Maternal Megalomania by Julie Langford
She employs Julia Domna as a case study to explore the creation of ideology between the emperor and its subjects.
Using contemporary and later literary sources and artifacts such as imperial coins and monument inscriptions produced during the Severan dynasty, Langford questions Empress Julia Domna's power and influence in Severan politicsChoice Provocative and original... Langford's conclusions are daring and... mark out significant new territory in the study of the political culture of the High Empire. -- Adam Kemezis Bryn Mawr Classical Review In just 123 pages, Langford adds a new dimension to the proliferation of texts about Rome's first third-century empress. -- Ryan Ricciardi New England Classical Journal
