Synopsis
Contributing Authors

Dimitri Theodoridis, who has had a fascination with Byzantine lead bullae since he was young, has amassed an impressive collection of over 1,300 seals. He carefully selected these seals based on their quality of preservation and historical significance. For this particular book, he decided to focus on around 220 bullae that had a second, transmissible name on the seal legend. The majority of the seals in his collection have not been published before, and many of them have no other known examples. This collection sheds light on Byzantine administration during the reign of the last Macedonians and up to the era of Alexis Comnenus.

Dimitri Theodoridis s’est interesse des sa jeunesse aux bulles de plomb byzantines. Il a constitue une imposante collection qui compte maintenant plus de 1 300 sceaux, en s’efforcant de les selectionner pour leur qualite de conservation et pour leur interet historique. Environ 220 bulles ont ete choisies pour ce livre sur le critere de la presence sur la legende du sceau d’un second nom, transmissible. La majeure partie de la collection est inedite et beaucoup de plombs ne comportent pas de pieces paralleles. Les fonctionnaires et les familles vivant sur les marges orientales de l’Empire, les Apokapai, les Brachamioi ou les Marchapsaboi, sont particulierement bien representes. Certaines pieces ont une portee historique exceptionnelle, telles les deux bulles au nom de Kakikios Aniotes que l’on peut attribuer a l’ancien roi d’Armenie, Gagik, ou celle qui nous fait connaitre un taxiarque de l’actuelle ville de Nigde. Cet ouvrage contribue aussi a notre connaissance de l’administration byzantine sous les derniers Macedoniens jusqu’au regne d’Alexis Comnene.
