Angeliki Laiou (1941-2008), one of the leading Byzantinists of her
generation, broke new ground in the study of the social and
economic history of the Byzantine Empire. Byzantium and the Other:
Relations and Exchanges, the second of three volumes to be
published posthumously in the Variorum Collected Studies Series,
brings together fourteen articles published between 1982 and 2012
that reflect her enduring interest in Byzantium's political,
ideological, and commercial relations with its neighbours. The
first three articles examine Byzantine attitudes and institutional
responses to foreigners and strangers within the empire, while the
next four concern Byzantium's response to the Crusades and, more
generally, to questions of justice in the spheres of conflict and
colonisation. The final seven articles investigate Byzantium's
political and commercial relations with other regional and
Mediterranean powers; particular emphasis is placed on Venice and
Genoa, whose increasing involvement in the Byzantine economy so
marked the final centuries of the empire's existence.
