As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Ev Chrysos14 Sp Vryonis15 Dem Triantaphyllopoulos16 Ch Chotzakoglou17) numismatists (D Metcalf18) and Arabologists (B Christides19) have underlined that the literary sources and the archaeological evidence do not support a ldquocon-dominiumrdquo in Cyprus Furthermore the sharing of Cyprusrsquo tax-revenues on the ground of a Treaty between Arabs and the central Byzantine administration does not prove a shared administration of the island Is this actually the reason which led the writers to use next to the term of ldquocondominiumrdquo also the weaker one of ldquoequilibriumrdquo (p 358)

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Ev Chrysos14 Sp Vryonis15 Dem Triantaphyllopoulos16 Ch Chotzakoglou17) numismatists (D Metcalf18) and Arabologists (B Christides19) have underlined that the literary sources and the archaeological evidence do not support a ldquocon-dominiumrdquo in Cyprus Furthermore the sharing of Cyprusrsquo tax-revenues on the ground of a Treaty between Arabs and the central Byzantine administration does not prove a shared administration of the island Is this actually the reason which led the writers to use next to the term of ldquocondominiumrdquo also the weaker one of ldquoequilibriumrdquo (p 358)

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history

Economy Society and State (p 453-530) the patt erns of sett lement urban and rural life (p 531-572) the Social elites and the court (p 573-624) the triptych Society-Politics and Power (p 625-664) the fi scal management and administration (p 665-722) the strategic administration and the origins of the Th emata (p 723-776) and fi nal the chapter with the conclusions and the summary of the new approach of the writers regarding Iconoclasm under the title Iconoclasm representation and rewriting the past (p 772-799) As last parts of the book follow the Sources (p 800-814) the secondary Literature (p 815-906) and the Index (p 907-918)

As the authors several times state their purpose was to rewrite the past (p 787) to challenge modify and interrogate several of the established as-sumptions made by older and recent historians (p 6-8) and in this context they claim the title of the ldquohereticrdquo in the sense that they introduce new ideas against established theories We could summarize one of the main basic ideas of the authors as follows the years around 680 were crucial for the development of Byzantine society Although portable icons existed already since the fi rst Christian centuries mainly restricted to the images-not-made-by-human-hand (ldquoacheiropoietesrdquo) and few more Iconoclasm was the response to the popularization and their mass production (p 774ff ) Th e gradual strengthening of the Arabs and the institutionalization of Islam resulted not only in the fi nal loss of the Byzantine territories in the Near and Middle East and in northern Africa but also in mass conver-sion to Islam and the transformation of many churches into mosques In this historical context the eschatological texts were widespread the sense of insecurity became evident and the Byzantines felt the need to treat the holy images as a means of access to the divine presence Th e holy images appeared to off er according to the authors the answer to the spiritual and psychological needs of the Byzantines Th ese needs provoked diff erent or-der of demand for holy icons where the believer would keep a holy portrait in his own house the icon was addressed as if it was the saint himself and prayers could be said directly to it the worshipper would receive strength through the contact and be relieved from the phobia occasioned by the wars without needing to travel every time to the holy tombs or places

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

which kept the rare images-not-made-by-human-hand Th is uncontrolled prevalence of the holy images the superstitions which were oft en related with them the anxiety of the Church that it would lose control over these holy images the transformation of the icon to an image of private devo-tion and ldquovenerationrdquo as well as the weakening of the pilgrimage centers (p 782ff ) combined with the great natural disasters of the period (volca-nic explosion of Th era and Th erasia of 726) and the Islamic accusation of Byzantine idolatry led to the Iconoclastic reaction Th e practice of hon-oring sacred images was an innovation and as such a deviation state the authors this led to the need of purifi cation as it was understood by the court and many churchmen and was expressed through the imperial poli-cy which probably removed some icons from churches and restricted the public display of certain type of images (p 153) Th ese anxieties were al-ready expressed in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (692) -especially Canons 62 82 100 - (p 772-799) Th e authors conclude also that under Leo III no substantive evidence exists regarding a systematic and destruc-tive iconoclastic activity ndashnot even for the removal although it is possible that some were removed (p 153)- of images (p 153) but rather some im-ages were whitewashed (p 207-210) Th e relevant anti-iconoclastic refer-ences in the texts lie to the later iconophile propaganda and are proven to be either inventions and legends or later interpolations and embroideries att ached by iconophilepost-iconoclast writers to stories of iconoclast ac-tivities (p 210-211) Th e only iconic presentation which undoubtedly was replaced by a cross is the church of the Koimesis of Holy Virgin in Nicaea the monument is placed in a context of a new iconographic program with the depiction of crosses in the apses which was initiated in Constantinople (St Sophia and St Eirene) and was gradually widespread to the provinces of the empire (St Sophia in Th essalonike) (p 296-297) Th e authors con-clude that the characteristic preserved mosaic representations of the early Christian period in the church of St Demetrios in Th essalonike as well as the replacement of the crosses in the apses of the churches (St Sophia in Th essalonike church of Koimesis in Nicaea) ca 200 years later and not immediately aft er the ldquoTriumph of the Orthodoxyrdquo (843) as it would be

