Description
The Last Roman is the only biography about Romulus Augustulus.
It focuses on the personalities behind this powerful story and reveals the world into which Romulus was born - an empire that was about to die.
Author Adrian Murdoch explores how Romulus's father Orestes, secretary to Attila the Hun, rose through the ranks to become kingmaker; how all was lost to another usurper in an Italy wracked with civil war; and how Romulus found peace at last, founding a monastery.
This dramatic and poignant story of politics, decline and loss has inspired.
Drawing on extensive new archaeological and historical research and using numerous contemporary sources, many translated for the first time since the nineteenth century, The Last Roman is the vivid story of an empire breathing its last.
