Цитата:
Quite possibly one of Sir Steven Runciman's best works, this book clearly, cleverly, and intelligently portrays a history of the rise of the Bulgarian state, from its formation out of a Hunnish tribe, through its civilization from the Byzantine Empire, through its legacy as the cultural center of the Orthodox Church to the Slavs, to its rival with the Byzantine Empire itself. Thoroughly readable, Runciman adds wit, intelligence, and historical humor to produce a book written on a topic little covered in the English language. Anyone who can get their hands on this hard-to-find book will not want to let it go. Why this book has not been republished is something I will never understand. Here we learn that it was Bulgaria, not Russia, not was the first student and benefactor from the Byzantine Commonwealth. A must-have addition.
