Women in Purple: Rulers of Medieval Byzantium
Judith Herrin
In the eighth and ninth centuries, three Byzantine empresses - Irene, Euphrosyne, and Theodora - changed history. Their efforts restored the veneration of icons, saving Byzantium from a symbolic and decorative art and ensuring its influence for centuries to come. This book shows how these women exercised imperial sovereignty.
