TY - SLIDE ID - 1575297 AU - Foletti, Ivan PY - 2019 TI - Why I do not Believe in Byzantium? KW - Byzantium KW - 18th-19th century KW - concept of Byzantium KW - Cold War KW - Medieval Mediterranean N2 - “Byzantium” is a notion which was applied to the Eastern Roman Empire during the 17th century. Later it became a concept crucial for describing cultural and artistic identities of the Orthodox world. However, does this modern notion correspond to a pre-modern reality? And what are the challenges produced by the use (and overuse) of a modern concept for the understanding of the past? Finally, is it not that Byzantium has progressively become a powerful virtual reality, where everybody can project his/her dreams and prejudices? ER -
