		The Heraclian dynasty, which had fallen on evil times and rendered inestimable services to the Empire, came to an end in anarchy, which was terminated by the elevation of the Syrian (commonly called Isaurian) Leo III., whose reign opens a new period.
		Theodosius the Great, by causing his two sons, Arcadius and Honorius, to be elected Augusti in their infancy, practically elevated the dynastic idea into a constitutional principle; henceforward it was regarded as in the regular course that the son born to a reigning sovereign should in his infancy be elected Augustus.

	Abbeys Bookshop - Byzantine Monuments of Istanbul
		The extant Byzantine monuments of Istanbul include more than 20 churches, most notably Haghia Sophia, as well as the remains of the land and sea walls, the Hippodrome, imperial palaces, commemorative columns, reservoirs and cisterns, an aqueduct, a triumphal archway and a fortified port.
		They are described here in chronological order and in the context of their times, through the political, religious, social, economic, intellectual and artistic developments in the dynasties that came to power during the turbulent Byzantine age.
		A major part of the architectural and artistic heritage of Byzantium, these monuments also serve as a link between the world of classical antiquity and the new epochs of early modern Europe and the Ottoman Empire.

		The best thing about the book is the authors' familiarity with the latest research.
		The worst thing is the publisher's presentation of it: the names of specialists are mangled; old diagrams and plans are borrowed and updated with absurd hybrids ("Portico of Sept S^Devere"); the name of the Comnenian dynasty appears correctly in the text but becomes "Commenian" in all the running heads.
		Already on page 1 we are told that Constantinople was "synonomous" with the Roman Empire.
