This volume offers a new critical edition of the writings of Julian the Apostate during his reign as Roman emperor (361-363 AD). The preface discusses the transmission ofthe texts and the methodological foundation of the edition. The text has an apparatus criticus and apparatus testimoniorum which documents Julian's quotations from and allusions to earlier literature as well as relevant quotations from his writings in later literature.
