    Venetian Judges and Their Jurisdiction in Constantinople in the 12Th Century

    VENETIAN JUDGES AND THEIR JURISDICTION IN CONSTANTINOPLE IN THE 12TH CENTURY Some observations based on information drawn from the chrysobull of Alexios III Angelos to Venice in 11981 § 1. Introduction In 1198 the Byzantine emperor Alexios III Angelos issued a privilege act, a so-called chrysobull, in favour of the maritime city-republic of Venice.2 As is the case with all Byzantine imperial acts bestowing privileges upon Venice, the original chrysobull in Greek has been lost. Fortunately, however, a copy of a Latin translation of it has been preserved in two manuscripts that are today kept in the State Archives of Venice.3 The Venetians are granted the privilege to trade freely within the entire empire, on sea or on land.4 The last part of the chrysobull includes detailed provisions concerning many legal issues, including the competence of judges in civil law and in ‘criminal law’, as well as law of succession. Venetian judges are granted the right to judge mixed cases, namely cases between Venetians and Byzantines. However, does this jurisdiction of Venetians cover both civil and criminal cases or not? And under which particular conditions are the Venetian judges allowed to judge such cases? I shall try in this paper to answer briefly these questions. 1 This paper is based on a lecture delivered in June 2007 in Groningen, at a symposium organised by the department of Legal History of the University of Groningen on the occasion of Bernard Stolte’s departure for Rome to take up his new position as director of the Royal Netherlands Institute.

    Byzantine Critiques of Monasticism in the Twelfth Century

    A “Truly Unmonastic Way of Life”: Byzantine Critiques of Monasticism in the Twelfth Century DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hannah Elizabeth Ewing Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Professor Timothy Gregory, Advisor Professor Anthony Kaldellis Professor Alison I. Beach Copyright by Hannah Elizabeth Ewing 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines twelfth-century Byzantine writings on monasticism and holy men to illuminate monastic critiques during this period. Drawing upon close readings of texts from a range of twelfth-century voices, it processes both highly biased literary evidence and the limited documentary evidence from the period. In contextualizing the complaints about monks and reforms suggested for monasticism, as found in the writings of the intellectual and administrative elites of the empire, both secular and ecclesiastical, this study shows how monasticism did not fit so well in the world of twelfth-century Byzantium as it did with that of the preceding centuries. This was largely on account of developments in the role and operation of the church and the rise of alternative cultural models that were more critical of traditional ascetic sanctity. This project demonstrates the extent to which twelfth-century Byzantine society and culture had changed since the monastic heyday of the tenth century and contributes toward a deeper understanding of Byzantine monasticism in an under-researched period of the institution. ii Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my family, and most especially to my parents. iii Acknowledgments This dissertation is indebted to the assistance, advice, and support given by Anthony Kaldellis, Tim Gregory, and Alison Beach.

Meanwhile, the state administration evolved in an attempt to adjust to the new conditions. One of the firm steps towards this goal was the creation of the office (σέκρετον) of ἐπί τῶν κρίσεων by emperor Constantine IX Monomachos (1042– 1055) somewhere between 1043 and 1047. This institution is the topic of the cur- rent paper, which aims to summarize the evidence from primary sources and the major contributions from the end of the 19th century to the present day. The main part, however, consists of a list of officials in this position, compiled using the available data from different sources – rhetorical, epistolary, documentary and sphragistic. The only historical source for the establishment of theepi ton kriseon and its initial functions is the History by Michael Attaleiates1. According to this account, the newly founded office was to deal with private legal cases (δικῶν ἰδιωτικῶν); furthermore, provincial judges (τῶν ἐπαρχιῶν δικασταί) were supposed to send copies or notes (τῶν σχεδαρίων) to inform the official about their decisions, in order to be free of any suspicion concerning their equity. The institution under discussion has been studied quite thoroughly for more than a century. Among the most important contributions are those by Karl Edu- ard Zachariä von Lingenthal2, Helene Ahrweiler3, Nikos Oikonomidès4, Michael 1 Michael Attaleiates, History, ed.
