Synopsis

English summary: This volume deals with the study of ethnography as a literary genre in Byzantine times, looking at Byzantine descriptions of foreign peoples. The Byzantine ethnographies under consideration here study mythological or historical origins, population density, physical characteristics, war, clothing, life conditions, including food and lodging, social structure and political organization, religious practices, relations between the sexes and marriage, and geography. French description: Ce livre, issu d'une serie de conferences donnees a l'EHESS en 2010 est une premiere esquisse pour mieux cerner l'attitude des Grecs du Moyen-Age face au monde exterieur, mais aussi face a eux-memes. Il est consacre a l'etude de la representation des peuples etrangers dans la litterature byzantine entre le IVe et le XIIe siecle, en analysant les textes litteraires sous l'angle du contexte politique. L'auteur demontre que les Byzantins avaient une connaissance detaillee des peuples etrangers, et que leur ethnographie etait liee aux debats contemporains, en particulier a ceux qui portaient sur la politique imperiale et sur les conflits religieux, dans le but de mettre en evidence la superiorite romano-chretienne.

Softcover. Condition: Very Good+. Minor edgewear to wraps. Faint bump to top of spine. ; Continuité et rupture. Ce livre a pour sujet l'étude de l'ethnographie en tant que genre littéraire à Byzance, c'est-à-dire les descriptions byzantines des peuples étrangers. Ce n'est pas une étude de la population byzantine selon les méthodes de la discipline ethnographique moderne, ce qui serait impossible, compte tenu de la nature des sources. L'ouvrage considère l'ethnographie comme un genre, pour souligner qu'il s'agit d'un produit littéraire avec une structure et un contenu plus ou moins stable, malgré le fait que ses formes et ses objectifs varient d'un auteur à l'autre. Les sujets habituellement traités par ce type d'ethnographie sont les suivants : l'origine mythique ou historique, la densité de peuplement, les caractéristiques somatiques, la guerre, les vêtements, les conditions de vie (y compris les repas et l'hébergement) , la structure sociale et l'organisation politique, la pratique religieuse, les relations entre les sexes et le mariage, et, bien sûr, la géographie. ; Séminaires Byzantins 2; 247 pages.
