BERNARD, F., Writing and Reading Byzantine Secular Poetry, 1025-1081. Oxford University Press, 2014. 400p. Hardback. Series: Oxford Studies in Byzantium. Rich in close readings and approaching its subject from a variety of angles, this book is in a sense a literary history of Byzantine secular poetry in the eleventh century, or more precisely 1025-1081.. . . [A]n important synthesis of previous scholarship on the, until lately, somewhat ignored category of Byzantine verse. It is, however, also an important contribution in itself, promoting several ideas about the writers of verse and their audience. . . . [A] very useful reference tool for further work.
