The sources history left for us to read are often biased one way or the other as he is the first Christian Roman emperor. His own propaganda paints a bright picture of his actions and his personality, while on the other side, we have his political enemies who paint him in much darker colors. All of the sources available to us are either fully supporting Constantine or are strictly against him. There is no objective work that will give us any true insight on how Constantine lived, what he was thinking, and what his true motives were. In truth, contemporary historians served the purpose of writing what the people wanted to hear. They followed the latest political and cultural trends, and they did not care too much about objectivism and truth.See all captivating history books here:https://www.amazon.com/author/captivatinghistoryFollow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/captivatinghistoryFollow us on Twitter: @CaptivHistory Learn more about your ad choices.
