Description

Explore the evolution of one of the most significant cities in human history. This scholarly collection, published by Routledge, examines the transformation of Constantinople from its founding in 330 A.D. as a major urban center of the ancient world to its status as the greatest city of the European Middle Ages following the Fourth Crusade in 1204. This volume provides a detailed look at the factors that shaped the city. It examines how its role as an imperial capital, the growth of Christian institutions like churches and monasteries, and the urban disruptions seen in the eastern Roman Empire between the sixth and eighth centuries all played a part in its development. For students and historians of ancient civilization and Rome, these studies offer a deep look into the historical and topographical shifts of a city that bridged the gap between the ancient and medieval worlds.
