    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Short description:

    Die im Band versammelten Beiträge aus der Altertumswissenschaft und der Byzantinistik untersuchen die komplexen Wechselwirkungen zwischen antikem und byzantinischem Emotionsdiskurs. Die Einbeziehung unterschiedlichster Quellen und Phänomene, methodologische Reflexion sowie die vergleichende Gesamtanlage des Bandes zeichnen ein differenziertes Bild der byzantinischen Welt der Emotionen und deren Auswirkung auf die mittelalterliche und frühneuzeitliche Kultur. From a comparative perspective, international scholars explore the reception and influence of ancient emotion concepts in Byzantine sources. They also shed new light on the Byzantine emotional universe and its impact on medieval and early modern culture.

    Long description:

    Die im Band versammelten Beiträge aus der Altertumswissenschaft und der Byzantinistik untersuchen die komplexen Wechselwirkungen zwischen antikem und byzantinischem Emotionsdiskurs. Die Einbeziehung unterschiedlichster Quellen und Phänomene, methodologische Reflexion sowie die vergleichende Gesamtanlage des Bandes zeichnen ein differenziertes Bild der byzantinischen Welt der Emotionen und deren Auswirkung auf die mittelalterliche und frühneuzeitliche Kultur. This volume is the first to explore ancient and Byzantine Greek emotions from a comparative and synoptic perspective. A distinguished international cast of 17 authors deploys the methodologies of Classics, Byzantine Studies, and emotion history to uncover the complex interactions between ancient and Byzantine emotionology. Its wide-ranging chapters shed new light on the Byzantine emotional universe and its impact on medieval and early modern culture and explore the reception and influence of ancient emotion concepts in Byzantine sources. Textual sources are given due prominence, but the volume also investigates wider phenomena such as visual and material culture, performance, ritual, and the creation of emotional landscapes.
