Abstract

Asia Minor is considered to have been a fairly prosperous region in Late Antiquity. It was rarely disturbed by external invasions and remained largely untouched by the continuous Roman-Persian conflict until very late in the period, was apparently well connected to the flourishing Mediterranean economy and, as the region closest to Constantinople, is assumed to have played an important part in the provisioning of the imperial capital and the imperial armies.0When exactly this prosperity came to an end - the late sixth century, the early, middle or even later seventh century - remains a matter of debate. Likewise, the impact of factors such as the dust veil event of 536, the impact of the bubonic plague that made its first appearance in AD 541/542, the costs and consequences of Justinian's wars, the Persian attacks of the early seventh century and, eventually the Arab incursions of around the middle of the seventh century, remains controversial. The more general living conditions in both cities and countryside have long been neglected. The majority of the population, however, did not live in urban but in rural contexts. Yet the countryside only found its proper place in regional overviews in the last two decades, thanks to an increasing number of regional surveys in combination with a more refined pottery chronology. Our growing understanding of networks of villages and hamlets is very likely to influence the appreciation of the last decades of Late Antiquity drastically. Indeed, it would seem that the sixth century in particular is characterised not only by a ruralisation of cities, but also by the extension and flourishing of villages in Asia Minor, the Roman Near East and Egypt.

Abstract

Anatolia was home to a large number of polities in the medieval period. Given its location at the geographical and chronological juncture between Byzantines and the Ottomans, its story tends to be read through the Seljuk experience. This obscures the multiple experiences and spaces of Anatolia under the Byzantine empire, Turko-Muslim dynasties contemporary to the Seljuks, the Mongol Ilkhanids, and the various beyliks of eastern and western Anatolia. This book looks beyond political structures and towards a reconsideration of the interactions between the rural and the urban; an analysis of the relationships between architecture, culture and power; and an examination of the region's multiple geographies. In order to expand historiographical perspectives it draws on a wide variety of sources (architectural, artistic, documentary and literary), including texts composed in several languages (Arabic, Armenian, Byzantine Greek, Persian and Turkish). Original in its coverage of this period from the perspective of multiple polities, religions and languages, this volume is also the first to truly embrace the cultural complexity that was inherent in the reality of daily life in medieval Anatolia and surrounding regions.

Abstract

De l'Hellespont à Rhodes et à la Lycie, les cités antiques d'Asie Mineure Occidentale, grecques ou hellénisées, eurent un destin particulièrement brillant. Elles avaient en effet vocation à jouer un rôle d'intermédiaire entre un riche arrière-pays et l'horizon méditerranéen. L'une des périodes qui pour elles furent les plus fastes fut certainement le iie siècle a.C. Après la chute des monarchies issues de la conquête d'Alexandre, surtout du royaume séleucide vaincu à Magnésie par les légions romaines en 190 a.C., s'ouvrit pour la plupart de ces cités un véritable « Siècle d'Or ». Ce sont les temps forts, les rythmes et aussi les énigmes de cette période que ce séminaire s'est donné pour tâche d'éclairer. Liberté des cités à l'abri du « bouclier pergaménien », essor des échanges mais aussi poids croissant de Rome ont été les fils conducteurs d'une enquête que la publication de plusieurs nouvelles inscriptions est en outre venue enrichir et illustrer. The Greek and Hellenized cities of western Asia Minor, from the Hellespont round to Rhodes and Lycia, were highly successful. It was their fate to play the role of an intermediary between a rich hinterland and the wider Mediterranean. The second century B.C. was one of their most splendid periods. After the decline of the Hellenistic monarchies which succeeded Alexander of Macedon, and particularly after the defeat of the Seleucid kingdom by the Romans at the Battle of Magnesia in 189, most of these cities experienced a real golden age. The purpose of this seminar was to explain this period, its crucial events, its “rhythms”, and its historical paradoxes. The freedom of the cities protected by the “Pergamene shield”, together with the flourishing of trade and the growing pressure of Rome, are the central themes of the study. It is enriched and illustrated by the publication of several new inscriptions.

Abstract

In 1204 the army of the Fourth Crusade sacked the great city of Constantinople. In earlier historiography the view prevailed that these Western barons and knights temporarily destroyed the Byzantine state and replaced it with a series of feudal states of their own making. Through a comprehensive rereading of better and lesser-known sources this book offers an alternative perspective arguing that the Latin rulers did not abolish, but very consciously wanted to continue the Eastern Empire. In this, the new imperial dynasty coming from Flanders-Hainaut played a pivotal role. Despite religious and other differences many Byzantines sided with the new regime and administrative practices at the different governmental levels were to a larger or lesser degree maintained.

Abstract

Studies the key monuments built for the Rum Seljuq sultans, 1170-1220This lavishly illustrated volume presents the major surviving monuments of the early period of the Rum Seljuqs, the first major Muslim dynasty to rule Anatolia. A much-needed overview of the political history of the dynasty provides the context for the study of the built environment which follows. The book addresses the most significant monuments from across the region: a palace, a minaret and a hospital are studied in detail, along with an overview of the decorative portals attached to a wide array of different building types. The case studies are used to demonstrate the key themes and processes of architectural synthesis and development that were under way at the time, and how they reflect the broader society. Listen to author Richard McClary and Dr Alison Otha (Director of the Royal Asiatic Society) discuss the key monuments built for the Rum Seljuq sultansKey FeaturesPresents buildings never previously published in English: the Kilij Arslan II palace kiosk in Konya, the minaret of the Sivas Great Mosque, and the nearby ʿIzz al-Din Kay Kawus I hospital and tomb complexCovers the whole region, rather than the buildings of just one city or one rulerGives a clear and concise history of the period 1170-1220Includes c170 line drawings and photographs, many in colour"
