Her work has been influential in demonstrating the strength and variety of Byzantine texts. Byzantium is renowned for its achievements in architecture and the visual arts. Professor Mullett's perceptive studies, produced over more than 40 years, have shown that the literature of the Byzantine Empire is of equal beauty and interest, ranging, as it does, from high-style poetry and rhetoric in the classical manner through letters to demotic writings such as fables and the lives of saints. The collection of essays in this volume draws further attention to the wealth and diversity of Byzantine texts, by exploring the Greek literature of Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages in all its variety. These studies, by going, like Professor Mullett herself, beyond the texts, illustrate the value of Byzantine literature for interpreting Byzantine history and civilisation in all its richness. This book is crucial reading for scholars and students of the Byzantine world, as well as for those interested in literary studies"--$cProvided by publisher. 410 0$aBirmingham Byzantine and Ottoman studies ;$vVolume 32. 606 $aByzantine literature$xHistory and criticism 607 $aByzantine Empire$xCivilization 607 $aByzantine Empire$xHistory 610 $aByzantine Literature, Literature, Byzantine History, History, Poetry, Greek Literature, Byzantine Culture, Late Antique Literature, Medieval Literature, Classical Literature, and Hagiography 615 0$aByzantine literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a880.9002 676 $a880.9 702 $aMullett$b Margaret 702 $aJames$b Liz 702 $aNicholson$b Oliver 702 $aScott$b Roger$f1938- 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910774792603321 996 $aAfter the text$93664758 997 $aUNINA
