Book Synopsis Change in Byzantine Culture in the Eleventh and Twelfth Centuries by : A. P. Kazhdan
Book excerpt: Byzantium, that dark sphere on the periphery of medieval Europe, is commonly regarded as the immutable residue of Rome's decline. In this highly original and provocative work, Alexander Kazhdan and Ann Wharton Epstein revise this traditional image by documenting the dynamic social changes that occurred during the eleventh and twelfth centuries.
