	Ancestors and Family of Theophano of Byzantium
		She was born in 956, and at the young age of sixteen, she was married off by her father to the son of Otto the Great in 972.
		A second problem that Theophano faced was the fact that she was Greek, and many Germans of that time period were highly distrustful of the Greek.
		Theophano married Otto II der Rote of Germany, son of Otto I the Great of Germany and Adelheid of Burgundy, on 14 Apr 972.

	Roman Emperors DIR Theophano, wife of Romanus II and Nicephorus Phocas
		Theophano may not have been as fl as she was painted: at least, her conspiracy against Nicephorus had the possible merit of protecting the interests of her two sons, the rightful emperors.
		Theophano was unable to persuade Nicephorus otherwise, despite repeated quarrels, and so took John as her lover and instigated him to kill the emperor.
		Theophano attempted twice to influence the transfer of power, in both cases hoping to ensure the protection of the rights to the throne of her young sons.

	Theophano (Byzantine Empress)
		Romanus' father Constantine VII Porphyrogentius avoided the mistake of preventing his son to marry the girl of his choice--as had several of his precedessors, culminating in their downfalls--by blandly pretending that Anastaso was of noble birth.
		However, Theophano badly miscalculated in the hope of becoming the wife of the new ruler.
		However, shortly afterwards, she made a reappearance in the capital, seeking asylum in the Hagia Sophia, where, however, she was forcibly removed on the orders of the Chamberlain Basil, who condemned her to exile in distant Armenia.

	Germany - The “marriage document of the Empress Theophano”: UNESCO-CI (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-06)
		In this document or deed, written in Latin, Emperor Otto II testifies that on the occasion of his marriage he confers upon his bride, the Byzantine princess Theophano, as her marriage portion lands and estates of enormous extent in Italy, Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands.
		The marriage between the 17-year-old emperor, heir apparent to the throne, and the 12-year-old Theophano was blessed by Pope Johannes XIII in Rome.
		Although strictly speaking, it is Otto II’s deed, the document is regarded as the “marriage document of Theophano”, for it testifies an endowment of goods in her favour.

	Recipies for Reverie with Janet Theophano
		Janet Theophano, adjunct associate professor of Folklore and Folklife and associate director of the College of General Studies, was browsing and discovered an interesting little book of what looked like poetry but was actually a collection of recipes.
		Gradually, Theophano began to see the cookbook as "a memoir, a diary, a record of life." Thus began her study of cookbooks and her understanding of them as "something between a scrapbook and an autobiography."
		Theophano, the curator, shaped the exhibit into several case studies demonstrating social developments as reflected by the cookbooks of the period.

		Before the kidnapping of her son, Theophano had made arrangements to return to Germany and take upon her the Regency which was justly hers.
		Neither Heinrich nor his supporters were punished when Theophano again refused to take revenge as she, with political insight, realised that this would only extend the unrest in the Empire.

		Theophano was born of eminent parents, Constantine and Anna, who were kin to several emperors.
		Imbued with the Christian spirit from her childhood, Theophano surpassed all her companions in all the Christian virtues.
		After his father's death, Leo became emperor and was called ``the Wise.'' Theophano did not consider her imperial dignity as anything, but, completely devoted to God, she cared only about the salvation of her soul, fasting and praying, distributing many alms, and restoring many monasteries and churches.

		But in it, Janet Theophano (Gr’82) found the life of an overlooked woman -- a life that set Theophano off in search of the ways cookbooks transmit more than just instructions on preparing food.
		And yet, Theophano noted, the moralizing tradition survives to this day in tomes such as Alice Waters’ “Chez Panisse Café Cookbook,” with its concern over world hunger.
		Food has been a means for Theophano herself to comment on culture and society as well.
