About the book: 2024 / Roman Emperor Julian II, who fell away from Christianity, became an adherent of the secret cult of the Sun god and made a grandiose attempt to revive the ancient Hellenic spirit, as the last means of saving traditional ancient civilization, forever inscribed his name in the history of not only the Roman Empire, but also in the history of the Christian Church, which emerged from the fight against the Apostate strengthened and transformed. Struggling with its influence, which he regarded as subversive, he failed, for he defended a historically doomed cause. Many books have been written about Julian, but the “Julian theme” is still not exhausted and is fraught with many mysteries. A new look at Julian and his time is contained in the new book by Wolfgang Akunov. The publishing layout of the book is saved in PDF A4 format.
