Summary:
Mostly Bulgarian medievalists explore issues critical to the functioning of church and state in Bulgaria from the sixth to the 15th centuries, and their intimate connection to similar phenomena in Byzantium. Among the topics are religious aspects of medieval state ideology in the European southeast, Byzantine fortresses to the south of the Hemus Mountains in the light of coin finds from the last decades of the sixth century, the perspective of the Bulgarian past in the court of Preslav about 900 AD, the first two centuries of the archbishopric of Ohrid, and the Athonite Slavs in the Middle Ages.
