Timothy E. Gregory - A History of Byzantium (2005).jpg

This book is a concise narrative of Byzantine history from the time of Constantine the Great in ad 306 to the fall of Constantinople in 1453. The author presents Byzantium as a vital society, important in its own right, but also one that served as a bridge between East and West, and ancient and modern society.

Osprey - Essential Histories 33 - John Halden - By zantium at War AD 600-1453 (2003).jpg

Byzantium survived for 800 years, yet its dominions and power fluctuated dramatically during that time. In this book, John Haldon tells the full story of the Byzantine Empire--from the days when it was barely clinging to survival, to the age when its fabulous wealth attracted Viking mercenaries and Asian nomad warriors, to its armies whose very appearance on the battlefield was enough to bring enemies to terms. In 1453, the last emperor of Byzantium, Constantine XII, died fighting on the ramparts, bringing to a romantic end the glorious history of this legendary empire.

Warren Treadgold - A History of the Byzantine Stat e and Society (1997).jpg

This is the first comprehensive and up-to-date history of Byzantium to appear in almost sixty years, and the first ever to cover both the Byzantine state and Byzantine society. It begins in a.d. 285, when the emperor Diocletian separated what became Byzantium from the western Roman Empire, and ends in 1461, when the last Byzantine outposts fell to the Ottoman Turks.
Spanning twelve centuries and three continents, the Byzantine Empire linked the ancient and modern worlds, shaping and transmitting Greek, Roman, and Christian traditions—including the Greek classics, Roman law, and Christian theology—that remain vigorous today, not only in Eastern Europe and the Middle East but throughout Western civilization. Though in its politics Byzantium often resembled a third-world dictatorship, it has never yet been matched in maintaining a single state for so long, over a wide area inhabited by heterogeneous peoples.
Drawing on a wealth of original sources and modern works, the author treats political and social developments as a single vivid story, told partly in detailed narrative and partly in essays that clarify long-term changes. He avoids stereotypes and rejects such old and new historical orthodoxies as the persistent weakness of the Byzantine economy and the pervasive importance of holy men in Late Antiquity.
Without neglecting underlying social, cultural, and economic trends, the author shows the often crucial impact of nearly a hundred Byzantine emperors and emes. What the emperor or em did, or did not do, could rapidly confront ordinary Byzantines with economic ruin, new religious doctrines, or conquest by a foreign power. Much attention is paid to the complex life of the court and bureaucracy that has given us the adjective "byzantine." The major personalities include such famous names as Constantine, Justinian, Theodora, and Heraclius, along with lesser-known figures like Constans II, Irene, Basil II the Bulgar-Slayer, and Michael VIII Palaeologus.
Byzantine civilization emerges as durable, creative, and realistic, overcoming repeated setbacks to remain prosperous almost to the end. With 221 illustrations and 18 maps that complement the text, A History of the Byzantine State and Society should long remain the standard history of Byzantium not just for students and scholars but for all readers.

Peter Sarris - Economy and Society in the Age of J ustinian (2006).jpg

The reign of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian (527-65) stands out in late Roman and medieval history. Justinian reconquered far-flung territories from the barbarians, overhauled the Empire's administrative framework and codified for posterity the inherited tradition of Roman law. This work represents the first modern study in English of the social and economic history of the Eastern Roman Empire in the reign of the Emperor Justinian. Drawing upon papyrological, numismatic, legal, literary and archaeological evidence, the study seeks to reconstruct the emergent nature of relations between landowners and peasants, and aristocrats and emperors in the late antique Eastern Empire. It provides a social and economic context in which to situate the Emperor Justinian's mid-sixth-century reform programme, and questions the implications of the Eastern Empire's pattern of social and economic development under Justinian for its subsequent, post-Justinianic history.

John Meyendorff - Byzantine Theology, Historical T rends and Doctrinal Themes (1987).jpg

For over a thousand years, Eastern Christendom had as its center the second capital of the Roman Empire - Constantinople, the "New Rome", or Byzantium. The geographical division between the Eastern and Western Churches was only one manifestation of deeper rifts, characterized by a long history of conflicts, suspicions, and misunderstandings. Although the art, monasticism, and spirituality of Byzantium have come to be recognized as inspirational and influential in the shaping of Eastern European civilization, and of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance as well, the West has been in the main ignorant of the historical evolution and the doctrinal significance of Byzantine theology. Here, for the first time in English, is a synthesis of Byzantine Christian thought. The reader is guided through its complexities to an understanding of Byzantium; its view of man and his destiny of "deification"; its ability to transcend the "Western captivity"; and its survival under diverse historical circumstances.

