Late Antique Dalmatia and Pannonia in Cassiodorus' Variae

As the title suggests, the present paper offers an analysis of selected letters from Cassiodorus’ Variae, which are important for late antique history of Dalmatia and Pannonia. The study is intended to be twofold: on the one part, it examines the information that can be derived from the letters about both provinces’ political, administrative, economic, social and ethnic picture in the time of Ostrogothic rule over the Eastern Adriatic and Middle Danube regions ; on the other part, it explores literary and political contexts and underlying ideologies that are present in the selected letters.
