What is The Sixth Century: End or Beginning?, (Byzantina Australiensia) about?

This paperback was originally published as Volume 10 in the series Byzantina Australiensia, Australian Association for Byzantine Studies, Department of Modern Greek, University of Sydney, Sydney nsw 2006, Australia, Brisbane 1996. The twenty-two papers contained in this volume are intended not as published conference proceedings but rather as a collection of essays focused on a theme. Indeed, although the majority were delivered at the conference held by the Australian Association for Byzantine Studies in Brisbane in 1995, six of them, those by Barry Baldwin, Daniel Callam, John Chryssavgis, Michael Maas, Mary Cunningham and Karl-Heinz Uthemann, were not read on that occasion, but were offered by their authors as contributions to a study of the sixth century and the extent to which it can be viewed as an end or a beginning. The choice of this theme is partly an obvious one, given that the preponderance of Byzantine scholarship in Australia focuses on late antiquity and the transition to the Byzantine Middle Ages. Partly, however, it offers a timely occasion to reflect on the strides that have been made in our understanding of the sixth century over the past three or four decades. D
