Julian the Apostate is remembered as the Roman emperor who tried to bring paganism back to the center of the culture and politics of the Empire, in open opposition to the Christianity that was gaining power. Grandson of Constantine the Great, Julian was educated in a strongly Christian climate, but his beliefs led him to revalue classical religious traditions, which he saw as a source of cultural and spiritual cohesion. During his short reign (361-363 AD), Julian attempted to restore pagan cults and limit the influence of Christianity, earning him the title of “apostate”. Traditional history paints him as an idealist destined to fail, defeated by the unstoppable advance of the new religion. But who was Julian really? A misunderstood man, a cultural innovator or simply a nostalgic for a world in decline? If you liked the video, put Like, activate the bell and subscribe so you don't miss any videos! ❤️????
