Описание: The main thesis of this book is that the Greeks started their history as a multi-ethnic population group consisting of both Greek-speaking newcomers and the indigenous population of the land and that the body of `Hellenes` as known to us from the historic period, was a deliberate self-creation.
Описание: The conquest of Constantinople by the Fourth Crusade shattered irreversibly the political and cultural unity of the Byzantine world in the Greek peninsula, the Aegean and western Asia Minor. Between the disintegration of the Byzantine Empire after 1204 and the consolidation of Ottoman power in the fifteenth century, the area was a complex political, ethnic and religious mosaic, made up of Frankish lordships, Italian colonies, Turkish beyliks, as well as a number of states that professed to be the continuators of the Byzantine imperial tradition. This volume brings together western medievalists, Byzantinists and Ottomanists, combining recent research in the relevant fields in order to provide a holistic interpretation of this world of extreme fragmentation.
Eight stimulating papers explore various factors that defined contact and conflict between Orthodox Greeks, Catholic Latins and Muslim Turks, highlighting common themes that run through this period and evaluating the changes that occurred over time. Particular emphasis is given on the crusades and the way they affected interaction in the area. Although the impact of the crusades on Byzantine history leading up to 1204 has been extensively examined in the past, there has been little research on the way crusading was implemented in Greece and the Aegean after that point.
Far from being limited to crusading per se, however, the papers put it into its wider context and examine other aspects of contact, such as trade, interfaith relations, and geographical exploration.

Описание:
One of the treasures in the James Ford Bell collection at the University of Minnesota is Henricus Martellus Germanus' copy of Cristoforo Buondelmonti's Description of the Archipelago, the Cyclades, and the Other Islands.
The work was written in Latin in 1420, and Henricus's copy dates from c.1475. Cristoforo Buondelmonti's original book was an account of the Greek islands, illustrated with maps, beginning at Corfu, then going down the western coast of Greece and into the Aegean Sea. In his version Henricus added maps and text for five new islands. The manuscript is in magnificent shape -- the writing is a clear, legible humanistic script, and the maps that accompany each entry are in vivid color.
Buondelmonti (c.1385-c.1430), a priest and a member of a prominent Florentine family, had begun traveling in the Aegean in 1415, starting on the island of Crete. He had left home on a mission: to find Greek manuscripts for the humanist scholars in Florentine circles, among them Niccol Niccoli. He bought two manuscripts on Crete, but he also found himself captivated by the picturesque and historic islands of the Aegean world, and undertook a lengthy tour of Crete, first sailing around it, and then crossing it from east to west on horseback. He marveled and mourned at the ruins of antiquity, got briefly captured by bandits, and listened to bitter complaints against Venetian rule. He wrote up his adventures and observations and sent them to Niccol .
But this was not to be the end of his travels. Over the next dozen years, he traversed the Greek seas, going from island to island, writing up a descriptive text about each, and drawing a map. The first version of the manuscript was dedicated to the wealthy bibliophile, Cardinal Giordano Orsini, who was also interested in maps, and had an early copy of Ptolemy made for his library.
Evelyn Edson presents a facsimile edition of the entire manuscript, with introduction, complete transcription, English translation, notes, bibliography and index.
In cooperation with the James Ford Bell Collection, Italica Press presents this book in full color at 8.5 x 11 inches, nearly the full size of the Bell manuscript.

Описание: Despite the enormous literature on the crusades, the Frankish states in the Aegean (set up in the wake of the Fourth Crusade in 1204) have been seriously neglected by modern historians. Yet their history is both compelling in itself - these were the last crusader states to be set up in the eastern Mediterranean and among the last to fall to the Turks - and also valuable for the case study they offer in medieval colonialism. Peter Lock surveys the social, economic, religious and cultural aspects of the region within a broad political framework, and explores the clash of cultures between the Frankish interlopers and their Byzantine subjects. This is a major addition to crusading studies.
