Description:
With the same dazzling intelligence and narrative mastery he brought to his acclaimed three-volume history of Byzantium, John Julius Norwich produces a shorter, more accessible chronicle of the world's longest-lived Christian empire.
Expand description
Beginning with the founding of Constantinople in 330 A.D., Norwich guides readers across eleven centuries of monumental heroism and abysmal cruelty, theological passions, and political assassination, slaughter, imperial debauchery, and court intrigue. He introduces us to philosophers and mystics, eunuchs and barbarians, and to a society that could create transcendentally beautiful objects of worship only to destroy them in the convulsions of iconoclastic fervor. Overflowing with pathos and wit, A Short History of Byzantium is a matchless account of a lost civilization.