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

expected specially in such big towns demonstrate that there was not such a fury against the images by the Iconoclasts as it was with exaggeration de-scribed in the later texts of the iconophile propaganda (p 203-210 237) Th rough the detailed description of the preparation of the VII Ecumenical Council in Nicaea (787) they demonstrate the power of the Iconoclasts not only in the court but also in the army the civil administration and the Church who at the end succeeded to call off the initial planned Council of 786 in Constantinople (p 269-272) Taken into consideration also other facts the authors conclude that Iconoclasm was not a matt er of opposi-tion between the centre and the periphery as it was previously believed2 or related to social and administrative reforms (p 792) As the writers un-derline Iconoclasm was never a mass popular movement but begun rather as ldquoa debate between churchmen and by the mid-eighth century became an instrument of imperial policy and a refl ection of Constantine Vrsquos be-liefs and interpretation of its own timesrdquo (p 400-401) It was widespread in the empire in the context of a usurper Leo V receiving the meaning of justifi cation of his power and a symbolic avowal of the public expression of their loyalty to the emperor applied only lukewarmly by Michael II and more strictly under Th eophilos and was disconnected by the exact mean-ing defi nition of the word ldquoIconoclasmrdquo (p 262) Gradually the victories of the Isaurian emperors at the batt le-fi elds and the defeats of the Bulgars were founded upon the iconoclastic dogma by the Byzantine soldiery and probably elements of the population of Constantinople Th e support of the iconoclastic military and ecclesiastical elite to the iconoclast emperor ensured also their social status off ered access to power and authority in their provinces and guaranteed their physical security and survival from the iconodule opposition (p 382-383 789 793-796)

Among the theories which are being put forward or re-presented in the book we pick out the ldquoiconophobiardquo in the art of Islam (prohibition of every living creaturersquos presentation) (p 106-115 232-234 245-246) which

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Ev Chrysos14 Sp Vryonis15 Dem Triantaphyllopoulos16 Ch Chotzakoglou17) numismatists (D Metcalf18) and Arabologists (B Christides19) have underlined that the literary sources and the archaeological evidence do not support a ldquocon-dominiumrdquo in Cyprus Furthermore the sharing of Cyprusrsquo tax-revenues on the ground of a Treaty between Arabs and the central Byzantine administration does not prove a shared administration of the island Is this actually the reason which led the writers to use next to the term of ldquocondominiumrdquo also the weaker one of ldquoequilibriumrdquo (p 358)

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

To the undoubted weaknesses of the volume we have to include the Index Either some geographical names are totally absent (eg Monastery of Katharon in Constantinople (p 290) Monastery of the Holy Virgin in Symbola (p 314) the mountain Olympos etc) as well as titles (eg archon (p 761-2) furthermore the same persons are found in the Index under diff erent entries without any connection registered (eg Epiphanios of Constantia and Epiphanios of Cyprus) in other cases terms and geographical names are only partially registered (eg ldquoCyprusrdquo is mentioned in the book beyond its fi ve entries additionally in the pages 210 322 497 501 504 505 507 511 517 762 the Vita of St Stephen can be also found in the pages 234 and 235 Epiphanios of Constantia is also mentioned in the pages 45 46 47 and 52)

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history

is observed just before and during the Byzantine Iconoclasm (prohibition only of the holy fi guresrsquo presentation) and the authors consider to be a coincidental phenomenon (p 106-107 114-115) Th e authors argue also that the replacement of the living creaturesrsquo presentations with geometric patt erns in the mosaic fl oors of the East (Syropalaistine Jordan etc) was carried out on the initiative of Christians and by Christian artists and is not connected to Byzantine Iconoclasm but to the enforced aniconic tradition of the Muslims (p 106-115) Furthermore they dispute the profi le created by the later iconophile sources of Leo III as a fanatic iconoclast (p 151-155) they share the view that the motivation of Th eodora to restore the icons was not rooted in her purism (p 447-9) they re-date the ldquoPeuseisrdquo possibly aft er 748 disconnecting them from the iconoclastic Council of Hiereia (754) and dispute the prohibitions of the ldquorelicrsquos venerationrdquo att ributed to the emperor Constantine V (p 211 227-228)

