Theo, you`re right but you are looking Julian from the point of view of the abstract concept called "the roman empire"and especially it`s continuation in mind. What for me is interesting in Julians character is an existential point of view; individual "thrown" in the world in a specific time in history (sorry for this vulgar "sartreism" :wink: ). That is what is special & interesting in Julian for me. I don`t look for types like this but those aspects stand out so clearly in Julians character in my opinion...
