Byzantine Narrative: Papers in Honour of Roger Scott

This paperback was originally published as Volume 16 in the series "Byzantina Australiensia", Australian Association for Byzantine Studies.
Edited by John Burke with Ursula Betka, Penelope Buckley, Kathleen Hay, Roger Scott and Andrew Stephenson.

Billed 'in Honour of Roger Scott', and marking his formal retirement from teaching, the XIVth was the largest ever conference of the Australian Association for Byzantine Studies. From this celebration in Melbourne on 13-15 August 2004 derive many of the forty-one papers presented here, including the honorand's keynote address. Other papers were volunteered by scholars from various countries who, learning of the forthcoming publication, asked to be included in what - despite Roger's protests - had effectively become the 'Festschrift' proposed, independently, by Penelope Buckley and others.