Th ey refer very oft en to the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger which off ered as text the model for many other hagiological Vitas (eg monk Georgios Andreas en Krisei) (p 400 and note 137) and one of the most widespread texts of the Iconodules contributing to the formation of the opinion we have today for Iconoclasm commenting in every occasion that it has to be considered as a ldquonotoriously unreliable sourcerdquo (p 300) Th e authors disconnect also his persecution from Iconoclasm att ributing it to his participation along with the ecumenical patriarch Constantine II in conspiracy against the emperor (p 234-239) Finally they emphasize several times the compilative character of the Vita and its unreliability as historical source of that period (p 89-90 208 234-239 300-302)

Extremely interesting are the references to Cyprus Th e authors disagree with the Iconoclastsrsquo att ribution to Epiphanios of Cyprus of the texts which have been connected with his name -they att ribute these texts to the Docetist Epiphanides of Cyprus- (p 46 note 172) but they suppose that Epiphanios in the fourth century was defi nitely not in favor of icons (p 44-8) Th ey att ribute the text of the Miracles of holy Th erapon most possible to Andrew of Crete (p 21) and they characterize the references of Constantine of Constantia in the Acts of the VII Ecumenical Council regarding the divine punishment of the

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

Iconoclasts of Cyprus as ldquotoposrdquo andor later legendary additions to the Acts (p 210-211) Regarding the part of the Vita of the holy Stephen the Younger who dictated to his monks the districts of the Byzantine empire (Cherson southern Italy etc) which allegedly resisted the iconoclast Byzantine emperor and off ered a secure shelter to the Iconodules they prove that we are faced with legendary information (p 234-235) since other and more reliable sources demonstrate that these regions remained loyal to the imperial orders3

Regarding to the Cypriot iconoclast and ecumenical patriarch Paul they reject the arguments who want him as the person who proposed his successor Tarasios (p 264) Th eir reference that the only reason that the Council of Hiereia (754) was not characterized as ldquoecumenicalldquo was the absence of the papal representatives (p 275 114 and note 140) leads us to a diff erent suggestion the hypothesis that bishops of Cyprus were present and endorsed the iconoclastic policy of the Byzantine emperor

Although it is not possible to comment on all aspects presented in such a comprehensive work of 918 pages we will express our opinion only on certain of these As has been observed by other scholars -and admitt ed by the writers themselves- (p 7) inevitably the book draws more att ention to some aspects than others the economic history and the political pa-rameters of Iconoclasm are overemphasized4 while the theological dog-

matic and spiritual background is downplayed the writers underline the Bulgarian danger which they consider as crucial (p 366-367) regarding the emergence of Iconoclasm5 On the other hand the discussion of build-ings dated to the iconoclast era would be well-rounded and complete if the relevant painted monuments of that period on Peloponnese and the islands of the Aegean and Cyprus had been included6 Regarding the pre-sented monuments whose iconic presentations were covered by plaster or replaced by crosses no mention is made of the church of Holy David (Latomou-Monastery) in Th essalonike the mosaics of which according to Byzantine sources were covered with plaster during the iconoclast era and therefore preserved7

Th e reference of the authors that anxieties regarding the widespread of icons were already expressed by the churchmen in the Canons of the Quinisext Council (p 772-799) needs further and more solid research In connection with Canon C ldquoTh erefore we order that henceforth there shall in no way be made pictures whether they are in paintings or in what way so ever which att ract the eye and corrupt the mind and incite it to the enkindling of base pleasuresrdquo the authors conclude that according to this text icons in general

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history

were prohibited On our opinion the text appears to prohibit only icons with obscene scenes infl uenced possibly by Greco-Roman art on the con-trary the representation of Jesus himself is recommended in the phrase of the Canon LXXXII of the same Council ldquoChrist our God be henceforth ex-hibited in images instead of the ancient lambrdquo

Th e writers suppose (p 210) that the destruction of the iconic presenta-tions in the churches of Cyprus by the Iconoclasts according to the narra-tion of the bishop of Constantia Constantine which was preserved in the texts of the Council of 787 has to be understood in the frame of later com-pilations and exaggerated narrations Th e problem with this specifi c narra-tion is that it does not occur in a saintrsquos Vita which was later falsifi ed but in the formal Acts of the Council8 which report actual conversations taking place during the Synodrsquos (787) meeting and have the historical value of al-most contemporaneous reports if such extreme incidents of destruction of iconic presentations never happened this would sound strange to the other members of the Council who would react On the contrary the testimony of the Cypriot bishop is recorded as a description of a usual fact and not of something unique and unprecedented Furthermore while the later addi-tions compilations and interpolations in the Vita of Stephen the Younger were exploited by the Iconodules and were included in the iconophile pro-paganda and the Vitas of further saints this specifi c reference was never used by the iconophile propaganda Consecutive emerges the question if the Iconodules falsifi ed also this text why didnrsquot they use it in their favor Th erefore if we have to suppose the falsifi cation of the Acts of the Council of 787 solid philological arguments would be necessary to be provided in order to prove such a hypothesis

