About the book

Byzantium explores the civilisation of the Eastern Roman Empire, which survived for more than a thousand years after the fall of Rome in the West. The book examines emperors, religion, warfare, diplomacy, art and the magnificent city of Constantinople. It presents Byzantium as a sophisticated civilisation that preserved classical traditions while profoundly influencing medieval Europe and the Orthodox Christian world.
