https://www.uni-muenster.de/Ejournals/index.php/byzrev/issue/feed The Byzantine Review 2024-11-11T17:46:01+01:00 Prof. Dr. Michael Grünbart gruenbart@wwu.de Open 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/6100 ByzRev 06.2024.072: Kaya Şahin, Peerless among princes: the life and times of Sultan Süleyman. 2024-11-11T17:46:01+01:00 András Kraft krafta@zedat.fu-berlin.de <p>Kaya Şahin, Peerless among princes: the life and times of Sultan Süleyman.