Although the authors on the one hand argue that the extensive use of icons by the mass of the believers led the upper clergy to serious consideration and eff orts as the insertion of the above named Canons of the Quinisext Council in order to restrict the phenomenon and control the situation (p 772-799) on

the other hand they insist that Iconoclasm never faced a strong resistance in the population at large (p 790-791) Similarly while they argue that soldiery clergy and parts of the population supported Iconoclasm because it was linked with the victorious iconoclastic emperors against the enemies of the Byzantine state (p 382) a fact proven also by the success of the administrative offi cials army and the clerics who managed to cancel the initial works of the VIIth Ecumenical Council in 786 (p 269ff ) they conclude in another chapter of their study that Iconoclasm was never a massive movement but began rather as a confrontation within the clergy (p 400-401)

In such a study where the authors proclaim that they challenge and interrogate several of the established assumptions the reader is surprisingly faced with older theories of the ldquoAnglo-Saxon-schoolrdquo regarding the political situation of Cyprus adopted by the writers these theories were formulated in the 50s during the Cy-priotsrsquo anti-British struggle and led to the so-called theory of the ldquoEteocypriotsrdquo9 and ldquocondominiumrdquo10 uncritically transferring legal terms of the 20th century used by Great Britain for its colonies and applying them to the medieval society of Byzantium Several Byzantinists (R Browning11 W Kaegi12 N Oikonomakes13

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Ev Chrysos14 Sp Vryonis15 Dem Triantaphyllopoulos16 Ch Chotzakoglou17) numismatists (D Metcalf18) and Arabologists (B Christides19) have underlined that the literary sources and the archaeological evidence do not support a ldquocon-dominiumrdquo in Cyprus Furthermore the sharing of Cyprusrsquo tax-revenues on the ground of a Treaty between Arabs and the central Byzantine administration does not prove a shared administration of the island Is this actually the reason which led the writers to use next to the term of ldquocondominiumrdquo also the weaker one of ldquoequilibriumrdquo (p 358)

Th e writers argue ndashand also agree- that the banishment of Iconodules to a remote place demonstrated that the place of banishment however remote was under normal Byzantine administrative control (p 239) If that is the banishment of Iconodules to Cyprus (p 242 and note 367) indicates also that Cyprus was under the Byzantine control Furthermore the authors argue that St Willibaldrsquos journey ndashwhich included Cyprus- was planned so as to call at a series of safe harbors under Byzantine control (p 515) Surprisingly they do not include Cyprus in the lands of the Byzantine empire (p 732 Map 6 and p 725 Map 5)

Furthermore while on the one hand they note that the threat of being banished to Cyprus included the danger of death because of the Arabic raids (p 242-243 and note 367) on the other hand they describe a peaceful coexistence and sharing of power between Arabs and Byzantines in Cyprus (p 358 457) While lead seals of Cyprus refer to offi cers with military duties (eg drouggarioi candidatoi cleisourarchai as well as spatharioi and stratelates) 20 (p 762 note 134) the writers declare that Cyprus had a Byzantine presence of non-military character (p 762) While on the basis of evidence from Curium the writers declare that especially aft er 630 the numismatic fi nds consist almost exclusively of coins minted in Constantinople (p 485) they note in another part of their book that since 685 the island was under the ldquocondominiumrdquo between Arabs and Byzantines (p 457) despite the absence of similar Arabic coins as well as Arabic pott ery (p 496-9) and despite the agreement of previous specialists21 on the matt er

To the undoubted weaknesses of the volume we have to include the Index Either some geographical names are totally absent (eg Monastery of Katharon in Constantinople (p 290) Monastery of the Holy Virgin in Symbola (p 314) the mountain Olympos etc) as well as titles (eg archon (p 761-2) furthermore the same persons are found in the Index under diff erent entries without any connection registered (eg Epiphanios of Constantia and Epiphanios of Cyprus) in other cases terms and geographical names are only partially registered (eg ldquoCyprusrdquo is mentioned in the book beyond its fi ve entries additionally in the pages 210 322 497 501 504 505 507 511 517 762 the Vita of St Stephen can be also found in the pages 234 and 235 Epiphanios of Constantia is also mentioned in the pages 45 46 47 and 52)

Summarizing it could be difficult to argue that the aim of the writ-ers was not realized Several established theories have been challenged and persuasively revised while for several others the seed of doubt has been plant encouraging further work and research in this direction Due

to their laborious work the fruits of their investigation invite further re-search on the background of the Iconoclasm and the manner of its impo-sition Many of their more adventurous suggestions will engage the aca-demic community and encourage further study in order to enlighten the phenomenon of Iconoclasm perhaps the most prominent controversy in Byzantine history
