Progymnasmata, preliminary exercises in the study of declamation, were the cornerstone of elite education from Hellenistic through Byzantine times. Using material from Greek literary, mythological, and historical traditions, students and writers composed examples ranging from simple fables to complex arguments about fictional laws. In the Byzantine period, the spectrum of source material expanded to include the Bible and Christian hagiography and theology.This collection was written by Nikephoros Basilakes, imperial notary and teacher at the prestigious Patriarchal School in Constantinople during the twelfth century. In his texts, Basilakes made significant use of biblical themes, especially in character studies—known as ethopoeiae—featuring King David, the Virgin Mary, and Saint Peter. The Greek exercises presented here, translated into English for the first time, shed light on education under the Komnenian emperors and illuminate literary culture during one of the most important epochs in the long history of the Byzantine Empire.

In Mitwirkung mit der neuen Ausgabe in der Bibliotheca Teubneriana - der Progymnasmata von Severos von Alexandreia - befasst sich das Buch mit einem der interessantesten Rhetoren der spätantiken Literatur. Es handelt sich dabei um einen Parallelband zum BT-Text, in dem die erste Übersetzung in einer modernen Sprache des Corpus von Severus, eine Studie über die Biographie des Autors, eine vollständige und detaillierte Analyse der stilistischen, sprachlichen und rhetorischen Komponenten für jedes Progymnasma und schließlich einen philologischen Kommentar erfasst sind. Insbesondere hinsichtlich der noch nicht besprochenen Biographie von Severus wird zum allerersten Mal eine Identifizierung desselben mit dem bekannteren Severus, dem Patriarchen von Antiocheia, vorgeschlagen.
