Justiniana Prima. An Underestimated Aspect of Justinian s Church Policy

Opis książki:

The book explores the history of Justiniana Prima, a city built by Emperor Justinian I (527-565) in his birthplace near Ni in present-day Serbia. Previous studies focused on determining the citys location, underestimating the significance of analyzing written sources for the reconstruction of this citys genesis and importance. Using information from Emperor Justinians Novels XI and CXXXI, as well as Book IV of Procopius of Caesareas De aedificiis, Stanislaw Turlej endeavors to show that Justiniana Primas historic significance resulted from granting its Church the status of an archbishopric with its own province in 535, which was independent of Rome. Justinian wanted to introduce profound changes to the ecclesiastical organization based on state law.

Stanislaw Turlej is an assistant professor in the Institute of History at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow. He is the author and editor of numerous published works, including the book The Chronicle of Monemvasia: The Migration of the Slavs and Church Conflicts in the Byzantine Source from the Beginning of the 9th Century (2001).
