>Issue 11: Baghdad, Byzantium, Aachen, and Winchester: Early Medieval
>Reforms and Reformers
>
>The late eighth and ninth centuries saw cultural and intellectual
>revivals and renaissances that seemed to have proceeded from East to
>West.  All are related in some way to each other, but they are seldom
>examined in the same context.  Harun al-Rachid, Charlemagne, and
>Alfred all sponsored reforms in their respective socieities, were in
>contact in some way with one another (or in Alfred's case, with
>Charlemagne's grandson), and may have influenced one another. In
>Byzantium c. 800 a renaissance was also occurring during the
>iconoclast controversies under Empress Irene.  The Empress was able
>to maintain contacts with al-Rachid and Charlemagne.
>
><i>The Heroic Age</i> invites submissions exploring these rulers, the
>cultural revivals that occurred under their reigns, the factors
>leading to those revivals, the long term results, and any possible
>interplay or influence among them.
