Until 1892 there was no special review dedicated to Byzantine research; now there are dozens. The meager bibliographies in nineteenth-century dissertations rarely exceeded a rage or two, whereas the bibliographies in modern works often include thousands of items. Who among Byzantinists has never regretted the steady expansion of the third, bibliographical section of the Byzantinische Zeitschrift, where the constant growth in Byzantinological production is reflected in ever increasing listings, which seem to leave almost no room for a summary of the book or article in question? While Franz Dolger was editor many notes were developed into little reviews, but authors are now forced to restrict their notes to rarely bibliographical notices. Byzantine studies were founded in the seventeenth century, but until the end of the nineteenth they were commonly regarded as cartusually the concluding partof the history of the Roman empire or of the Hellenistic world. Byzantine literature was seen as a direct continuation of the late Greek literature, both pagan and patristic, and Byzantine law was unhesitatingly placed within the framework of late Roman legal history. Byzantine art, which could less easily be tied to its Greco-Roman predecessors, was by and large neglected until the last decades of the nineteenth century. This approach has now changed.
