A conversation with Tina Sessa (The Ohio State University) and Marion Kruse (University of Cincinnati) on the process of peer-review in the humanities: what it's for, how it can be done well, and where it can go awry. The conversation is based on many decades of collective experience of peer-review, on all sides of the process.

<p>Hannibal accomplished a great deal during his long and illustrious life, but no feat has captured the imagination more than his crossing of the Alps.

<p>In this episode of Βυζάντιο explained, we speak with Dr Bart Janssens, Publishing Manager at Brepols Publishers, about what it means to get published as a Byzantinist. We explore Brepols' mission and structure, walk through the publishing process from proposal to final publication, and discuss the linguistic and thematic trends that shape academic publishing today. We also delve into the role of artificial intelligence, the prospects of digital humanities, and the growing importance of interdisciplinary research in Byzantine and medieval studies. Dr Janssens shares insights from his long career at Brepols and his journey from classical philology to publishing management.</p><p>Σε αυτό το επεισόδιο του Βυζάντιο explained, συνομιλούμε με τον Dr Bart Janssens, διευθυντή εκδόσεων του Brepols, για το πώς είναι να εκδίδεις έργα ως βυζαντινολόγος. Εξετάζουμε το εκδοτικό έργο και την αποστολή των Brepols, τις διαδικασίες που ακολουθούνται από την πρόταση έως τη δημοσίευση, καθώς και τις γλώσσες και τις θεματικές τάσεις που διαμορφώνουν σήμερα την επιστημονική εκδοτική παραγωγή. Συζητούμε επίσης τον ρόλο της τεχνητής νοημοσύνης, τις προοπτικές των ψηφιακών ανθρωπιστικών σπουδών, και τη σημασία της διαθεματικής έρευνας στα βυζαντινά και μεσαιωνικά γράμματα. Ο Dr Janssens μοιράζεται εμπειρίες από τη μακρόχρονη θητεία του στις Brepols, αλλά και την προσωπική του πορεία από τη φιλολογία στη διαχείριση εκδόσεων.🔗 Επισκεφθείτε τον ιστότοπο των Brepols: https://www.brepols.netΑνακαλύψτε τα Corpus Christianorum: https://www.corpuschristianorum.orgΜία νέα δημοσίευση από το Brepols: Byzantine Liturgical Books: An Introduction: https://www.brepols.net/products/IS-9782503607573-1🔗 Άκουσε το podcast μας εδώ: ⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/byzantioexplainedpodcast⁠⁠📧 Επικοινωνήστε μαζί μας: ⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠#Byzantioexplained #podcast #ByzantineStudies #Brepols #Byzantineempire #academicpublishing #DigitalHumanitiesΑκολουθήστε το Podcast μας 📸Instagram ► ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/byzantioexplained/⁠⁠✖️ X ► ⁠⁠https://x.com/ByzantioExpl_p⁠⁠🌐 Bluesky ► ⁠⁠https://bsky.app/profile/byzantioexplained.bsky.social⁠⁠📘 Facebook ► ⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/Byzantioexplained⁠⁠🎧 Spotify ► ⁠⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/3FtJ3ixEZiYBwuqyQ81mdg⁠⁠🍏 Apple Podcasts ► ⁠⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/gr/podcast/byzantio-explained/id1554787771⁠⁠▶️ YouTube ► ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCumFGMN8OHqCxrxRl-wTEQA<br /></p>

<p>The disastrous ending of the First Punic War could have destroyed Carthage for good, and it nearly did. But one man had a plan for how to bring Carthage back to prosperity and power: Hamilcar Barca, the father of Hannibal, who took an army to Iberia to build a new Carthaginian empire.</p><p>Patrick's book is now available!

What foods were prized and what looked down upon? How do we know what they ate? What do we know about individual preferences? The conversation is based on Adam's dissertation, Food and Food Culture in the Byzantine Empire, Seventh to Fifteenth Centuries (Queen's University, 2024).
