Description

Byzantium Unbound by Anthony Kaldellis A provocative re-examination of one of history's most misunderstood civilizations, Byzantium is often seen as an outlier, yet this book proposes a new perspective that reveals its enduring significance. Kaldellis challenges the conventional view of Byzantium as a distinct entity, instead seeing it as a continuation of Greco-Roman society, forming a bridge between antiquity and the early modern period. This long view offers a fresh understanding of the ancient Greek, Roman, and Christian traditions as interconnected. Byzantium Unbound presents a thought-provoking vision of Byzantium unencumbered by artificial boundaries, allowing for a more nuanced appreciation of its contributions to human culture.
