Klappentext
The Byzantine Empire is one of history's most underappreciated civilizations. As the direct continuation of the Roman Empire in the East, it survived for more than a thousand years after the fall of Rome, preserving classical learning, developing Christian theology, and maintaining a sophisticated urban culture while much of Western Europe was in decline. This book tells the story of how Byzantium rose, adapted, and eventually fell to the Ottoman Turks in 1453.
From the founding of Constantinople by Constantine the Great in 330 AD through the reign of Justinian, the great iconoclasm controversy, the Crusades, and the final siege of the city, the book provides a clear chronological account of Byzantine history and culture. It is written for general readers who want to understand why Byzantium matters and what it contributed to the modern world in theology, law, art, and statecraft.
Contents:
Reader review:"Finally a clear introduction to Byzantine history that doesn't assume prior knowledge. A remarkable civilization that deserves more attention." -- D. Komnenos
