• Resumen

  • With the recent publication of the proceedings of an international conference held at Eutin (Germany) in 2000 (in collaboration with German, French and Italian students, and edited by Joseph Wiesehöfer et Philip Huyse), it is now possible to outline some of the characteristics of Late Antique Iran, under the Sassanians. While the chronological limits of this historical period in Iran correspond almost perfectly to those of Late Antique Greek and Roman world, several other similarities between these two perpetual enemies of Antiquity may also be highlighted. The perspective adopted in this excellent, highly interdisciplinary publication (though based essentially on approaches drawn from Iranian studies) constitutes a significant advance in the state of knowledge regarding relations between Ctesiphon and Rome/Constantinople.
