Résumé

Discover the profound intersection of politics, religion, and symbolism in The Symbolism of Divine Sanction in the Roman Tetrarchic System by Philip Davies. This compelling study unravels how the unprecedented rule of four emperors under Diocletian was not only a political innovation but a carefully sacralized system rooted in powerful religious imagery and symbolism. Through in-depth analysis of coinage, statues, architecture, festivals, and imperial propaganda, Davies reveals how divine authority was crafted, communicated, and maintained to legitimize collective rule over a vast and diverse empire.
Perfect for history enthusiasts, classicists, and readers fascinated by the ancient world's political theology, this book offers fresh insights into the role of religion in shaping imperial power and identity. Engaging, scholarly, and richly illustrated with primary sources and archaeological evidence, it sheds new light on a transformative moment in Roman history that influenced the future of monarchy and statecraft across centuries.
Step into the world of the Roman Tetrarchy and explore how divine sanction became the cornerstone of imperial authority-an enduring legacy of power, faith, and symbolism.
