Two Weddings and a Funeral
The marriage of Germanus, nephew of Emperor Justin I (r. 518–527), to Matasuintha, former Gothic queen and granddaughter of Theoderic the Great (r. 475–526), in late 549 or early 550, was a significant yet often overlooked moment in the later stages of the Gothic War. Scholars generally interpret the marriage as a pragmatic alliance shaped by immediate strategic concerns – either a political manoeuvre by Justinian or a personal initiative by Germ…

n this, the fourth volume in the on-going Malalas-Studien series, the rehabilitation of John Malalas continues.Based on a conference at Tbingen in February of , the study offers twelve chapters in German, English, and French by an appropriate blend of established scholars and newer voices.Building on the work of the previous volumes, the bulk of chapters here examines how the cultural and political discourse in Malalas' world(s) shaped John both …
A Tangled Web
Few debates in modern academia are as heated as the one among scholars who consider the arrival of bubonic plague in Constantinople in the spring of 542 as a demographic and social disaster and those who argue for less tumultuous outcomes. Whatever side one stands on in the current discussion, the pandemic’s immediate impact on the administration, economy, politics, society and religious culture within Constantinople and the wider empire seems cl…
Bashing Belisarius
When attacking their enemies late Roman and Byzantine intellectuals recognized that words could be effective and sometimes deadly weapons. These authors have left some memorable polemics. Of these, the most famous and widely read today is the sixth-century Anecdota or Secret History by Procopius. This article examines the role polemic plays in the Secret History and particularly Procopius’ hostile portrait of his former superior, the general Beli…

Η αφήγηση του ιστοριογράφου Προκoπίου για τον πόλεμο εναντίον των Γότθων στην Ιταλία περιέχει πολλές περιπτώσεις Γότθων, Ιταλών και Ανατολικών Ρωμαίων που αλλάζουν παρατάξεις κατά τη διάρκεια της μακράς σύγκρουσης. Η συστηματική εξέταση του θέματος δείχνει ότι ο Προκόπιος γενικά αντιμετώπιζε με συγκατάβαση τους στρατιώτες που λιποτακτούσαν, στάση, που αντικατοπτρίζει τις ευρύτερες μεσογειακές αντιλήψεις του 6ου αιώνα. Τί μπορούν να μας διδάξουν τ…
Nothing about us without us, or the dangers of a closed-society research paradigm
In recent years a number of calls have been made for a ‘new paradigm’ in Romani Studies. Sometimes referred to as ‘critical Romani Studies’, the proposed research agenda focusses on racism and its importance for Roma and Romani identity, as well as issues arising from inequalities and the structural discrimination of Roma. Drawing from post-colonial studies, feminist critique, intersectionality and ‘critical race theory’ the advocates of this app…
Provider perceptions of the value of same-day, electronic patient-reported measures for use in clinical HIV care
Strong evidence suggests that patient-reported outcomes (PROs) aid in managing chronic conditions, reduce omissions in care, and improve patient-provider communication. However, provider acceptability of PROs and their use in clinical HIV care is not well known. We interviewed providers (n = 27) from four geographically diverse HIV and community care clinics in the US that have integrated PROs into routine HIV care, querying perceived value, chal…
Making Early Medieval Societies
An exceptional essay often raises as many questions as it answers. I found each paper in this volume—based on the 2005 conference, “The Peace and the Feud: History and Anthropology 1955–2005”—innovative and thought-provoking. Deftly interweaving disparate methods, time-periods, and regions, the monograph produces a fresh vision of a millennium of Western European history. Using the anthropologist Max Gluckman’s mid-twentieth century work as a piv…
A Systematic Review of Prevalence Studies on Multimorbidity
Death of a president
This paper examines the hypothetical docudrama Death of a President (2006). While sharing a number of its sister Wall-to-Wall texts’ narrative and generic features, Death of a President focuses more strongly on the war on terror. The paper examines the nature of this focus – the way in which the war on terror is treated aesthetically and ideologically by Death of a President. Two sequences in particular are examined in detail: the opening parts o…
