Bizans İmparatorluğu Tarihi-Ciltli

Back Cover Text

The history of Byzantium inevitably means the history of the city called Constantinople. Because the history of this seemingly endless empire and Istanbul, one of the most important cities established in the world, can only be read intertwined.

Many dynasties and lineages, from the Constantine dynasty to the Komnenos, from the Justinian dynasty to the Macedonians, from the Syrians to the Phrygians, from the Armenians to the Palaiologos, had gone through thousands of intrigues and many games were played in order to sit on the throne of this city.

There is a fact that should not be forgotten: The Byzantine Empire, which is the most important face of Western civilization facing the east, was also the starting point of the Crusades, the most incredible wars experienced for the sake of religion throughout history.

Vasiliev, who managed to produce one of the most important works of its kind, presents us with the history of the connections, origins, and conflicts between Christianity and Islam, as well as the story of a magnificent empire.
