Byzantium in the Iconoclast Era (ca 680–850): The Sources
Author: Leslie Brubaker
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351953656
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 405
Book Description
Iconoclasm, the debate about the legitimacy of religious art that began in Byzantium around 730 and continued for nearly 120 years, has long held a firm grip on the historical imagination. Byzantium in the Iconoclast Era is the first book in English to survey the original sources crucial for a modern understanding of this most elusive and fascinating period in medieval history. It is also the first book in any language to cover both the written and the visual evidence from this period, a combination of particular importance to the iconoclasm debate. The authors, an art historian and a historian who both specialise in the period, have worked together to provide a comprehensive overview of the visual and the written materials that together help clarify the complex issues of iconoclasm in Byzantium.

Archaeology and History in Roman, Medieval and Post-Medieval Greece
Author: Linda Jones Hall
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351957554
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 372
Book Description
The essays in Archaeology and History in Roman, Medieval and Post-Medieval Greece honor the contributions of Timothy E. Gregory to our understanding of Greece from the Roman period to modern times. Evoking Gregory's diverse interests, the volume brings together anthropologists, art historians, archaeologists, historians, and philologists to address such contested topics as the end of Antiquity, the so-called Byzantine Dark Ages, the contours of the emerging Byzantine civilization, and identity in post-Medieval Greece. These papers demonstrate the continued vitality of both traditional and innovative approaches to the study of material culture and emphasise that historical interpretation should be the product of methodological self-awareness. In particular, this volume shows how the study of the material culture of post-Classical Greece over the last 30 years has made significant contributions to both the larger archaeological and historical discourse. The essays in this volume are organized under three headings - Archaeology and Method, the Archaeology of Identity, and the Changing Landscape - which highlight three main focuses of Gregory's research. Each essay interlaces new analyses with the contributions Gregory has made to our understanding of Medieval and Post-Medieval Greece. Read together these essays not only make a significant contribution to how we understand the post-Classical Greek world, but also to how we study the material culture of the Mediterranean world more broadly.

Cities, Fortresses, and Villages of Byzantine Asia Minor
Author: Clive Foss
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 382
Book Description
These essays deal with the history and archaeology of Byzantine Asia Minor from the 4th to the 14th century. They include regional surveys of the southwest (Lycia and Pamphylia) and discussions of specific sites and monuments elsewhere. These include many fortifications which have never been analysed or integrated into the archaeological or historical record of Byzantium. The work puts all kinds of surviving remains into the context of history, to show that the archaeological record is essential for recreating and understanding the nature and development of the Byzantine empire.
