Iconoclasm, the debate about the legitimacy of religious art that
began in Byzantium around 730 and continued for nearly 120 years,
has long held a firm grip on the historical imagination. Byzantium
in the Iconoclast Era is the first book in English to survey the
original sources crucial for a modern understanding of this most
elusive and fascinating period in medieval history. It is also the
first book in any language to cover both the written and the visual
evidence from this period, a combination of particular importance
to the iconoclasm debate. The authors, an art historian and a
historian who both specialise in the period, have worked together
to provide a comprehensive overview of the visual and the written
materials that together help clarify the complex issues of
iconoclasm in Byzantium.
