Book Synopsis
Examines the government of the Roman empire at an important period of administrative and religious change. Drawing together material from a wide variety of sources, the book studies the vast range of documents issued by the emperors and their officials, and assesses how effectively the machinery of government matched imperial ambitions.

Trade Review
With its undoubted authority and clear organisation, many will be tempted to use The Empire of the Tetrarchs as a reference book; they should not. Corcoran marshals important arguments carefully and quietly, and The Empire of the Tetrarchs deserves to be read from cover to cover. * Roger Rees, Edinburgh University, Hermathena *
A general index and an index locorum complete a thorough and thoroughly impressive work. * Roger Rees, Edinburgh University, Hermathena *
Corcoran enjoys the enviable ability to mine in the murky depths some of Late Antiquity's most impenetrable unaccommodating material - to unearth diamonds ... The Empire of the Tetrarchs is scintillating, valuable and, I'd wager, very durable. * Roger Rees, Edinburgh University, Hermathena *
