The De Re Militari of Vegetius: The Reception, Transmission And Legacy Of A Roman Text In The Middle Ages

Description

Vegetius' late Roman text became a best-selling military 'classic' in the Middle Ages, and this fascinating study explores its reception and transmission. Although always read principally as a work offering practical military advice, the text was also transformed into an authority on war and inspired unexpected developments in the medieval world.
