Specificatii
This modern English translation of all the surviving literary
compositions ascribed to Liudprand, the bishop of Cremona from 962
to 972, offers unrivaled insight into society and culture in
western Europe during the iron century. Since Liudprand enjoyed the
favor of the Saxon Roman emperor Otto the Great, and traveled to
Constantinople more than once on official business, his narratives
also reveal European attitudes toward the Byzantine Empire and the
culture of its refined capital city. No other tenth-century writer
had such privileged access to the high spheres of power, or such
acerbic wit and willingness to articulate critiques of the doings
of powerful people. first half of the 900s, and his Historia
Ottonis on the rise to power of Otto the Great) provide a unique
view of the recent past against a genuinely European backdrop,
unusual in a time of localized cultural horizons. Liudprand's
famous satirical description of his misadventures as Ottonian
legate at the Byzantine court in 968 is a vital source of
information on Byzantine ritual and diplomatic process, as well as
a classic of medieval intercultural encounter. This collection of
Liudprand's works also includes his recently discovered Easter
sermon, a rare early document of Jewish-Christian intellectual
polemic. Italian and German medieval history, and the history of
Byzantium will find this collection of translated texts rewarding.
A full introduction and extensive notes help readers to place
Liudprand's writings in context.
