CUNOAŞTEREA CATAFATICĂ ŞI APOFATICĂ

Gheorghe Serban

Abstract


The author analyses the 33rd chapter of Sextus Aurelius Victor’s De Caesaribus, referring to
the reign of the Roman emperor Licinius Gallienus, 218-268. The text approaches the beginning of the Roman
empire’s division into microstates, caused by the diminishing of the authority coming from Rome, following
Valerianus’s death, Gallienus’s father. The centrifugal tendency of all the states included in the empire by force
is increasing, but it can mainly be found in the formations from Gallia,Britannia, Palmyra and partially from
Dacia. This state of things is synhcronic.
