This one-volume translation, with commentary and introduction, brings together three important works—Advice to the Emperor, Dialogue on Political Science, and Description of the Hagia Sophia—which cast light on the generally neglected politics and ideology of early Byzantium. No complete modern English translation of any of these three works exists and they each highlight the clash of political and religious ideology of the period.
