Summary/Abstract: Constantine the Great, like emperor Augustus, to whom he hardly tried to resemble (and look like), in the desire to give live to a fair, moral and just system, starting with the very example of the imperial family, had become the prisoner of his own laws. It was, nevertheless, his personal cross, that he undertook with pain and responsibility, but he carried it to the end, without compromise.
