Product Description
This collection of commissioned essays aims to present an overview of some of the different tendencies manifested by modern Greek attitudes to Byzantium since the late 18th-century Enlightenment. The aim of the book is to show just how formative views of Byzantium have been for modern Greek life and letters: for historiography and imaginative literature and language, law, and the definition of a culture. All Greek has been translated, and the volume is aimed at Byzantinists and Neohellenists alike.
