Topic: Byzantine Greek

	Greek
		Ancient Greek was spoken in Greece, on Crete and Cyprus, in parts of the eastern Mediterranean and western and northern Anatolia, on Sicily and in southern Italy, on the northern Black Sea coast, and sporadically along the African coast and the French Riviera.
		Byzantine Greek is notable mainly for its heterogeneity.
		The principal changes that distinguish modern Greek are superseding of pitch-accent by stress; further iotacism of vowels; transforming the voiced plosives b and d to the voiced fricatives v and dh; loss of modal particles; and less variable word order because of replacement of pitch-accent by stress.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: The Byzantine Empire
		The decline of the Byzantine Empire is strikingly exhibited in the depreciation of currency during the reigns of the Comneni.
		Byzantine civilization produced a succession of typical women of middle class who are a proof, first, of the high esteem in which women were held in social life and, secondly, of the sacredness of family life, which even now distinguishes the Greek people.
		Irene is honoured as a saint in the Greek Church because at the Seventh General Synod of Nicaea (787), she obtained important concessions in the matter of the veneration of images.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Byzantine Literature
		In Byzantine literature, therefore, four different cultural elements are to be reckoned with: the Greek, the Christian, the Roman, and the Oriental.
		The poetic temperament of the Byzantines is thus akin to that of the Alexandrian, not of the Attic, writers.
		A late Byzantine variety of the laudatory poem is the begging-poem, the poetical lament of hungry authors and the parasites of the court.

	ACM Presents DOUG SMITH: Lettered Byzantine Bronzes" (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Greek cities during the time of the Roman Empire produced a coinage combining Greek and Roman characteristics.
		Most common is the half follis with Greek numeral for 20 = K. Rare is the month that I do not receive an email asking about a coin with the large K on the reverse.
		Byzantine bronzes can be considered a bit crude and ugly but they are plentiful, low priced and well deserving of study by collectors.

	The Byzantines
		In the latter decades of the fifth century, the Byzantine Emperor declared himself to be a Monophysite—this estranged the Byzantines from the Roman Pope.
		The Latin church had battled emperors for control of the church and with the disintegration of centralized authority in Europe and the proliferation of European kingdoms, the primacy of the Pope in matters of faith was relatively solidified.
		The greatest of Byzantine writers, in fact, was the historian Anna Comnena, the daughter of the emperor Alexius.

	GREEK, Modern
		As in Ancient Greek, there is agreement in gender, number, and case within noun phrases between adjectives and head nouns, and definiteness is marked by the presence of an article as the first element in the noun phrase.
		The Ancient Greek positioning was valid throughout the Hellenistic period and on into Byzantine Greek, but in the Medieval period, the orientation of the weak pronouns toward the verb, as opposed to the clause, began to emerge, with the modern distribution developing after the 16th century.
		Increasingly in the Medieval period and on into Modern Greek relative clauses are marked with an invariant relative marker - in the modern language pu, homophonous with one of the indicative complementizers - with resumptive pronouns in the relative clause being fairly common.

	Byzantium: The Byzantine Studies Page
		The Greek political leadership, under the Palaiologan Dynasty regained Constantinople in 1261, but the "empire" was just one state among many in the area for the final 200 years of its existence.
		As a result Byzantine culture was subjected to centuries of abuse as a time of barbarism and superstition.
		The counterpart to the dismissal of Byzantine culture was its exaltation by 19th-century Romanticism, and by a substrate of Christian, especially Anglican, intellectuals.

	Greek Pronunciation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The pronuncation of Greek today is confused by many different sounds associated with the Greek alphabet.
		Whether this diaspora was the primary reason for the rekindling of interest in Greek classics, or whether it played a supporting role to other social factors is difficult to determine.
		So as broader Europe began to learn Greek (the prerequisite for truly learning the Greek classics) the pronunciation of the dispersed Byzantines was the natural choice.

	ENDING THE BYZANTINE GREEK SCHISM
		This volume treats of the fateful history of the schism of the Byzantine Greco-Slav Churches from the Chair of Peter and the dogmatic issues that have developed between the Catholic Church and the autocephalous Eastern Orthodox Churches.
		In this impressive "Apologia", one of the most remarkable documents of the Byzantine Middle Ages, Kydones criticized the racial pride of those opposed to union with Rome, and which he blamed for their inability to study impartially the evidence for Catholic teaching.
		His own studies (based on his translations of St. Thomas' writings into Greek) convinced him that the Latin Fathers agreed with the Greek Fathers in matters of faith, and that there were no valid grounds for maintaining their separation from the See of Peter.
