Book excerpt: THE race of Leo the Isaurian, which in no inglorious fashion had filled the whole of the eighth and ninth centuries with its iconoclastic struggles, social reforms, and palace intrigues, nominally died out in 867 in the person of a debauched and incapable young Emperor, Michael the Third, known as the Drunkard. The man who in consequence ascended the throne by means of a crime, and founded the Macedonian dynasty, was Basil I. To study the personal character and home policy of the sovereigns directly or indirectly descended from him down to 1057, is, in effect, to depict the leading aspects of the period, save for the ever-present struggle for existence against external foes.

Download or read book John Skylitzes A Synopsis of Byzantine History 811 1057 written by John Skylitzes and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-10-07 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was first published in 2010. John Skylitzes' extraordinary Middle Byzantine chronicle covers the reigns of the Byzantine emperors from the death of Nicephorus I in 811 to the deposition of Michael VI in 1057, and provides the only surviving continuous narrative of the late tenth and early eleventh centuries. A high official living in the late eleventh century, Skylitzes used a number of existing Greek histories (some of them no longer extant) to create a digest of the previous three centuries. It is without question the major historical source for the period and is cited constantly in modern scholarship. This edition features introductions by Jean-Claude Cheynet and Bernard Flusin, along with extensive notes. It will be an essential and exciting addition to the libraries of all historians of the Byzantine age.

Book excerpt: This thesis is an examination of change and continuity in imperial conceptions of the Roman-Byzantine identity between the years 867 -- 1025 CE. This period of the Byzantine Empire, a Roman relict state far outlasting the collapse of the Western Empire in 476, encompasses most of the Macedonian dynasty (867 -- 1056) and its associated renaissance. Under this dynasty, the Empire regained territories lost to the Muslim powers and successfully navigated religious and cultural recovery from Iconoclasm, a crippling theological dispute of the previous century. Despite the considerable geopolitical and cultural successes of the long-lasting Macedonian dynasty, extremely subtle but profoundly unsettling changes were occurring within the European heartlands of the Empire in Thrace, Macedonia, the Balkans, and Hellas. This thesis will address these changes. I argue that the conventional wisdom about the successes of the Macedonian dynasty has overlooked a gradual shift in the idea of what it meant to be a 'true' Roman in this period. Before the Macedonian dynasty, identification as 'Roman' had been restricted to those who were loyal to the imperial government in Constantinople, expressed adherence to imperial Chalcedonian Christianity, and fluently spoke koine, or common, Greek. Changes emerging in the 9th century, though, weakened the distinctiveness of the latter two of these markers, which became less effective at ascribing what imperial elites in Constantinople would consider the 'true Roman' identity, instead limiting this progressively more ethnic identification to the inhabitants of the capital. As a result, the question of "what is a Roman?" had begun to raise unsettling issues that the Macedonians could not satisfactorily address. This thesis concludes by providing an interpretation of the consequences that this ethnic sharpening had on later imperial history, thus relocating a generally recognized ethnic crisis associated with Comnenian and Palaeologan-era events to the earlier Macedonian renaissance.
