Alice-Mary Talbot has profoundly influenced Byzantine Studies in
America and Europe, focusing her scholarship upon the social
context of Byzantine religious practices. As Director of Byzantine
Studies at Dumbarton Oaks and as editor of Dumbarton Oaks Papers,
she touched the professional lives of senior and junior
Byzantinists alike. This collection of twenty-five articles from
scholars associated with her at various stages in her career
compasses such varied disciplines as art history, social history,
literature, epigraphy, numismatics and sigillography; contributions
are grouped in three related sections: "Women," "Icons and Images,"
and finally "Texts, Practices, Spaces." Illustrated with both b/w
and color images, the volume is at once a varied and a coherent
tribute to this extraordinary scholar. Contributors are Alexander
Alexakis, Simon Bendall, Annemarie Weyl Carr, John Duffy, Stephanos
Efthymiadis, Elizabeth A. Fisher, Jaroslav Folda, Sharon E. J.
Gerstel, Michael Grunbart, Susan Ashbrook Harvey, Angela
Constantinides Hero, Michel Kaplan, Paul Magdalino, Henry Maguire,
Maria Mavroudi, Stamatina McGrath, Cecile Morrisson, John Nesbitt,
Arietta Papaconstantinou, Stratis Papaioannou, Manolis Patedakis,
Brigitte Pitarakis, Claudia Rapp, Nancy Patterson Sevcenko, Brooke
Shilling, Paul Stephenson and Denis Sullivan.
