Abstract

Both the Bouras and Tsougarakis books are splendid introductions to their respective periods, Bouras on Middle Byzantine Athens, and the Tsougarakis-Lock edited volume on Frankish Greece. But the prices surely rule out owning a hard-copy of either book for almost all interested readers. At least Routledge offers a cheap online-version as a reasonable alternative access. Brill’s policy of matching online price to hard copy is quite unfathomable. Charalambos Bouras, who died in 2016 shortly before this volume on Athens appeared, was a giant in the field of Byzantine and Post-Byzantine Architecture, and this volume bears ample witness to his mastery of the monuments, and in particular of their historical context. It was first published by the Benaki Museum in 2010, but has been revised for this new Routledge edition. It is a fine accompaniment to his earlier excellent introduction to the architecture of Greece as a whole from Early Byzantine to the Early Modern era, published bilingually by the leading Athens publisher Melissa (Bouras 2006). This final work covers in immense detail the architectural record of Athens from the 6th through to the end of the 12th centuries AD, although very little indeed can be said of the first Byzantine period – the Early Byzantine, from the later 7th to the mid-9th centuries. At its core is a careful catalogue of some forty churches which can be assigned to the Middle Byzantine period (late 9th to the end of the 12th centuries).

布拉斯和Tsougarakis的书都是对各自时代的精彩介绍,布拉斯的书是关于拜占庭中期雅典的,Tsougarakis- lock的书是关于法兰克希腊的。但对于几乎所有感兴趣的读者来说,这两本书的价格肯定排除了购买纸质书的可能性。至少劳特利奇提供了一个便宜的在线版本,作为一个合理的选择。布里尔将网上价格与纸质版价格相匹配的政策令人费解。Charalambos Bouras于2016年去世,在这本关于雅典的书出版前不久,他是拜占庭和后拜占庭建筑领域的一位巨人,这本书充分证明了他对纪念碑的掌握,特别是对其历史背景的掌握。它于2010年由贝纳基博物馆首次出版,但已经为这个新的劳特利奇版进行了修订。这是一个很好的伴奏,他早先优秀的介绍希腊建筑作为一个整体,从早期拜占庭到早期现代,由雅典领先的出版商梅丽莎双语出版(Bouras 2006)。这部最后的作品非常详细地涵盖了从公元6世纪到12世纪末的雅典建筑记录,尽管关于第一个拜占庭时期——从7世纪后期到9世纪中期的早期拜占庭时期,确实可以说得很少。它的核心是一个大约40座教堂的精心目录,这些教堂可以被分配到拜占庭中期(9世纪末到12世纪末)。
