They formed part of a nexus of social, economic and spiritual relationships that bound together the \"powerful\" in the middle Byzantine state. Using hagiography, chronicles and, in particular, the newly-available archives of the Athonite monasteries, this book reassesses the role of monks in Byzantine society and examines the reasons for the flowering of the monastic life in the period from the end of iconoclasm to the beginning of the twelfth century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rosemary Morris\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521265584\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521265584\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/19\/1995\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 356\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.41lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.22h x 6.20w x 0.94d","brand":"Rosemary Morris","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44138403201279,"sku":"9780521265584","price":135.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e6d9178e-0070-49e5-827b-b6100b6d65df.jpg?v=1687899471","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/monks-and-laymen-in-byzantium-rosemary-morris-9780521265584","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
