Reviews
Kaldellis's translations are a pleasure to read. The notes and introductions to the translations will surely be highly informative for readers without knowledge of Byzantine history... I appreciate how the book depicts the ancient and Byzantine approaches, demonstrating how each tradition can complement and -even if it sounds paradoxical - explain the other. Kaldellis's book stands as yet another success in making Byzantine intellectual culture more accessible. - Przemyslaw Marciniak, University of Silesia, Poland, in the Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2016 ... elegant... an original collection of texts from the middle and the late Byzantine era ... [this] anthology is an important and original one. - Irene-Sophia Kiapidou, University of Patras, Greece, BYZANTINA SYMMEIKTA 2018
