Theodahad

Více o knize

Theodahad, an Ostrogothic king educated in philosophy rather than warfare, finds himself thrust into power as co-regent with his cousin, Queen Amalasuintha. His ambition leads him to conspire against her, but once he ascends to the throne, his inexperience and incompetence hinder his rule. Ultimately, his reign is marked by failure, culminating in his defeat by Byzantine Emperor Justinian and his subsequent death at the hands of his own people.
