		Constantine's spiritual welfare meant nothing to the emperor and his admission to a monastery was designed only to prevent him from achieving his secret ambitions.
		When Constantine and the women had decided which apartments each was to occupy in the palace, the emperor had the room in the centre, with the sisters on either side of him, but it was Sclerena who had the most private apartment.
		Constantine was afraid that the defeat of the enemy might be the signal for another revolt: his own general might turn against himself, the very person who had put him in command, and a second pretender might well prove more dangerous than the first, with a considerable army already mobilized and fresh laurels of victory.

	The Byzantine background to the First Crusade, by Paul Magdalino
		Although the first Norman units in the regular armed forces seem to have been brought in by Constantine IX Monomachos to deal with an internal crisis in 1047,34 later recruits from Normandy were solicited specifically to fight the Turks.
		The issue that provoked Pope Leo IX to reprove and his legates to excommunicate the Patriarch Michael Keroularios, was the condemnation by certain influential Greek clerics of the use of unleavened bread (azyma/Azymes) in the Eucharist, and the reported closure of Latin churches in Constantinople that followed this practice.
		Given the favour in which they were held by the Doukas emperors, Constantine X and Michael VII, the fact that he does not hold this favour against either emperor means either that he considered the Amalfitans unimportant or that he did not want to criticise them.

		The present appeal by the martially clad Constantine to the help of Virgin Mary - protectress of the empire's capital, among other things - was possibly associated with a military revolt threatening the capital in 1049, though during this reign there were ample other junctures that may have waranted such a prayer.
