  • Broschiertes Buch

John Haldon's beautifully illustrated book tracks the checkered history of an oriental enigma, a 'lost empire' which stood for a 1,000 years against the might of Islam. He retells the story of the cycle of conquest and re-conquest of its lands by Goths, Arabs, Slavs, and Crusaders, and finally its complete destruction by the Ottoman Turks in 1453.
Not a comprehensive history of the Byzantine world, but one which focuses on particular themes and aspects of the social and cultural history of Byzantium, beginning with the transformation of the Roman world from c.300BC onwards to 1453 and the siege of Constantinople.
