Philippus Arabs war Kaiser des Römischen Reiches von 244 bis 249 n.Chr. Nun liegt, auf der Grundlage der erhaltenen Quellen, zum ersten Mal eine Darstellung dieses aus der Provinz Arabia stammenden Herrschers vor. Der Autor widmet sich insbesondere der unruhigen innen- und außenpolitischen Situation, der Herkunft und Familie des Kaisers, seiner Haltung zur Religion, vor allem zum Christentum. Schließlich wird die Position des Kaisers in den Veränderungen und Reformen des 3. Jh. herausgearbeitet und aufgezeigt, wie sehr er sich in seinem Herrschaftsverständnis an der Severischen Dynastie und an Marc Aurel orientierte. Die vorliegende Arbeit ist die erste Monographie zu Philippus Arabs; aufgrund der schlechten Quellenlage war das Interesse an den Kaisern dieser Periode bislang eher gering. Philippus Arabs was Emperor of Rome from 244 to 249 AD. Using extant sources, this volume presents the first account of this ruler from the Province of Arabia. The author deals particularly with the troubled domestic and foreign political situation, the Emperor's origins and family, and his attitude towards religion, especially Christianity. Finally, his position is developed in the changes and reforms of the 3rd century, and it is shown how much his understanding of power is guided by the Severan dynasty and Marcus Aurelius. The present volume is the first monograph on Philippus Arabs; the paucity of original sources led to little interest being shown in the Emperors from this period.

Philip II of Spain-ruler of the most extensive empire the world had ever known-has been viewed in a harsh and negative light since his death in 1598. Identified with repression, bigotry, and fanaticism by his enemies, he has been judged more by the political events of his reign than by his person. This book, published four hundred years after Philip's death, is the first full-scale biography of the king. Placing him within the social, cultural, religious, and regional context of his times, it presents a startling new picture of his character and reign.Drawing on Philip's unpublished correspondence and on many other archival sources, Henry Kamen reveals much about Philip the youth, the man, the husband, the father, the frequently troubled Christian, and the king. Kamen finds that Philip was a cosmopolitan prince whose extensive experience of northern Europe broadened his cultural imagination and tastes, whose staunchly conservative ideas were far from being illiberal and fanatical, whose religious attitudes led him to accept a practical coexistence with Protestants and Jews, and whose support for Las Casas and other defenders of the Indians in America helped determine government policy. Shedding completely new light on most aspects of Philip's private life and, in consequence, on his public actions, the book is the definitive portrayal of Philip II.

These inventories, are the most important testaments to the very considerable collecting activity of Philip II. They introduce readers to a place, the Royal Alcázar of Madrid, which was the king's main residence and the seat of the councils and, accordingly, the centre of government of the largest and most powerful monarchy of the day. The first and most important of these documents, the post-mortem Inventory of Philip II's possessions, was published in part by Sánchez Cantón between 1956 and 1959. As well as using current palaeographic criteria, the present work is the first complete edition, as it includes the record of the sale of most of these possessions to raise money to alleviate the kingdom's financial woes. This document contains valuable information about the destination and dispersal of many of the inventory items. The other document, the Inventory of Philip II's tapestries, was known only to scholars, who have mentioned a few of the entries. However, it had never been published in full and as a valuable document in its own right. This is the first complete and reliable edition of a set of documents that are essential to understanding the art collecting of the Prudent King, as Philip II was known.
