Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In the autumn of 1072, a Bulgarian aristocrat named Georgi Voyteh assembled a network of boyars and municipal magnates across the Vardar and South Morava basins and set in motion the most serious challenge to Byzantine authority in the Balkans in a generation. The Bulgarian empire had been gone for fifty years. Voyteh intended to bring it back.The Uprising of Georgi Voyteh (1072-1073) reconstructs the full story of the Bulgarian uprising of 1072 - from the careful conspiracy that organised it to the coronation at Prizren that proclaimed it, from the military campaigns that briefly made it real to the catastrophe at Taonios that ended it. It traces the compound Byzantine disasters that created the window of opportunity: the destruction of the imperial field army at Manzikert, the fall of Bari to the Normans, the Pecheneg raids on the Danube, and the fiscal predations of the minister Nikephoritzes, whose grain monopolies and mandatory cash taxation converted Bulgarian provincial resentment into organised rebellion.At the centre of the story stands Constantine Bodin, the Dukljan prince crowned as Peter III, Tsar of the Bulgarians, whose captivity and eventual escape illuminate the human cost of imperial politics. Around him stand the conspirators, the loyalists, the mercenaries, and the historians whose fragmentary testimony is all that survives of a moment when an empire thought extinct almost lived again.
