The Blinded State - Historiographic Debates about Samuel Cometopoulos and His State (10th-11th Century)

This book offers a new approach to the late 10th- and early 11th-century state of Samuel. Mitko B. Panov deconstructs the Byzantine distorted image of the Samuel's polity that was recycled by the Balkan elites of the medieval and modern periods and exploited for their political agendas and territorial aspirations.
