Die byzantinische Literatur ist außerhalb eines engen Kreises von Spezialisten bisher weitgehend unbekannt geblieben. Nur wenige Autoren wie Prokop, Michael Psellos oder Anna Komnene sind außerhalb dieses Kreises zumindest als Namen bekannt. So fehlt es auch bis heute an einer für ein größeres Publikum bestimmten Darstellung der Geschichte dieser Literatur. Diese Lücke schließt das vorliegende Buch mit einer nicht nach Gattungen geordneten, sondern chronologischen Darstellung. Die Auswahl der Autoren ist durch den literarischen Wert ihrer Texte bestimmt. Jedes Kapitel wird mit einem kulturhistorischen Überblick über die betreffende Epoche eingeleitet. Für weitere Information wird auf Textausgaben und Übersetzungen sowie auf wichtige Sekundärliteratur hingewiesen. Im letzten Kapitel werden allgemeine Fragen zur byzantinischen Literatur, zum byzantinischen Griechisch u.a.m. behandelt. Worterklärungen und ein Register schließen das Buch ab.

"Prometheus Bound is a play beloved of revolutionaries, romantics and rebels, with a fierce optimism tempered by an acute awareness of the compromises, dangers and obsessions of political action. This companion sets the play in its historical context, explores its challenge to authority, and traces its reception from the sixteenth to the twentieth century. Many scholars have disputed its Aeschylean authorship, but it has proved the most influential of tragedies outside academia. Marx's favourite tragedy, PrometheusBound is also a foundational text for the genre of science fiction through its influence on Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. In its open-eyed celebration of technology and democracy, it is the tragedy for the modern age."--Bloomsbury Publishing Prometheus Bound is a play beloved of revolutionaries, romantics and rebels, with a fierce optimism tempered by an acute awareness of the compromises, dangers and obsessions of political action.

Gegenstand des Buches sind die literarischen Gemeinplätze (Topoi) in der griechischen mittelalterlichen Heiligenliteratur. Thomas Pratsch bietet hier zum einen eine umfassende Materialsammlung, die eine vollständige Systematik der Topoi enthält. Daneben gelangt er zu neuen Ergebnissen hinsichtlich der Verwendung der Topoi und der Frage ihres historischen Wertes sowie der Entstehung, Überlieferung und Entwicklung griechischer Heiligenviten. Dabei zeichnet er unter anderem die schrittweise Entstehung einer Heiligenvita aus verschiedenen anderen literarischen Formen nach und untermauert aus einem neuen Blickwinkel die These der Kanonisierung der griechischen Heiligenliteratur gegen Ende des 10. und im Laufe des 11. Jahrhunderts. Ein Referenzwerk zur byzantinischen hagiographischen Literatur. This is the first systematic study of literary formulae (topoi) in Greek medieval lives of the saints. Thomas Pratsch compiles a comprehensive collection of material, including a systematic catalogue of the topoi. In his evaluation of them he provides new insights into the genesis, transmission and historical development of the genre of Greek saints' vitae. He traces the gradual development of the vitae from various other literary forms and, working from a new perspective, lends support to the thesis that a canon of Greek lives of the saints became established from the end of the 10th century and into the 11th century. This study is a valuable reference work on Byzantine hagiographic literature.
