This is, in part, a recasting and expansion of the old ‘Byzantium and its neighbours’ theme with, however, a methodological twist away from the resolutely political and toward the cultural and economic. A second thing that Global Byzantium – as a concept – explicitly endorses is comparative methodology. The book needs also to address three further issues: cultural capital, the importance of the local, and the empire’s strategic geographical location.
