The period of Byzantine iconoclasm remains in many ways a "Dark Age". In this volume, the author continues her re-examination of a key source for the time, the Life of Stephen the Younger, aiming to establish a solid methodology for reading a hagiographical text as a historical source. She includes a systematic literary analysis to illuminate how the author treated his subject matter. Amongst other conclusions, the study shows how the historical presentation of the period was consciously shaped by the patriarchate of Constantinople in the years 787-815, in order to affirm the independence of the Church from imperial power.
