This portrayal of one of antiquity's most enigmatic figures offers a vivid and compact assessment of the Apostate's life and reign. Proceeding directly from an evaluation of the ancient sources - the testimony of friends and enemies of Julian as well as the writings of the emperor himself - the author traces Julian's youth, his years as the commander of the Roman forces in Gaul, and his emergence as sole ruler in the course of a dramatic march to Constantinople. In Bowersock's analysis of Julian's religious revolution, the emperor's ardent espousal of a lost cause is seen to have made intolerable demands upon pagans, Jews, and Christians alike.

英文中近几十年来,Julian的传记不多。这本正文不到120页,对于只活了32年的罗马皇帝,而且不想渲染,也就差不多了。作者对史料常有辨析,只是我不熟悉此前的研究,所以没法说作者的突破和贡献。文字比较讲究,和作者推崇吉本恐怕有些关系。居然看到极少被使用的ululation一词(96页)!对Julian没有太多理想化,也没有过多猜测。结尾期待有一点点高潮,有一丁点的感慨和抒怀,却没有,足见作者的节制。
