Description

Explore the reign of John II Komnenos (1118-1143) through this scholarly work from the Publications of the Centre for Hellenic Studies. While often overshadowed by his father Alexios I and his son Manuel I, John II was recognized by contemporary authors as an excellent emperor. This volume provides a fresh look at a period marked by significant territorial expansion in Asia Minor and the construction of a major monastic complex in twelfth-century Constantinople. This book moves beyond limited written evidence to offer new perspectives on his rule. It examines the developments of his reign and demonstrates how many innovations previously attributed to other leaders actually occurred during his time. For students of Byzantine history and scholars of the twelfth century, this text provides essential context for understanding the political and architectural landscape of the era. It is a necessary addition for anyone studying the Komnenian dynasty and the evolution of the Byzantine Empire.
