Abstract
ABSTRACT This article investigates the role of panegyric in both shaping and responding to the shifting discourse on dynasticism in the mid-fourth century. It charts how a genre that was inherently focused on the present was forced to take a more capacious view of family connections, and how it adapted to the expansion and contraction of hereditary and collegiate models of legitimacy from the Tetrarchy to the end of the House of Constantine. It draws on speeches composed in both the East and West, and in Greek and Latin.
