Abstract

Inheritor of civil and religious strife, the emperor Andronikos II succeeded in cultivating a scholarly court culture while achieving little else in his long and tumultuous reign. Rather ironically for a ruler who faced military defeat on nigh every front, Andronikos II issued a series of torneses with a strong military iconography. Previously unpublished and unknown, this paper addresses the newly discovered tornese type as well as the reign of the ruling authority who issued them, emperor-monk Andronikos II.

Book
During the last two centuries of its existence the Byzantine Empire was politically in a state of utter decadence, but, in contrast, its intellectual life has never before shone so brilliantly. In these four lectures the author discusses the leading scholars of the period, their erudition, their intense individualism, their controversies and their achievements.
