Abstract


This paper focuses on the ἅπαξ λεγόμενα found in the laws of the Theodosian Code. Among them, this survey highlights the pomposity of the titles used to designate the officials, as well as the existence of certain terms originated in the Greek East and adopted by Latin, with not apparent purpose. The significance or such government language is to lay bare the rhetoric of the ornamental legislation throughout the Later Roman Empire.
