A book which provides readers with a critical text of both the ecphrasis of the church of the Holy Apostles by Constantine of Rhodes and his satyrical poems was still needed. De Stefani and Strano offer a new edition of these texts, while correcting several corrupted passages. Particularly, the debts of Constantine with his avowed model in the description of the church of Holy Apostles, Paul the Silentiary, have been highlighted and the imitations of Constantine's poems by later Byzantine poets have been registered. In fact Constantine is the scribe (J) of Paul's poems in the famous Pal. Heid. gr. 23. De Stefani in his edition of Silentiary's text pointed out several imitations of Silentiary by Constantine. Further imitations of Silentiary's poem came out in course of the elaboration of this project and are recorded in the fontes. Constantine's poem is wordly "ed by Georgius Cedrenus. This new very important tool would help to better both the text we are editing and the "ations by Cedrenus listed in the fontes. Finally, the apparatus of the fontes will also mention the most patent imitations of the poem of Constantine by later Byzantine poets. The book will be a useful tool for all students of Byzantine literature.

The late Byzantine age, from the conquest of Constantinople by the Crusaders in 1204 to the fall of the last independent Greek territories to the Ottomans in 1461, was not only a period of political decline, but also of intensive cultural activity. The essays assembled in this volume discuss the works and lives of various authors (Nikephoros and Theodoros Xanthopoulos, Theodoros Metochites, Nikephoros Gregoras and Manuel Philes), they investigate issues such as ancient Greek and contemporary Western influences on the literary production, and discuss themes of material culture and, with a clear focus on Constantinople, of social, administrative and economical history.

As a tribute to their academic teacher and to further his interests, the students of Prof. Dr. Laurent Waelkens collected fifteen scholarly contributions on 'ius commune graeco-romanum', written by academics from eleven different countries, mainly but not exclusively from Eastern Europe. The book consists of three main parts. In the first part, four authors focus on the Graeco-Roman law in the Roman Empire itself. In the second part, five contributions concern the influence of Graeco-Roman law outside of the Byzantine Empire. The six contributions of the third and final part study the impact of the Western 'ius commune' tradition on Eastern European countries. Thus, the volume highlights the continued importance of the study of Roman law for the understanding of our common pan-European legal heritage.
