Περίληψη:	The literary production of all ages has always been at the forefront of research in the humanities. Regarding the output of the “Byzantine millennium” this research seems to be inexhaustible. This is because Byzantine texts were almost always engaged in a constant interchange between reality and myth, symbolism and allegory, invention and deliberate deception, intentional contradiction and propagation, thus forcing modern scholars to perpetually search for new ways to approach and interpret them. In the present volume, historians and literacy scholars, studying sources dating from the 5th to the 14th century and focusing on issues relating to literary expression, ideology and society, highlight the ways in which Byzantine authors perceived and presented events and situations, which for some belonged to the distant past, while for others constituted personal experiences. Comparisons between texts of the same period often reveal the significant changes that occurred at the ideological, political, social and religious level, while comparisons among works of the same author can bring into view the said author as an individual and distinct identity , expressing personal views and perspectives for the events of his/her own lifetime. The essays in the present volume do not aim to cover exhaustively the multifaceted issues relating to the study of Byzantine authors and their times; rather they aim to raise questions and suggest interpretations so as to provoke new discussions and proposals.
