The Secret History by Procopius

2.0

I agree with the translator : who was it for ? While Justinian lived, this book was suicide. After the emperor's or Procopius' own death, this book was both irrelevant & too hyperbole to inspire a damnatio memoriae . Above all, as far as condemnations go, Cicero vs Catalina was a model of restraint by comparison.
