{"product_id":"secret-history-procopius-9780472087280","title":"Secret History","description":"Written with passion and personal malice, the Secret History of Procopius is a scathing indictment of the emperor Justinian and his sixth-century Byzantine court. Never has there been a more calculated attempt to ruin an entire reign in the eyes of posterity. Procopius writes of: \u003cbr\u003e . . . How the Great General Belisarius was hoodwinked by his wife, whose lover became a monk. \u003cbr\u003e . . . How Theodora, most depraved of all empresses, won Justinian's love. \u003cbr\u003e . . . How she saved five hundred harlots from a life of sin, made off with her own natural son, and other curious incidents of her passion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Procopius\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0472087282\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780472087280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Michigan Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/06\/1960\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.02h x 5.36w x 0.47d","brand":"Procopius","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43919899394303,"sku":"9780472087280","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_1211fa23-8a52-43fa-bc23-5e7a9d1bd050.jpg?v=1680812525","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/secret-history-procopius-9780472087280","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
