Book Secular Byzantine Women

  • Author : Sophia Germanidou
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2022-03-14
  • ISBN : 100053734X
  • Pages : 261 pages

Download or read book Secular Byzantine Women written by Sophia Germanidou and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-03-14 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secular Byzantine Women examines female material culture during the Late Roman, Byzantine, and Post-Byzantine eras, to better understand the lives of ordinary and humble women during this period. Although recent scholarship has contributed greatly to our knowledge of Byzantine and medieval women, such research has largely focused on female saints, imperial figures, and prominent women of local communities. But what about secular and non-privileged women? Bringing together scholars from various fields, including archaeology, history, theology, anthropology, and ethnography, this volume seeks to answer this important question. The chapters examine the everyday lives of lay women, including their working routines, their clothing, and precious possessions. This book will appeal to scholars and students of Byzantine history, art, and archaeology, as well as those interested in gender and material culture studies.

Book The Empress Theophano

Download or read book The Empress Theophano written by Adelbert Davids and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2002-08-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Byzantine princess Theophano, who came to the West in 972 to marry the Ottonian emperor Otto II, died as empress of the Ottonian Empire in Nijmegen in 991. In commemoration of this event a group of distinguished scholars met in 1991 at the castle of Hernen in the Netherlands with the aim of discussing various issues and aspects of Theophano's background in Byzantium, her life in the West, and her impact on society at the turn of the first millennium. This volume brings together in carefully edited form a group of the papers and proceedings from 1991. Each contribution helps to place Theophano in a broad cultural and historical context. The historical, intellectual and artistic background of her age are described, and there are essays on her education, her surroundings, and on the image of noble women in the middle ages.
