	Byzantine Empire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Eastern Roman Empire was largely spared the difficulties of the west in the 3rd and 4th centuries (see Crisis of the Third Century) in part because urban culture was better established there and the initial invasions were attracted to the wealth of Rome.
		The Hunnic Empire collapsed and Constantinople was free from the menace of Attila.
		To add to the empire's concerns, the Seljuks remained a threat, and a grand expedition to their capital at Konya led by the emperor Manuel, was ambushed at the Battle of Myriokephalon in 1176 and forced to withdraw due to the destruction of its siege equipment.

	Byzantium
		The Byzantine Empire made great contributions to civilization: Greek language and learning were preserved for posterity; the Roman imperial system was continued and Roman law codified; the Greek Orthodox church converted some Slavic peoples and fostered the development of a splendid new art dedicated to the glorification of the Christian religion.
		Book I deals with ecclesiastical law; the sources of the law; and the duties of higher officials.
		Byzantium lost the heart of its empire, and with it the reserves of soldiers, leaders, taxes, and food that had enabled it to survive for the past four centuries.

		By command of the supreme authorities of the empire, the governors of the several provinces had set on foot a general persecution of the godly.

	Medieval Sourcebook: Gibbon: The Fall of the Roman Empire
		Under the succeeding reigns, the alliance of the two empires was restored; but the aid of the Oriental Romans was tardy, doubtful, and ineffectual; and the national schism of the Greeks and Latins was enlarged by the perpetual difference of language and manners, of interest, and even of religion.
		If the decline of the Roman empire was hastened by the conversion of Constantine, his victorious religion broke the violence of the fall, and mollified the ferocious temper of the conquerors.
		The deepest wounds were inflicted on the empire during the minorities of the sons and grandsons of Theodosius; and, after those incapable princes seemed to attain the age of manhood, they abandoned the church to the bishops, the state to the eunuchs, and the provinces to the Barbarians.

	The Telegraph - Calcutta : Weekend (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Even if we restrict ourselves only to books which are direct competitors to the Potter empire (books in the same genre and aimed at the same core age group) we’ll find magical words that will ease your troubles.
		The book tells the story of Eragon, a young boy who finds a dragon’s egg, and with it, his destiny; he embarks on a thrilling quest through dangerous lands in a plot that’s composed of familiar elements, but written out with great enthusiasm and attention to detail.
		Books like The Illustrated Mum and The Suitcase Kid have won Wilson multiple children’s awards for her ability to deal wisely and warmly with the realities of daily life, far away from bearded wizards — yet Wilson’s books are borrowed from libraries more than any other author’s.

	Eragon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eragon is a novel written by Christopher Paolini and is the first book of the Inheritance trilogy.
		Eragon's sequel is Eldest, and there are rumours that the third book in its series is going to be called Empire, though there is no official name yet.
		The book's most frequent criticism is that it uses far too many clichés.

	Essays: First Series E-book by Ralph Waldo Emerson
		All literature writes the character of the wise man. All books, monuments, pictures, conversation, are portraits in which the wise man finds the lineaments he is forming.
		To him a palace, a statue, or a costly book have an alien and forbidding air, much like a gay equipage, and seem to say like that, "Who are you, sir?" Yet they all are his, suitors for his notice, petitioners to his faculties that they will come out and take possession.
		Especially he hates what he has, if he sees that it is accidental- came to him by inheritance, or gift, or crime; then he feels that it is not having; it does not belong to him, has no root in him, and merely lies there, because no revolution or no robber takes it away.

	Book reviews
		I do not think that in a book of this size it is possible to present enough of an understanding for readers to reach their own conclusions on adequate grounds about the health and safety aspects of caffeine, and in many instances the original sources must be scrutinized for the adequacy of the evidence.
		The story of the book's central theory of the brain's regulation of body weight begins with the 1840 observation of a woman who grew progressively fatter in the last year of her life and was found on autopsy to have a large pituitary tumor.
		The book presents the health effects of diet with a simplicity that does not seriously compromise scientific accuracy, and it treats the various Mediterranean cultures with respect, notwithstanding some unattractive dietary habits (Seneca is quoted as saying that Romans did not hesitate to induce vomiting in order to indulge again in the pleasure of eating).

	FRANCIA
		The "Empire" came to be regarded as consisting of four crowns: (1) East Francia, or Germany, (2) Lombardy (the "Iron Crown"), or Italy, (3) Rome, and, after 1032, (4) Burgundy.
		These books were originally recommended to me by Professor Norman Martin, for whom I was a teaching assistant at the University of Texas.
		As neat halves of Charlemange's empire eventually formed, France in the West and Germany in the East, the stage for the greatest battles of modern war in the 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries would be set along the seam, from Nieuwpoort (1600) to Ramillies (1706), Waterloo (1815), Verdun (1916), and the Bulge (1944).

	Amazon.com: Eldest (Inheritance, Book 2): Books: Christopher Paolini (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Surpassing its popular prequel Eragon, this second volume in the Inheritance trilogy shows growing maturity and skill on the part of its very young author, who was only seventeen when the first volume was published in 2003.
		The land of Alagaesia is suffering under the Empire of the wicked Galbatorix, and Eragon and his dragon Saphira, last of the Riders, are the only hope.
		Christopher Paolini began Eragon when he was just 15, and the book shows the influence of Tolkien, of course, but also Terry Brooks, Anne McCaffrey, and perhaps even Wagner in its traditional quest structure and the generally agreed-upon nature of dwarves, elves, dragons, and heroic warfare with magic swords.

	Shamash Book of the Month Archive
		In the first half of his book, Rabbi Greenberg takes us on his personal journey to a rethinking of Christianity, which ultimately gave rise to his belief that Christianity, Judaism (and every religion that works to repair the world and advance the triumph of life) are valid expressions of the pact between God and humankind.
		The book focuses on the editing of the Torah, interpreting the textual evidence, most notably contradictions and redundancies, to show that the idea of a pluralistic understanding of Revelation can be traced back to the editing of the Torah itself.
		Wisse is not content merely to evaluate the great books of Jewish literature; she also links the works together to present a new kind of Jewish history, as it has been told through the literature of the past hundred years.

	The Inheritance (2003): Ulrich Thomsen, Ghita Nørby, Lars Brygmann, Lisa Werlinder - PopMatters Film Review
		On the day we shot the scene where the workers get the slip in our film, using the mill's employees as extras, they were meeting later to be told that the company had stopped payments.
		With this in mind, The Inheritance might seem an anti-capitalist treatise, a tragic tale of a good man brought low through his complicity to the brutal logic of capitalism.
		Queen Ingrid's words are therefore neither fully ironic nor clearly aphoristic: the meaning of The Inheritance hinges on what the audience believes Christoffer has to do.

	The Law
		When a reviewer wishes to give special recognition to a book, he predicts that it will still be read "a hundred years from now." The Law, first published as a pamphlet in June, 1850, is already more than a hundred years old.
		Open at random any book on philosophy, politics, or history, and you will probably see how deeply rooted in our country is this idea — the child of classical studies, the mother of socialism.
		Why does he not see that men, by obeying their own instincts, would turn to farming on fertile soil, and to commerce on an extensive and easily accessible coast, without the interference of a Lycurgus or a Solon or a Rousseau who might easily be mistaken.
