The essays in Archaeology and History in Roman, Medieval and
Post-Medieval Greece honor the contributions of Timothy E. Gregory
to our understanding of Greece from the Roman period to modern
times. Evoking Gregory's diverse interests, the volume brings
together anthropologists, art historians, archaeologists,
historians, and philologists to address such contested topics as
the end of Antiquity, the so-called Byzantine Dark Ages, the
contours of the emerging Byzantine civilization, and identity in
post-Medieval Greece. These papers demonstrate the continued
vitality of both traditional and innovative approaches to the study
of material culture and emphasise that historical interpretation
should be the product of methodological self-awareness. In
particular, this volume shows how the study of the material culture
of post-Classical Greece over the last 30 years has made
significant contributions to both the larger archaeological and
historical discourse. The essays in this volume are organized under
three headings - Archaeology and Method, the Archaeology of
Identity, and the Changing Landscape - which highlight three main
focuses of Gregory's research. Each essay interlaces new analyses
with the contributions Gregory has made to our understanding of
Medieval and Post-Medieval Greece. Read together these essays not
only make a significant contribution to how we understand the
post-Classical Greek world, but also to how we study the material
culture of the Mediterranean world more broadly.
