Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Limited Summary: This book reflects a preoccupation with analysing the early Byzantine chronicles, above all the very different works of Marcellinus and Malalas, both as historiographical artefacts and as testimony for the years they cover. Many of the studies here demonstrate that, when set in context, even the briefest chronicle entry may shed new light on some aspect of early Byzantine politics, topography or prosopography.

This book reflects a preoccupation with analysing the early Byzantine chronicles, above all the very different works of Marcellinus and Malalas, both as historiographical artefacts and as testimony for the years they cover. Many of the studies here demonstrate that, when set in context, even the briefest chronicle entry may shed new light on some aspect of early Byzantine politics, topography or prosopography. Particular themes are the development of the Christian chronicle as a form of presenting the past, the ceremonial life of Constantinople, and the relations between the Roman government and the tribes invading the Balkans.Cet ouvrage traduit une préoccupation certaine se rapportant à l'analyse des chroniques byzantines et surtout des travaux bien différents de Marcellin et de Malalas; l'un et l'autre en tant au'artefacts historiographiques et que témoignages des années qui y sont couvertes. Bon nombre des études contenues dans ce volume démontrent que, lorsqu'on la replace dans son contexte, ne serait-ce que la plus brève des chroniques enregistrées peut apporter un nouvel éclaircissement quant à un aspect ou un autre de la politique, de la topographie ou de la prosopographie byzantine. On retrouve parmi les thèmes ceux du développement de la chronique chrétienne, en tant que modèle de présentation du passé, de la vie cérémonielle de Constantinople et des rapports entre le gouvernement romain et les tribus qui envahissaient les Balkans.