Samuel Lieu - From Constantine to Julian, A Source History (1995).jpg

From Constantine to Julian covers an age of major transition in Europe, which saw the establishment of Rome as a Christian Empire and a period of recidivism under Julian.
Texts included are the anonymous lives of Constantine, relevant sections of Aurelius Victor and "Eumenius, Libanius" Oration 59, the Passion of Artemius and a selection of papyri and inscriptions. Most of this material has not been previously translated into English: The reign of Constantine, the first Christian Emperor, is both a major turning point in world history and a source of controversy. The adoption of Christianity as the religion of the Roman State gave a major stimulus to Christian writings. The work of Christian propagandists, such as Lactantius and Eusebius, has long been relied on for information. The fact that writing in the pagan tradition continued to thrive has often been ignored. From Constantine to Julian redresses the balance, providing translations of key pagan historical writings and panegyric as well as Byzantine hagiographies. It includes the Origo Constantini, an anonymous life of Constantine, Libanius’ Oratio LIX, and the Artemii passio. Each text is accompanied by an introduction and a detailed commentary. This sourcebook illuminates the history of Constantine’s reign. It explores the Constaninian process of myth-making and shows how the pagan sources help balance the biased Christian accounts. This book is essential reading for undergraduates and research scholars.

Harry Turtledove - The Chronicle of Theophanes, An ni mundi 6095-6305 (A.D. 602-813) (1982).jpg

The most important illuminating source that survived from the two centuries termed "the dark ages of Byzantium" is the chronicle of the monk Theophanes (d. 817 or 818). In it Theophanes paints a vivid picture of the Empire's struggle in the seventh and eighth centuries both to withstand foreign invasions and to quell internal religious conflicts. Theophanes's carefully developed chronological scheme was mined extensively by later Byzantine and Western record keepers; his chronicle was used as a source of information as well as a stylistic model. It is for us the framework upon which all Byzantine chronology for this period must be based.

Jonathan Shepard - The Cambridge History of the By zantine Empire c.500-1492 (2009).jpg

Byzantium lasted a thousand years, ruled to the end by self-styled 'emperors of the Romans'. It underwent kaleidoscopic territorial and structural changes, yet recovered repeatedly from disaster: even after the near-impregnable Constantinople fell in 1204, variant forms of the empire reconstituted themselves. The Cambridge History of the Byzantine Empire tells the story, tracing political and military events, religious controversies and economic change. It offers clear, authoritative chapters on the main events and periods, with more detailed chapters on particular outlying regions, neighbouring powers or aspects of Byzantium. With aids such as a glossary, an alternative place-name table and references to English translations of sources, it will be valuable as an introduction. However, it also offers stimulating new approaches and important new findings, making it essential reading for postgraduates and for specialists.

Michael Grant - From Rome to Byzantium, The Fifth Century AD (1998).jpg

The Byzantine Empire, founded by Constantine as the core of power in the East, began to flourish in the fifth century AD, yet its culture and history are still not as well-known as that of the Western and Roman Empire. In From Rome to Byzantium Michael Grant provides a fresh insight into the nature of the Byzantine Empire in the fifth century, and the history of invasion prior to the genesis of the Empire.

In this lavishly illustrated book, Grant examines a comparatively unexplored area and constructs the history of an empire which rivals the former richness and diversity of ancient Rome.

Leslie Brubaker - Vision and Meaning in Ninth-Cent ury Byzantium, Image as Exegesis in the Homilies o f Gregory of Nazianzus (2008).jpg

Byzantium - Leslie Brubaker - Vision and Meaning in Ninth-Century ...xegesis in the Homilies of Gregory of Nazianzus 2008.jpg

This book centers on the copy of the Homilies of Gregory of Nazianzus produced in Constantinople around 880 for the emperor Basil I as a gift from the patriarch Photios. The manuscript includes forty-six full page miniatures, most of which do not directly illustrate the text they accompany, but instead provide a visual commentary. Vision and Meaning in Ninth-Century Byzantium deals with how such communication worked, and examines the types of messages that pictures could convey in ninth-century Byzantium.
Editorial Reviews Review
"...this first-rate study has far-reaching implications for anyone interested in religious language of images." Georgia Frank, Religious Studies Review "Brubaker (Univ. of Birmingham, UK) has produced by far the most penetrating study of this key work." Choice "Leslie Brubaker has written an important and illuminating book that will be required reading by all students of Byzantine art and culture. It will also be valuable for students of medieval manuscripts in general, who are interested in the ways that paintings in books can be used to construct meanings independent of their accompanying texts." Henry Maguire, Slavic Review "No other book in the field of Byzantine art history has been as long and eagerly awaited as Leslie Brubaker's study of the Paris Gregory. She provides the perfect answer to the sometimes unfortunate trend of quickly publishing one's dissertation, the sine qua non of academic advancement. Nuanced, sophisticated, compelling, the book which resulted in this case makes dispatch in publishing the labours of a graduate career unseemly. Brubaker has provided a necessary study for any art historian concernec with the relationship between image and text in a work of art, and, especially for those freshly vindicated partisans, with the ascendancy of the visual over the textual. This book should not be distant from the desk of any medieval art historian; for this reviewer, it will be a touchstone." Word & Image "...Vision and Meaning in Ninth-Century Byzantium will be essential for any library serving Byzantine, medieval, or art-historical studies." The Catholic Historical Review

