As emperors both of Theodosius' sons proved to be inexperienced, capable of being dominated by ambitious subordinates.[4] In 394 Arcadius briefly exercised independent power with the help of his advisors in Constantinople, when his father Theodosius went west to fight Arbogastes and Eugenius.[5] Theodosius died in 17 January 395, and Arcadius, still aged only 17, fell under the influence of the praetorian prefect of the East, Rufinus. B. Bury spoke of a group in Arcadius's court with Germanic interests and, opposed to them, a Roman faction.[55] So when interpreting the revolt of Gainas and the massacre of the Goths in Constantinople in 400, the episode has been traditionally interpreted by scholars such as Otto Seeck as a violent anti-barbarian reaction that functioned to stabilize the East and prevent the rise of all powerful Romanised barbarian military leaders such as Stilicho in the West what has been termed the victory of anti-Germanism in the eastern empire.[56][57]	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-9666.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-9666.txt
