Imperial Women in Byzantium 1025-1204: Power, Patronage and Ideology: Women And Men In History

Autor Barbara Hill
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 aug 1999
This book will be essential reading for anyone studying Byzantine history in this period. It ranges in time from the death of the emperor Basil II in 1025 to the sacking of the city of Constantinople by the Fourth Crusaders in 1204, spanning the rise and fall of the successful Komnenos dynasty. Eleventh-century Byzantine history is unusual in that imperial women were able to wield immense power and in this ground-breaking book Dr Hill explores why this was possible and, equally, why they lost their position of influence a century later.

Descriere

 A consideration of the role of the imperial women of Byzantium in the period of the Crusades, Imperial Women in Byzantium 1025-1204 addresses the important question of why women were able to wield immense power during the 11th century, yet lost their position of influence a century later. Exploring key themes including kinship and the use of marriage alliances, patronage, and ideology, the author also offers a critique of current research on the power of women under the Komnenian system. This will be essential reading for anyone interested in the history of Byzantium.