Angeliki E. Laiou, Dieter Simon - Law and Society in Byzantium, Ninth-Twelfth Centuries (1994).jpg

The essays in this volume investigate themes related to the place of law in Byzantine ideology and society. Although the Byzantines had a formal legal system, deriving from Justinian's codification, this does not solve the problem but rather poses important questions. Was this a society which was meant to be governed by law? For answers, one must look at the intent of the legislators (to address specific problems, or to order society according to an ideal pattern?); the attitudes toward the law; the relationship between law, religion, literature, and art. What were the spheres--political, economic, private--that the laws and the lawgivers sought to regulate? The concepts of law and justice are quite different from each other, and the relationship between them is investigated here. Of importance also, in this medieval society, are the connections between law and religion. There is the problem of the provenance of the law--whether the Emperor or God himself is the source of law--and the broad implications of the answer. At another level, ecclesiastical law was very important for everyday life, and the question arises of how much knowledge people had of it and how profound was their knowledge. Both people's perceptions and their practices were shaped by their views of human justice and divine justice: whether these coincided, and whether they were administered through the same means, for the intervention of saints or icons might be seen as an alternative to human justice. As for human justice, there are questions that involve both society's view of it and the education, knowledge, and interests of those who administered it. Such issues are present in all medieval societies; the case of Byzantium is of particular interest because of the interplay between formal law and the conceptualizations and practices--some quite divergent from the ostensible purpose of legislation--which affected the legislators, the practitioners, and all of society.

John Julius Norwich - A Short History of Byzantium (1998).jpg

"Norwich is always on the lookout for the small but revealing details. . . . All of this he recounts in a style that consistently entertains."
--The New York Times Book Review. In this magisterial adaptation of his epic three-volume history of Byzantium, John Julius Norwich chronicles the world's longest-lived Christian empire. Beginning with Constantine the Great, who in a.d. 330 made Christianity the religion of his realm and then transferred its capital to the city that would bear his name, Norwich follows the course of eleven centuries of Byzantine statecraft and warfare, politics and theology, manners and art. In the pages of A Short History of Byzantium we encounter mystics and philosophers, eunuchs and barbarians, and rulers of fantastic erudition, piety, and degeneracy. We enter the life of an empire that could create some of the world's most transcendent religious art and then destroy it in the convulsions of fanaticism. Stylishly written and overflowing with drama, pathos, and wit, here is a matchless account of a lost civilization and its magnificent cultural legacy.

Evelyne Patlagean, Un Moyen Age grec, Byzance, 9e- 15e siecle (2007).jpg

Disparue corps et biens au milieu du XVe siècle, Byzance occupe dans l'historiographie une place paradoxale. Face à la lente construction des sociétés occidentales et du monde turco-musulman, elle apparaît comme une Antiquité continuée à laquelle la chute de Constantinople en 1453 mit fin. Elle doit en bonne partie ce statut atypique à la conviction des historiens de la période médiévale que la " féodalité " qui caractérisa l'Occident fut l'exclusivité d'une " Europe fille des invasions ". Remontant à la source de cette interprétation, Évelyne Patlagean propose un réexamen de l'histoire byzantine des IXe - XVe siècles à la lumière du livre fondateur de Marc Bloch La Société féodale. L'entourage impérial, le milieu aristocratique, l'appareil d'Etat sont ainsi analysés du point de vue des liens familiaux et sociaux, des engagements de fidélité et de l'organisation des pouvoirs. La société byzantine apparaît alors sous un jour nouveau, comme une composante à part entière du monde médiéval. Le " Moyen Age grec " révélé par ce livre redonne sa place à Byzance dans la lente gestation des structures sociales et des pouvoirs issus de la société antique et fait sortir l'Empire d'Orient de l'obscurité où la cantonnent trop souvent encore les historiens du monde occidental.

Corpus fontium historiae Byzantinae 28 - Constanti ne Porphyrogenitus, Three treatises on imperial mi litary expeditions (1990).jpg

Byzantium - Corpus fontium historiae Byzantinae 28 - Constantine P... Three treatises on imperial military expeditions 1990.jpg

Haldon’s translation and commentary of three tenth-century texts on military organization, preserved as an introduction to the de caerimoniis of Constantine Porphyrogenitus, have much of relevance and interest to students of strategic and logistical issues in the Roman imperial period. Text 1 is a very brief statement of the mustering procedures for a campaign into Asia Minor; text 2 (B), plausibly attributed to the general Leo Katakylas from the early tenth century, presents various practices attributed to Constantine the Great and Julius Caesar; text 3 (C) was compiled by Constantine Porphyrogenitus himself for training his son Romanus, and the first part constitutes an expanded version of B. The focus of all three texts is contemporary campaigning on the eastern frontier, but there is also material of direct interest to late Roman historians in the account of Justinian’s triumph in 559 (C.707–33), as well as of generic triumphal arrangements (C.667–706).
