It adopts a broad chronological perspective (from the twelfth to the fifteenth century) and examines different types of commentaries on ancient poetry and prose within the context of the study and teaching of grammar, rhetoric, philosophy and science. By discussing the exegetical literature of the Byzantines as embedded in the socio-cultural context of the Komnenian and Palaiologan periods, the book analyses the frameworks and networks of knowledge transfer, patronage and identity building that motivated the Byzantine engagement with the ancient intellectual and literary tradition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Baukje Van Den Berg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/21\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 396\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.82d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781009088053\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eVan Den Berg, Baukje:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Baukje van den Berg is Assistant Professor of Byzantine Studies at Central European University.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eManolova, Divna:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Divna Manolova is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Centre for Medieval Literature at the University of York and the University of Southern Denmark.\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMarciniak, Przemyslaw:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Przemyslaw Marciniak is Professor of Byzantine Literature at the University of Silesia in Katowice, Poland.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43927708467315,"sku":"9.78101E+12","price":59.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_be412b80-926d-4a89-a37f-04a3516e0ce4.jpg?v=1758370949","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/byzantine-commentaries-on-ancient-greek-texts-12th-15th-centuries-9781009088053","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
