| Summary |
"Εγχειρίδιον Βυζαντινής Ιστορίας" by Paulos Karolides is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work is designed primarily as a textbook for students of philology, aiming to provide a practical overview of Byzantine history, integrated with key elements of medieval history. It addresses the gap in educational resources available for studying Byzantine history and offers a concise yet comprehensive guide to the subject. The opening of the book establishes its intent and scope, clarifying that while it is a comprehensive guide for students, it does not aspire to be an exhaustive scientific treatise. Karolides highlights the historical significance of Byzantine history as a continuation of ancient Roman history and articulates the development of the Byzantine Empire from the establishment of Constantinople. He addresses the cultural and political interplay between the Eastern Roman Empire and the Greek population, emphasizing the transition from Roman to Byzantine identity over a millennium of history, culminating in the empire's fall in 1453.
