Tougher also notes a tendency to take this text "at face value" instead of receiving "deeper analysis". He offers an analysis on how the oration was influenced by first the praise of <a href="/wiki/Arete_(mythology)" title="Arete (mythology)">Arete</a> as found in the <a href="/wiki/Odyssey" title="Odyssey">Odyssey</a> by <a href="/wiki/Homer" title="Homer">Homer</a>, secondly the treatises on speeches of <a href="/wiki/Menander_of_Laodicea" class="mw-redirect" title="Menander of Laodicea">Menander of Laodicea</a>. Menander advised that the praise on an emperor's virtue should focus on four areas: his courage, justice, temperance and wisdom. Julian manages to praise the justice, temperance and wisdom of Eusebia. Notably missing is any reference to her courage. However, there are additional references to her mildness, clemency, philanthropy and liberality.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTETougher1998b105–113_36-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETougher1998b105–113-36"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>36<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Tougher notes that Julian reveals her influence on the decisions of Constantius, but constantly reminds his audience that the authority to decide on any given matter rests with the Emperor, not with the Empress. She persuades but does not command. The historian notes how Julian manages to stray from his titular subject and to offer readers a quite detailed portrait of himself, far more detailed than the one on Eusebia. His self-portrayal covers so much of the oration that in Tougher's words "the rhetorician is in danger of eclipsing his subject.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTETougher1998b116,_121_37-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETougher1998b116,_121-37"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>37<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>On the matter of portrayal two key elements are the benevolent portrayal of Eusebia and his "satisfaction" at being sent to Athens. Tougher invites the aspiring historian to be cautious on either one. He notes that the oration manages to incorporate both "implied and direct criticism" of the imperial couple. This is only the version of events presented by Julian. A version that might have managed to influence Ammianus Marcellinus and through him later historians. Julian has shaped the historical narrative and portrayal of much of his life. The luck of other perspectives questions its reliability.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTETougher1998b122–123_38-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTETougher1998b122–123-38"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>38<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>"Ammianus Marcellinus and the Representation of Historical Reality" (1998) by <a href="/wiki/Timothy_Barnes_(classicist)" title="Timothy Barnes (classicist)">Timothy Barnes</a> focuses on the elements shaping Ammianus' account. He notes that "Just as with the male characters in his history ... Ammianus reveals his personal likes and dislikes without inhibition when dealing with the wives of Emprerors". Barnes notes that his portrayal of Eusebia was mostly positive but his motives may be clearly identified. The historian clearly portrays Julian as a hero and his allies are cast in a favorable light by association. Further, Ammianus has only warm praise for Hypatius, pointing to the latter being his friend and a probable patron. Ammianus' settlement in Rome matches the period when Hypatius was its prefect, suggesting that the historian had either arrived in the city with his friend or followed him there at a later date. Eusebia was "protector of Julian" and sister of Hypatius, and as such would require positive treatment. <sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEBarnes1998120–123_39-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEBarnes1998120–123-39"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>39<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="References">References</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Eusebia_(empress)&amp;action=edit&amp;section=8" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1239543626">.mw-parser-output .reflist{margin-bottom:0.5em;list-style-type:decimal}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .reflist{font-size:90%}}.mw-parser-output .reflist .references{font-size:100%;margin-bottom:0;list-style-type:inherit}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-2{column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns-3{column-width:25em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns{margin-top:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns ol{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .reflist-columns li{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-alpha{list-style-type:upper-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-upper-roman{list-style-type:upper-roman}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-alpha{list-style-type:lower-alpha}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-greek{list-style-type:lower-greek}.mw-parser-output .reflist-lower-roman{list-style-type:lower-roman}</style><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap mw-references-columns"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-1"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-1">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Macedonia_(region)" class="extiw" title="q:Macedonia (region)">q:Macedonia (region)</a></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTETougher1998b112-2"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTETougher1998b112_2-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTETougher1998b112_2-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFTougher1998b">Tougher 1998b</a>, p.&#160;112.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris307–308-3"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris307–308_3-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFJonesMartindaleMorris">Jones, Martindale &amp; Morris</a>, pp.&#160;307–308.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-4"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-4">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://archive.org/details/workswithenglish01juliuoft">"The Works of the Emperor Julian", 1913 translation by Wilmer Cave Wright, vol. 1, page 295</a></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris300–301-5"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris300–301_5-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris300–301_5-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris300–301_5-2"><sup><i><b>c</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris300–301_5-3"><sup><i><b>d</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris300–301_5-4"><sup><i><b>e</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFJonesMartindaleMorris">Jones, Martindale &amp; Morris</a>, pp.&#160;300–301.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris308–309-6"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris308–309_6-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFJonesMartindaleMorris">Jones, Martindale &amp; Morris</a>, pp.&#160;308–309.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris448–449-7"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEJonesMartindaleMorris448–449_7-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFJonesMartindaleMorris">Jones, Martindale &amp; Morris</a>, pp.&#160;448–449.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-dimaio-8"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-dimaio_8-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">DiMaio, Michael Jr. "<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.roman-emperors.org/eusebia.htm">Eusebia Augusta (353–360 A.D.) and Faustina (360–361 A.D.)</a>." <i>De Imperatoribus Romanis:An Online Encyclopedia of Roman Emperors</i>.
