 Genuine American Monster Level: 70 CS Original | Even though you know everything imaginable about Byzantium, I thought I would share this podcast with you regardless. ----- 067 Icon of the Triumph of Orthodoxy 6 Jul 2010 Tue, 6 Jul 10 Duration: Icon from Constantinople showing the Triumph of Orthodoxy. Director of the British Museum, Neil MacGregor, tells the story of the overthrow of iconoclasm and the restoration of holy images in AD 843, a moment of triumph for the Orthodox branch of the Christian church. This icon shows the annual festival of orthodoxy celebrated on the first Sunday of Lent, with historical figures of that time and a famous depiction of the Virgin Mary. | |||||

 Paid Disinformation Blogger Level: 14 CS Original | Thanks. I know that story well but I still plan to listen to this, thanks for posting it. As long as we're talking about Byzantium, if you want to know more about it, I have a special Twitter account where I tweet nothing but Byzantine history. In fact I'm almost up to 843 A.D. and have done a lot of stuff on Iconoclasm recently. If you want to be even more of a geek than you already are, follow me: | |||||
