One of most original figures of Byzantine intellectual history, Psellos was a polymath whose range extended from rhetoric and philosophy to law and medicine. While his history of his own times, the Chronographia , is one of the best known works of Byzantine literature, very little else of his large body of work has been translated. It is the intention of this volume to encourage a wider awareness of Psellos' many interests by offering readings of his original texts from a variety of scholarly perspectives. 410 0$aThe Medieval Mediterranean ;$v61. 606 $aIntellectual history 606 $aPhilosophy, Medieval 615 0$aIntellectual history. 615 0$aPhilosophy, Medieval. 676 $a189 702 $aBarber$b Charles 702 $aJenkins$b David 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784893503321 996 $aReading Michael Psellos$93688825 997 $aUNINA
