   Sep 7, 2009 · The Roman empress Eusebia, wife of the Christian emperor Constantius II (A.D. 337–361), owes what fame she enjoys amongst historians to her role in the life of Julian the Apostate, the last pagan emperor (361–363); in the years 354–355 the empress emerged as the saviour and advocate of her (still in the closet) pagan in-law.

   How did Eusebia die?

   Why did Constantius use Eusebia as a 'front woman'?

   • Modern historians Shaun Tougher and J. Juneau suggest that Eusebia's role may in fact have been part of Constantius's own strategy, using her as a "front woman" in negotiations with Julian, as the two men had a contentious relationship. Eusebia may have been able to help to build a valuable alliance where Constantius needed one.

   Does Ammianus expect readers to know more about Eusebia?

   • For contemporaries, answers to these questions might have been easier; Ammianus certainly seems to expect his readers to know more about Eusebia than he reports. It is very important to appreciate that there are things we do not and cannot know, but that absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

   This paper applies to late-antique imperial panegyric the maxim that a thoughtfully engaged outlier defines its field. Julian’s Speech of Thanks to Eusebia is the sole example preserved from antiquity of a prose address ostensibly celebrating a living empress.
