Rezensionen

'The publication of The Cambridge Companion to the Age of Justinian is a major achievement and event in the field of Byzantine studies that promises to raise to a higher level study of the East Roman world at its 6th-century apogee. ... contains a vast amount of information and learning for which student and specialist alike will be grateful.' The Anglo-Hellenic Review
