Beskrivning
Originally published in 1957 and as a fourth edition in 1970 this is an accessible history of Byzantium from Constantine the Great to its final conquest by the Ottoman Turks in 1453. Despite internal dissensions and the almost perpetual threat of outside attack, Byzantium maintained a remarkable continuity in its cosmopolitan and cultural life: its religious, intellectual and artistic achievements were an inspiration both to the Slavonic peoples and to western Europe

Recensioner i media

Original Reviews of The Byzantine World: ‘A balanced historical account, in which every aspect of Byzantine culture is touched on…throughout one senses the author’s intimate acquaintance with the primary sources.’ The Times Literary Supplement ‘A work of admirable lucidity and compression…contains a wealth of experience out of proportion to its size.’ The Economist.
