Welcome to THE first issue of
The byZantine times
After founding The Byzantine Society (ByzantineSociety.com) a few months ago for people who love Byzantium, not merely as an academic field of study, but as a form of civilisation that has come closest to establishing the Kingdom of God, among the excitable emails received were several bemoaning the fact there was no serious forum for articles, arguments and general mischief, so here is a vehicle fit for such a purpose. Please send emails as am hoping to set up a LETTERS page in future issues.
