Byzantium and Venice, 1204–1453 cover

Byzantium and Venice: 1204-1453, a selection of articles by the late Julian Chrysostomides, focuses on Byzantium after the Fourth Crusade and its relationship with Venice, particularly in the late Palaeologan period. Seven of the articles deal with aspects of Veneto-Byzantine interactions in the Peloponnese, while the remainder concentrate on the political and commercial ties between Byzantines and Venetians. The essays draw upon Julian Chrysostomides' unrivalled knowledge of the relevant Venetian documents.

'... this is a carefully presented volume, containing valuable research on a turbulent period of eastern Mediterranean history, and a fitting tribute to a dedicated teacher and scholar.' Anglo-Hellenic Review 'In the absence of comprehensive new studies on the Latin Levant in the later fourteenth century, Chrysostomides’ articles, with their extensive documentation, will continue to be points of reference for specialists in the field. Special mention should be made of number III... The study remains a classic...' English Historical Review '[Chrysostomides's] work has stood the test of time well, and its expertise will continue to be relied upon for the foreseeable future. The in-depth archival knowledge that was characteristic of it quite simply remains unsurpassed today ... [Heslop and Dendrinos] have done us a great service in uniting these studies in a single volume ... The book they have produced is handsome.' Journal of the Economic and Social History of the Orient
