Byzantium & Friends | 58. The column and equestrian statue of Justinian, a landmark monument of Constantinople, with Elena Boeck Thursday Nov 11, 2021

A conversation with Elena Boeck (DePaul University) about her recent book The Bronze Horseman of Justinian in Constantinople: The Cross-Cultural Biography of a Mediterranean Monument (Cambridge University Press 2021).

We talk about the symbolism, history, and the engineering of this monument.
