Die byantinische Literatur: Vom 6. Jahrhundert bis zum Fall Konstantinopels 1453

by Jan O. Rosenqvist

Jan Olof Rosenqvist presents a concise description of Byzantine literature for the first time intended for a broad audience. The most important authors and texts of the period are categorized not according to genre, but rather chronologically, each being described within its culture-historical context and accompanied by useful bibilographical references. The book also briefly discusses some general questions about this undeservedly little-known literature.
