Description

Explore a new historical perspective on the reign of Emperor Theophilos of Byzantium (829-842) in this scholarly work from the Birmingham Byzantine and Ottoman Studies series. While modern historiography often portrays Theophilos as a righteous and learned ruler, this book challenges those legendary accounts. It provides a balanced assessment of his leadership, moving beyond the traditional view that his military struggles against Muslim forces were merely matters of bad luck. This study focuses on how Oriental politics impacted the reign of the last iconoclast emperor. By examining the events of this period, the book offers a deeper understanding of the Byzantine court and the frontier. It is an essential resource for students and researchers interested in the complexities of Byzantine history, the impact of religious conflict, and the geopolitical tensions of the ninth century.
