<p>Σε αυτό το επεισόδιο και με καλεσμένο τον Δρ. Ιωάννη Στουραΐτη, λέκτορα βυζαντινής ιστορίας στο Πανεπιστήμιο του Εδιμβούργου συζητάμε για το ζήτημα της ταυτότητας στο Βυζάντιο. Μέσα από την κουβέντα μας ανακαλύπτουμε πώς αυτή προσαρμόζεται ανάλογα με την αυτοκρατορική ιδεολογία, την παιδεία και την θρησκεία αλλά και ποιά είναι τα θεμελιώδη χαρακτηριστικά για να θεωρεί κάποιος τον εαυτό του Βυζαντινό, ή πιο σωστά Ρωμαίο πολίτη.</p> <p>Το προφίλ του Δρ Στουραΐτη στην ιστοσελίδα του Πανεπιστημίου του Εδιμβούργου: <a href="https://www.ed.ac.uk/history-classics-archaeology/about-us/staff-profiles/profile_academic.php?search=2&uun=istourai"><u>https://www.ed.ac.uk/history-classics-archaeology/about-us/staff-profiles/profile_academic.php?search=2&uun=istourai</u></a></p> <p>Το open access αρθρο του στο Academia.edu: <a href="https://www.academia.edu/40892811/Is_Byzantinism_an_Orientalism_Reflections_on_Byzantiums_constructed_identities_and_debated_ideologies_in_Y_Stouraitis_ed_Identities_and_Ideologies_in_the_Medieval_East_Roman_World_Edinburgh_Byzantine_studies_EUP_forthcoming_?from_navbar=true"><u>https://www.academia.edu/40892811/Is_Byzantinism_an_Orientalism_Reflections_on_Byzantiums_constructed_identities_and_debated_ideologies_in_Y_Stouraitis_ed_Identities_and_Ideologies_in_the_Medieval_East_Roman_World_Edinburgh_Byzantine_studies_EUP_forthcoming_?from_navbar=true</u></a></p> <p>Το blog του Δρ Στουραΐτη <a href="https://byzideo.blogspot.com/"><u>https://byzideo.blogspot.com/</u></a></p> <p><br /></p> <p>_______________</p> <p>Ποιοι είμαστε;</p> <p>Ο Γαβριήλ - Ιωάννης Μπουτζιόπουλος είναι υποψήφιος διδάκτορας της Βυζαντινής Ιστορίας στο University of Birmingham και ο Παναγιώτης Μέρμηγκας είναι μεταπτυχιακός φοιτητής Τοπικής Ιστορίας με ειδίκευση στη Βυζαντινή περίοδο στο Δημοκρίτειο Πανεπιστήμιο Θράκης.

<p>The discovery of 21,000-23,000-year-old human footprints at White Sands National Park in New Mexico is one of the most exciting developments in the study of the deep past in recent years. But do these footprints hold up to real scrutiny? And if they’re real, how do they change our understanding of the first people in the Americas? </p><p>I asked two experts on the earliest inhabitants of the Americas what they thought of this incredible new evidence: Dr. Jessi Halligan, Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Florida State University, and Dr. Shane Miller, Associate Professor of Anthropology at Mississippi State University. Both have extensive experience on the topic, and help us understand precisely what these footprints tell us about the human past in North and South America.</p><p>Patrick's book is now available!

A conversation with Mirela Ivanova (University of Sheffield) on the creation of the Slavonic alphabet and the lives of its creators, the Byzantine missionaries Constantine-Cyril and Methodios. Despite the huge importance attributed to these men and their activities in modern scholarship, national narratives, and Slavic Orthodox identity, our knowledge about them rests largely on two texts whose interests are quite different from our own. What do we really know about them? The conversation is based on two of Mirela's articles, 'Re-thinking the Life of Constantine-Cyril the Philosopher,' Slavonic and East European Review 98 (2020) 434-463; and 'Inventing and Ethnicising Slavonic in the Long Ninth Century,' forthcoming in the Journal of Medieval History (2021).
<p>The Middle Kingdom, beginning around 2000 BC, was the second of ancient Egypt’s classical ages. Powerful pharaohs ruled from the cataracts of the Nile to the Mediterranean, building enormous monuments and patronizing exceptional art and literature. But on either side of the Middle Kingdom lay two ages of chaos, the Intermediate Periods, when the pharaoh’s rule - the defining feature of ancient Egyptian history - essentially disappeared.</p><p>Patrick's book is now available!

<p>Today we talk to the man whose research has guided our last few podcasts Dr Maximilian Lau.</p><br /><p>Dr Lau is Adjunct Professor of Economic History at Hitotsubashi University in Tokyo, and also a Research Associate in History at St Benet’s Hall, University of Oxford. He has been studying 12th century Byzantine history for many years now and the fruits of that labour can be found in his forthcoming book “Rebuilding New Rome. The Foreign Policy of John II Komnenos.”</p><br /><p>The book is written and will be out next year and Dr Lau very generously shared it with me in advance. It’s been incredibly helpful in part because of its quality but also because it follows a format similar to our narrative episodes. It is a chronological account of John’s military and political activity with a discussion of the sources as each incident unfolds. As Dr Lau explains in the interview – John’s reign often gets short shrift in popular Byzantine books because our Roman sources cover him fairly briefly. But there are plenty of other sources to work with and Dr Lau has synthesised them to create a new history of John's reign.</p><br /><p>Period: 1118-1143</p><hr /><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> Hosted on Acast.

Despite the failure of Agis IV to reform a weakened Sparta, a more politically astute (and ruthless) successor could be found in the rival Agiad house, Cleomenes III. Under his reign, Sparta would be restored to a level of power capable enough to bring the Achaean League to its knees during the Cleomenean War (228-222). In a moment of crisis, Aratus of Sicyon would follow the maxim of "the enemy of my enemy is my friend", and turn to a most hatred rival: Macedonia, led by the standing regent Antigonus III Doson.

<p>Located to the south of Egypt, in today’s Sudan, ancient Nubia had a complicated relationship with the old state of the Nile, and scholars have traditionally understood it through the shadow of its much better understood northern neighbor. But, as Dr. Geoff Emberling of the University of Michigan explains, Nubia had a long and fascinating history of its own and a stunning array of achievements, spanning thousands of years and many different cultures.</p><p> </p><p>If you’d like to learn more about Dr. Emberling’s excavations at Jebel Barkal, <a href="https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/jbap/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">you can do so here</a>; if you’d like to learn more about community archaeology in Sudan, <a href="https://sites.lsa.umich.edu/nubia/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">check out the “Narrating Nubia” project here.</a></p><p> </p><p>Patrick's book is now available!

<p>Last time we watched as John Komnenos attempted to untangle the Gordian knot which Anatolia had become. After campaigning against the Danishmends – John moved on to Cilicia and Antioch. The Emperor attempted to enforce his rights without angering the Latins. A trick which he failed to pull off. </p><br /><p>Today John will be forced to go through the whole process all over again. But when he reaches the gates of Antioch this time he won’t take no for an answer.</p><br /><p>Period: 1138-1143</p><hr /><p style="color: grey; font-size: 0.75em;"> Hosted on Acast.
