Bücher von Averil Cameron

In this book the author contends-and this is not a very widely held view-that Byzantium deserves to be considered an influential part of the broader development of Europe, even though its borders also reached out to the vast territories of Anatolia and the Caucasus, and to the eastern Mediterranean.

In this new evaluation of Procopius, Professor Cameron emphasises the essential unity of the three works and, startin with the 'minor' ones, deomstrates their intimate connection with the Wars.
