Inhaltsangabe

An important source for Byzantine culture and society, this collection of texts is typical of the late Roman and middle Byzantine hagiographical tradition. It throws light not only on cultural and social history but also on economy and politics and illustrates the transformations within a hagiographical text as new versions were written to reflect the social and cultural values of the time at which they were composed.
