Produktbeschreibung

The Economic and Social Impact of Byzantine Decline by Ryan Evans offers a detailed exploration of the transformative effects of the Byzantine Empire's decline on its economy and social structure. Focusing on the internal and external forces that weakened the empire over several centuries, this book examines the consequences of military defeats, territorial losses, and the rise of new powers. Through in-depth analysis, the book highlights how these changes led to a breakdown in traditional economic systems, shifts in social hierarchies, and the growing reliance on mercenaries and local defense. Additionally, it delves into the Byzantine peasantry's struggles under increasing taxation, the role of the Orthodox Church in providing social stability, and the empire's dwindling influence on trade and commerce. Ultimately, Evans presents a nuanced study of how the fall of Byzantium reshaped not only the empire but also its surrounding regions, leaving a lasting legacy on Eastern Europe, Russia, and the Mediterranean.
