Here at DBL (Database of Byzantine Literati) we map literary performances and individual literati in Byzantium. Focusing on the period between the eighth and middle of the thirteenth centuries, DBL allows the user to search, export and visualise connections between individuals and their movement in space and social strata.
DBL is part of the ERC-funded project PAIXUE: Classicising Learning in Medieval Imperial Systems: Cross-cultural Approaches to Byzantine Paideia and Xue (ERC CoG 726371, 2017–2022)
