of what it meant to be 'Greek' in late antiquity and Byzantium, an
identity that could alternatively become national, religious,
philosophical, or cultural. Through close readings of the sources,
Professor Kaldellis surveys the space that Hellenism occupied in each
period; the broader debates in which it was caught up; and the
historical causes of its successive transformations. The first section
(100-400) shows how Romanization and Christianization led to the
abandonment of Hellenism as a national label and its restriction to a
negative religious sense and a positive, albeit rarefied, cultural one.
The second (1000-1300) shows how Hellenism was revived in Byzantium and
contributed to the evolution of its culture. The discussion looks
closely at the reception of the classical tradition, which was the
reason why Hellenism was always desirable and dangerous in Christian
society, and presents a new model for understanding Byzantine
civilization
