The present volume has grown out of the conference held at
Princeton University on November 12-14, 2009. Its essays explore a
coherent, interrelated nexus of topics that illuminate our
understanding of the cultural transactions (social, political,
economic, religious and artistic) of the Greek East and Latin West:
unexpected cultural appropriations and forms of resistance,
continuity and change, the construction and hybridization of
traditions in a wide expanse of the eastern Mediterranean. Areas
that the volume addresses include the benefits and liabilities of
periodization, philosophical and political exchanges, monastic
syncretism between the Orthodox and Catholic faiths, issues of
romance composition, and economic currency and the currency of
fashion as East and West interact. Contributors are Roderick
Beaton, Peter Brown, Marina S. Brownlee, Giles Constable, Maria
Evangelatou, Dimitri Gondicas, Judith Herrin, Elizabeth Jeffreys,
Marc D. Lauxtermann, Stuart M. McManus, John Monfasani, Maria G.
Parani, Linda Safran, Teresa Shawcross and Alan M. Stahl.
