warlords claiming imperial power, the book unpacks the raw realities behind the mythic "soldier emperors" whose reigns redefined loyalty, legitimacy, and governance. It delves deep into the shadowy role of the Praetorian Guard, the legionary legacies that fueled civil wars, and the seismic impact of these upheavals on Roman society, economy, and politics.
Through rich historical analysis, vivid storytelling, and incisive interpretation of ancient sources, Military Anarchy reveals how this chaotic era, far from merely marking Rome's decline, forced the empire to evolve-setting the stage for sweeping reforms that shaped the late antique world and beyond. For lovers of history, military drama, and political intrigue, this is a definitive account of how power, ambition, and survival collided in an empire on the edge.
