Angeliki Laiou (1941-2008), one of the leading Byzantinists of her generation, broke new ground in the study of the social and economic history of the Byzantine Empire. This title brings together fourteen articles that reflect her enduring interest in Byzantium's political, ideological, and commercial relations with its neighbours.
These studies reflect the author's interest in history as it was lived: not only social and economic structures, but the men and women who made them function. The role of women in Byzantine economy and society is found to be much more important than had been believed.
