Book Synopsis Education and Learning in Byzantine Thessalonike by : Filippomaria Pontani
Download or read book Education and Learning in Byzantine Thessalonike written by Filippomaria Pontani and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-06-04 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Byzantine Thessaloniki has often been considered in its relationship with Constantinople, as a deuteragonist vis-à-vis the capital. However, from the 11th through the 15th century the symproteuousa has often played an important role in terms of the study, preservation and circulation of learning. The present volume collects 11 papers originating in a conference held at Thessaloniki's Kentro Istorias in May 2022. Some of them offer new elements and fresh discoveries on single erudites and their work, from Michael Mitylenaios to John Pediasimos, from Demetrios Triklinios to Thomas Magister, from Matthew Blastares to Manuel Boullotes. Hagiography, schedography, lexicography, philology on ancient Greek texts, and even canonical law, are among the genres practised by Thessalonian scholars over the centuries. Other papers offer thoughts on Eustathios' didactic aims, bird's-eye views of the city's intellectual milieux in the early Palaeologan era, or of the learned circles in Manuel II's entourage. The book acknowledges the "highs" and the "lows" in the cultural development of medieval Thessaloniki, and brings together essential elements towards an assessment of the city's role in the history of education and learning.

This book was released on 2024-10-07 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Niedersächsische Akademie in Göttingen hat 1990 im Rahmen des Akademienprogramms ein schon seit 1974 bestehendes Projekt zur Edition byzantinischer Rechtsquellen unter Leitung von Dieter Simon übernommen. Zu seinem Abschluss Ende 2021 fand in Sofia ein Kolloquium statt, das von der Niedersächsischen und der Bulgarischen Akademie der Wissenschaften ausgerichtet wurde, und dessen Akten hier vorliegen. Ziel der Beiträge war es, nicht nur Editionsmethoden, die im Verlaufe des Projekts durchgeführt wurden, zu demonstrieren, sondern auch das byzantinische zivile und kanonische Recht im Rahmen auswärtiger Rechtssysteme, insbesondere slavischer und muslimischer Länder, zu positionieren. Eine Darstellung finden zudem epigraphische Rechtsquellen, die Rolle der platonischen Gesetze in Byzanz und die Bedeutung des Rechts im Rahmen der Medizin. Die zwanzig Beiträge in deutscher, englischer und französischer Sprache betonen, neben speziellen Fachfragen, auch die Rolle des Rechts insgesamt als kulturgeschichtlicher Faktor in Byzanz, den Balkanstaaten, Osteuropa und der angrenzenden islamischen Welt im Mittelalter.
Book Synopsis Arabic Printing for the Christians in Ottoman Lands by : Ioana Feodorov
Download or read book Arabic Printing for the Christians in Ottoman Lands written by Ioana Feodorov and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-10-02 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arabic printing began in Eastern Europe and the Ottoman Levant through the association of the scholar and printer Antim the Iberian, later a metropolitan of Wallachia, and Athanasios III Dabbās, twice patriarch of Antioch, when the latter, as metropolitan of Aleppo, was sojourning in Bucharest. This partnership resulted in the first Greek and Arabic editions of the Book of the Divine Liturgies (Snagov, 1701) and the Horologion (Bucharest, 1702). With the tools and expertise that he acquired in Wallachia, Dabbās established in Aleppo in 1705 the first Arabic-type press in the Ottoman Empire. After the Church of Antioch divided into separate Greek Orthodox and Greek Catholic Patriarchates in 1724, a new press was opened for Arabic-speaking Greek Catholics by ʻAbdallāh Zāḫir in Ḫinšāra (Ḍūr al-Šuwayr), Lebanon. Likewise, in 1752-1753, a press active at the Church of Saint George in Beirut printed Orthodox books that preserved elements of the Aleppo editions and were reprinted for decades. This book tells the story of the first Arabic-type presses in the Ottoman Empire which provided church books to the Arabic-speaking Christians, irrespective of their confession, through the efforts of ecclesiastical leaders such as the patriarchs Silvester of Antioch and Sofronios II of Constantinople and financial support from East European rulers like prince Constantin Brâncoveanu and hetman Ivan Mazepa.

Book Synopsis Isaac Komnenos Porphyrogennetos by : Valeria Flavia Lovato
Download or read book Isaac Komnenos Porphyrogennetos written by Valeria Flavia Lovato and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelfth-century Byzantium is characterized by a striking artistic vitality and profound socio-political changes. The Constantinopolitan elites, led by the Komnenian dynasty initiated by Alexios I, were the driving force behind the renewed intellectual landscape and power dynamics of the century. Despite the wealth of studies devoted to the Komnenians, the sebastokrator Isaac (1093–after 1152) has received limited attention in modern scholarship. Yet, Isaac is a fascinating figure at the crossroads of different worlds. He was an intellectual, the author of the first running commentary on the Iliad ever written in Byzantium. He was a patron, sponsoring magnificent buildings and supporting artists in and outside the capital. He was a would-be usurper, attempting to seize the throne several times. He was a shrewd diplomat, forging alliances with Armenian, Turkish, and Latin rulers. Modern scholars have so far failed to see the interplay between Isaac’s multiple personae. Isaac the scholar is rarely brought into conversation with Isaac the usurper, Isaac the patron, or Isaac the world traveller. Bringing together experts from a range of disciplines, this book fills a significant gap in the literature. As the first comprehensive study of one of the protagonists of the Komnenian era, it is essential reading for students of the Byzantine Empire. In addition, the portrait of Isaac presented here provides scholars of pre-modern civilizations with a relevant case study. By exposing the permeability of the theoretical and geographical ‘borders’ we use to conceptualize the past, Isaac epitomizes the interconnectedness at the heart of the so-called Global Middle Ages.
