Examining ideas, beliefs and practices of identification in the medieval East Roman world
.- Approaches ideology and identity in the Byzantine world from different perspectives, top-down, bottom-up, and outside-in, and from various disciplinary perspectives
including historical, literary, art-historical and archaeological
.- Explores what makes discourses ideological by giving them a central function in the promotion of power relations and interests on the macro-level of society as well as on the
micro-level of certain social groups
.- Explores the interrelation between dominant imperial ideology and collective identification
.- Scrutinizes various kinds of identification, local-regional, religious, gender, class, ethno-cultural and regnal-political
.- Contributors include Leslie Brubaker, Kostis Smyrlis, Alicia Simpson and Dionysios Sthathakopoulos
This collection offers new insights into ideology and identity in the Byzantine world. The range of international contributors explore the content and role of various ideological discourses in shaping the relationship between the imperial centre and the provinces. Crucially, they examine various kinds of collective identifications and visions of community in the broader Byzantine world within and beyond the political boundaries of the empire.
This interdisciplinary collection includes historical, literary, art-historical and archaeological as well as cross-cultural perspectives along with the exploration of ideas and identifications in cultures on the empire’s periphery.
