The eastern frontier of Byzantium and the interaction of the
peoples that lived along it are the themes of this book. With a
focus on the ninth to thirteenth centuries and dealing with both
art history and history, the essays provide reconsiderations of
Byzantine policy on its eastern borders, new interpretations and
new materials on Byzantine relations with the Georgians, Armenians
and Seljuqs, as well as studies on the writing of history among
these peoples. Presenting research from Russia and Georgia as well
as Europe and the USA, the contributors stress the interaction and
interdependence of all the peoples along this frontier zone, and
consider the different ways in which the political and cultural
power of Byzantium was appropriated. They provide important
comparative evidence for the relationship between local and
Byzantine cultures, and open up new avenues for research into the
history of eastern Anatolia and the Caucasus. The volume arises
from the thirty-third Spring Symposium of Byzantine Studies held at
the University of Warwick in March 1999.
