A proposito di questo titolo

What if the legacy of Rome—its laws, its literature, its very identity—had been completely erased from history? In the turbulent centuries after the fall of the Western Roman Empire, that was not a hypothetical question, but a terrifying likelihood bearing down from the east. This episode charts the desperate, centuries-long defense mounted by a single city: Constantinople. We explore how the Eastern Roman Empire, which we call Byzantium, became a fortified firewall against overwhelming invasions. As Western Europe fragmented into dark ages, Constantinople stood as an impregnable bastion of Roman law, Greek learning, and Christian faith, buying the fractured West the precious time it needed to eventually rebuild. You will discover how the survival of classical knowledge and the political stability of the West hinged on the fate of this one magnificent city, and understand why the story of Rome’s fall is incomplete without the story of Byzantium’s defiant stand. #ByzantineEmpire #Constantinople #FallOfRome #DarkAges #Justinian #Heraclius #MedievalHistory #RomanLegacy Hosted by Ibnul Jaif Farabi.
