Stefan Dušan: Encyclopedia II - New Rome - New Rome in the East

New Rome - Byzantium. As Nova Roma, Byzantine writers contrasted their city from the "old" Rome by pointing out how Byzantium (Constantinople) had always been a Christian city, while Old Rome had pagan roots. Polemical writings after the Great Schism even claimed that Old Rome was too stained by the blood of martyrs to lead Christianity.

Stefan Dušan: Encyclopedia II - Zealots Thessalonica - Ascending to power

The Zealots seized power in 1342 and after driving out the supporters of Cantacuzenus, they setup their own government in the city. The possessions of the aristocracy were confiscated.

The political Zealots were therefore enemies of the church Zealots. Cantacuzenus wrote: They roused up the people against the aristocracy, and for two or t ...
