https://www.uni-muenster.de/Ejournals/index.php/byzrev/issue/feedThe Byzantine Review2024-11-11T17:46:01+01:00Prof. Dr. Michael Grünbartgruenbart@wwu.deOpen Journal Systems<p><em>The Byzantine Review</em> ist eine Online-Zeitschrift, in der Besprechungen, Notizen und Berichte zu aktuellen Publikationen aus allen Bereichen der Byzantinistik (Geschichte, Philologie, Archäologie, Numismatik, Sigillographie, Literatur) veröffentlicht werden. Der zeitliche Rahmen reicht von der Spätantike bis zum 15. Jahrhundert; da die Byzantinistik eine interdisziplinäre Disziplin ist, wird der Schwerpunkt auch auf die Verflechtungs-, Transfer- und Wirkungsgeschichte gelegt. Die Beiträge erscheinen in deutscher, englischer, französischer, italienischer und neugriechischer Sprache.</p> <p>SUBSCRIBE: byzantinereview@listserv.dfn.de</p>https://www.uni-muenster.de/Ejournals/index.php/byzrev/article/view/6100ByzRev 06.2024.072: Kaya Şahin, Peerless among princes: the life and times of Sultan Süleyman.2024-11-11T17:46:01+01:00András Kraftkrafta@zedat.fu-berlin.de<p>Kaya Şahin, Peerless among princes: the life and times of Sultan Süleyman.
