Description

Explore the complex history of the Macedonian dynasty in this scholarly work from Routledge. The book examines how the Byzantine Empire navigated periods of extreme political instability, where 65 emperors were dethroned and only 39 reigns ended peacefully. Through the lens of Byzantine cultural history, this text investigates the transition from violent regicide to one of the most successful eras in the empire's history. By analyzing the assassination of Michael III by Basil I, the book addresses the central question of how a usurper could secure legitimacy and the loyalty of their subjects. It looks at how imperial art used by Basil and his descendants helped stabilize the dynasty after its bloody beginnings. This study offers a deep look into the relationship between political power and cultural representation in the Byzantine world.
