Summary

Radivoj Radić: The Byzantine World

History is not only made up of dates, battles, rulers, ideology and religion. In the shadow of those categories, the life that went on remains hidden, as well as the people who existed, people with their virtues and flaws, reduced to numbers and framed by the phrase "silent and absent majority". Such people were the basic substance from which the Byzantine world was created.

With the stories in this book, the author brings that world closer to everyone who wants to know it and takes readers on a fairy-tale journey into a dazzling and overflowing realm, at first glance enveloped in an aura of solemn stiffness and magnificent splendor. The book by the historian and Byzantologist Radivoj Radić tells about how life was in the Byzantine countryside and in the city, how holidays were celebrated, how the laity lived and how the clergy lived, what was eaten and what was drunk, what was the schooling and education like.

"Byzantium is the only state on 'this' side of the Great Wall of China that survived for so long, over eleven centuries, from ancient times to the dawn of the new era. Its ideologues believed that it had an indisputable right to universal rule over the entire Christian universe and that its emperor - as God's emissary on earth - stood proudly at the top of the imaginary pyramid of medieval rulers. It owes its longevity to the ability to change and adapt to repression, but at the same time it leaves an impression "considered immutability".
– R. Radić
