  • About Russian Beginnings
    CK_5_TH_HG_P104_230.QXD 2/14/06 2:23 PM Page 209 At a Glance continued ◗ Ivan III (the Great) and Ivan IV (the Terrible) expanded Russian terri- tory and the authority of the czars. ◗ Peter the Great sought to modernize and westernize Russia in order to enable it to compete with European nations for trade, territory, and prestige. ◗ The desire to find a warm-water port was one factor that encouraged Russian expansion. ◗ Catherine the Great, while once interested in reforming certain abuses of Russian government, became as autocratic as her predecessors after a peasant revolt and the French Revolution. ◗ The lives of peasants worsened under Peter and Catherine. Teaching Idea What Teachers Need to Know You may want to teach section B, A. History and Culture “Geography,” before “History and Culture.” Byzantine Influence in Russia The rise of Russia is closely related to the history of the Byzantine Empire, which students in Core Knowledge schools should have encountered in Grades 3 and 4. For a thousand years after the fall of the Roman Empire in the west, the Eastern or Byzantine Empire continued to build on ancient Greek and Roman tra- ditions and culture. For example, Byzantine architects used the Roman dome to build magnificent churches, such as Hagia Sophia in the Byzantine capital of Constantinople (now called Istanbul). Byzantine artists also created beautiful mosaics and icons. Students in Core Knowledge schools should have studied Hagia Sophia and Byzantine mosaics as part of the art curriculum for Grade 3. However, they may not be acquainted with icons, which are special pictures of Jesus, Mary, and the saints.

  • India, China, and Byzantium
    c H A p T E R 9 India, China, and Byzantium Lin Cheng yawned and pushed aside the report he had been writing. Noticing that the room was filled with a soft glow, he looked out the window. A full moon lit up the canal below. Barges filled with rice floated by on their way to Beijing. It had been a good harvest, and the peasants were singing as they poled their barges through the water. Tonight, Lin Cheng felt like a father to these strong, hard- working people. He had been their governor for 20 years. And thanks to the policies of the emperor, he had been a just one. Lin Cheng thought how lucky he had been. He no longer minded that his older brother had inherited the family property. He, Lin Cheng, had been the clever one. He had scored high on the civil service examination. Now, instead of acting as the manager of his brother's estate, he ruled a whole province. What if he had been born under the previous line of emperors? Under the Sui, he would have had no opportunity for advancement. Would he have grown resentful of his brother's arrogance? Would he have escaped to this very province? Instead of bringing peace and plenty to its people, would he have urged them to rebel against their rulers? Lin Cheng felt his pulse quicken a little. These contrasting fates would make a good poem. He turned back to his writing table and dipped his brush in the ink. 157 U s empires grew larger and more complex, their rulers tried Ei! many methods of governing.

  • Northumbrian Numismatic Chronology in the Ninth Century
    NORTHUMBRIAN NUMISMATIC CHRONOLOGY IN THE NINTH CENTURY H. E. PAGAN THE subject of this paper is the coinage struck in Northumbria in. the ninth centuiy by the kings of Northumbria and by the archbishops of York.1 'The coins are nominally described as sceattas if their appearance is silvery and as stycas if they are predominantly copper. They will be familiar to most numismatists. What I propose to do is to review the coinage as a whole and offer a scheme for a major redating of most of the coins. It may be reassuring to know that the proposal though drastic is not altogether revolu- tionary. The circumstances are peculiar. In an article published in the British Numis- matic Journal thirteen years ago2 Mr. C. S. S. Lyon arranged the coins in their proper chronological order and estabhshed with reasonable accuracy the period of time for which each king and archbishop struck. It would be reasonable to suppose that this would make a substantial redating of the coinage impossible. In fact foe a variety of reasons it does not. Without rejecting any of Mr. Lyon's mam coacfarions it will fee possible to adopt a scheme of dating that looks very different from the scheme which has been accepted until now; and this is the course of actionforwhiAIshaiteaigBiBg. An initial difficulty of any discussion of the problems involved is that this is a mkagp that for one reason or another people do not take very seriously. Parity this is fceeamas the coins are not themselves attractive. Partly this is because the coins arc very eomramm, and familiarity breeds contempt.

  • Introduction the Practice of Christianity in Byzantium Derek
    Introduction The Practice of Christianity in Byzantium Derek Krueger In sixth-century Palestine, a circle of women gathered to weave curtains for two monasteries in the Judean desert. In the seventh century, a merchant from the island of Chios spent three months living and sleeping at the shrine of Saint Artemios in Constantinople waiting for the saint to heal his hernia. In eighth-century Constantinople, young mothers routinely adorned their babies with amulets to protect them from demons.1 In the twelfth century, in a small church in the Peloponnese, villagers attended liturgical services surrounded by life-size images of the saints; in another church, in the mountains of Cyprus, colorful scenes of major events in the lives of Christ and the Virgin, painted throughout the church, enveloped congregants in the world of the Bible. In fifteenth-century Thessalonica, mourners marked the third, ninth, and fortieth day after a family member’s death by bringing offerings of boiled wheat with nuts and raisins to the parish church.2 Such acts shaped lay Christianity in Byzantium. This volume of A People’s History of Christianity, dedicated to Byzantine Christianity, explores the practices of lay Christians during the eleven centuries between the foundation of the city of Constantinople in 324 and its fall to the Ottoman Turks in 1453. Lasting from late antiquity to the threshold of the early modern period, the Byzantine Empire began as the eastern half of the Roman Empire and ended as a small medieval state. In the intervening centuries, Byzantine Christianity developed as a distinct system of religious practice and devotion, different from the medieval Roman 2 Catholicism emerging simultaneously farther west.
