Abstract
The main aim of Festus's Breviarium is, on the one hand, to inform about the expansion of the Roman Empire and its conflicts with the Parthians and Persians, and on the other, to show that Rome remained successful in the East despite the numerous back sets of the time. In addition, its aim is to call for achieving new, more favourable freedom. These aims are highlighted also through stylistic means in the relevant parts of the breviary. The text of Propaganda for the Emperor Valens's campaign was addressed to a broad, both educated and naive, readership.
