Travel in the Byzantine World: Papers from the Thirty-Fourth Spring Symposium of Byzantine Studies, Birmingham, April 2000
ISBN: 9780754607885 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The contributions to this volume have been selected from the papers delivered at the 34th Spring Symposium of Byzantine Studies at Birmingham, in April 2000. Travellers to and in the Byzantine world have long been a subject of interest but travel and communications in the medieval period have more recently attracted scholarly attention.

George Akropolites: The History
ISBN: 9780199210671 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

History as Literature in Byzantium: Papers from the Fortieth Spring Symposium of Byzantine Studies, University of Birmingham, April 2007
ISBN: 9781409412069 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 350 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Although perceived since the sixteenth century as the most impressive literary achievement of Byzantine culture, historical writing nevertheless remains little studied as literature. Historical texts are still read first and foremost for nuggets of information, as main sources for the reconstruction of the events of Byzantine history. Whatever can be called literary in these works has been considered as external and detachable from the facts. The 'classical tradition' inherited by Byzantine writers, the features that Byzantine authors imitated and absorbed, are regarded as standing in the way...
