| Σύνοψη: | The conversion of Constantine to Christianity was commented upon in many ways by Arab historiographers, both Muslim and Christian. Through a source-oriented study of different historical works, this book provides valuable insight into the methodological challenges and approaches linked to this important chapter of Roman history, dealt with by many generations of Byzantine and Syriac historians. The present work thus sheds light on the different discourses through which the story of the first Christian emperor of Rome became meaningful for readers in the dār al-islām |
