In commemoration of this event a group of distinguished scholars met in 1991 at the castle of Hernen in the Netherlands with the aim of discussing various issues and aspects of Theophano's background in Byzantium, her life in the West, and her impact on society at the turn of the first millennium. This volume brings together in carefully edited form a group of the papers and proceedings from 1991. Each contribution helps to place Theophano in a broad cultural and historical context. The historical, intellectual and artistic background of her age are described, and there are essays on her education, her surroundings, and on the image of noble women in the middle ages."/><meta property="og:title" content="The Empress Theophano"/><meta property="og:type" content="book"/><meta property="og:site_name" content="Google Books"/><meta property="og:image" content="https://books.google.com.sg/books/content?id=N9Nf-GHTgnEC&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&edge=curl&imgtk=AFLRE71g2NBMulUPLTUnhX5HypUqarQSI_O7SDleh-_Fen_DeRYrl39MyvGvO03lDi22MLQF_IKVFYKM7eNdL51yFTC6d_t5KShkwGmchlTmP3f1kOw5_PnhL7A3NAaSmx9JljmL6Uyw"/><link rel="image_src" href="https://books.google.com.sg/books/content?id=N9Nf-GHTgnEC&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&edge=curl&imgtk=AFLRE71g2NBMulUPLTUnhX5HypUqarQSI_O7SDleh-_Fen_DeRYrl39MyvGvO03lDi22MLQF_IKVFYKM7eNdL51yFTC6d_t5KShkwGmchlTmP3f1kOw5_PnhL7A3NAaSmx9JljmL6Uyw"/><script></script><style>#gbar,#guser{font-size:13px;padding-top:1px !important;}#gbar{height:22px}#guser{padding-bottom:7px !important;text-align:right}.gbh,.gbd{border-top:1px solid #c9d7f1;font-size:1px}.gbh{height:0;position:absolute;top:24px;width:100%}@media all{.gb1{height:22px;margin-right:.5em;vertical-align:top}#gbar{float:left}}a.gb1,a.gb4{text-decoration:underline !important}a.gb1,a.gb4{color:#00c !important}.gbi .gb4{color:#dd8e27 !important}.gbf .gb4{color:#900 !important} #gbar { padding:.3em .6em !important;}</style></head><body class=""><div id=gbar><nobr><a target=_blank class=gb1 href="https://www.google.com.sg/search?tab=pw">Search</a> <a target=_blank class=gb1 href="https://www.google.com.sg/imghp?hl=en&tab=pi">Images</a> <a target=_blank class=gb1 href="https://maps.google.com.sg/maps?hl=en&tab=pl">Maps</a> <a target=_blank class=gb1 href="https://play.google.com/?hl=en&tab=p8">Play</a> <a target=_blank class=gb1 href="https://www.youtube.com/?tab=p1">YouTube</a> <a target=_blank class=gb1 href="https://news.google.com/?tab=pn">News</a> <a target=_blank class=gb1 href="https://mail.google.com/mail/?tab=pm">Gmail</a> <a target=_blank class=gb1 href="https://drive.google.com/?tab=po">Drive</a> <a target=_blank class=gb1 style="text-decoration:none" href="https://www.google.com.sg/intl/en/about/products?tab=ph"><u>More</u> »</a></nobr></div><div id=guser width=100%><nobr><span id=gbn class=gbi></span><span id=gbf class=gbf></span><span id=gbe></span><a target=_top id=gb_70 href="https://www.google.com/accounts/Login?service=print&continue=https://books.google.com.sg/books%3Fid%3DN9Nf-GHTgnEC%26q%3DHoly%26source%3Dgbs_word_cloud_r%26hl%3Den&hl=en&ec=GAZACg" class=gb4>Sign in</a></nobr></div><div class=gbh style=left:0></div><div class=gbh style=right:0></div><div role="alert" style="position: absolute; left: 0; right: 0;"><a href="https://books.google.com.sg/books?id=N9Nf-GHTgnEC&q=Holy&source=gbs_word_cloud_r&hl=en&output=html_text" title="Screen reader users: click this link for accessible mode.

to marry the Ottonian emperor Otto II, died as empress of the Ottonian Empire in Nijmegen in 991. In commemoration of this event a group of distinguished scholars met in 1991 at the castle of Hernen in the Netherlands with the aim of discussing various issues and aspects of Theophano's background in Byzantium, her life in the West, and her impact on society at the turn of the first millennium. This volume brings together in carefully edited form a group of the papers and proceedings from 1991. Each contribution helps to place Theophano in a broad cultural and historical context. The historical, intellectual and artistic background of her age are described, and there are essays on her education, her surroundings, and on the image of noble women in the middle ages.","my_library_url":"https://www.google.com/accounts/Login?service=print\u0026continue=https://books.google.com.sg/books%3Fop%3Dlibrary\u0026hl=en","is_magazine":false,"is_public_domain":false},{"enableUserFeedbackUI":true,"pseudocontinuous":true,"is_cobrand":false,"sign_in_url":"https://www.google.com/accounts/Login?service=print\u0026continue=https://books.google.com.sg/books%3Fid%3DN9Nf-GHTgnEC%26q%3DHoly%26source%3Dgbs_word_cloud_r%26hl%3Den\u0026hl=en","isEntityPageViewport":false,"showViewportOnboarding":false,"showViewportPlainTextOnboarding":false},{"page":[{"pid":"PA115","highlights":[{"X":363,"Y":151,"W":35,"H":17},{"X":198,"Y":227,"W":35,"H":15},{"X":348,"Y":284,"W":35,"H":15},{"X":99,"Y":340,"W":35,"H":16},{"X":313,"Y":340,"W":35,"H":16},{"X":297,"Y":393,"W":36,"H":17},{"X":423,"Y":442,"W":27,"H":15},{"X":420,"Y":819,"W":27,"H":13}],"flags":8,"order":136,"vq":"Holy"}]},null,{"number_of_results":36,"search_results":[{"page_id":"PR6","page_number":"vi","snippet_text":"... \u003cb\u003eHoly\u003c/b\u003e Roman Empire - Biography - Congress . 3. \u003cb\u003eHoly\u003c/b\u003e Roman Empire - Relations - Byzantine Empire - Congress . 4.
