This was Constantinople. The Byzantines called themselves Romans' and they called their capital the Second Rome . Turks took Constantinople in 1453, and the metropolitan in Moscow mourned the fall of 'the great Orthodoxy.' But Moscow picked comfort from this fall and staked out its own claim to orthodoxy. The ruler in Moscow began, to call himself the tsar. His new title harked back to tne Caesars of old Rome . Philotheus, a monk of Pskov, wrote a letter to the, tsar, saying how the First Rome had fallen, and the gates of the Second Rome had been hewn down by the axes of the infidel Turks. But the Third, New Rome shone in the universe 'more resplendent than the sun.' This was Moscow. The monk of Pskov ended this letter: 'For two Romes have fallen, but the Third stands, and a Fourth shall never be." ~from the Preface to The Three Romes.~ Rome of the Caesars, Constantinople of the Emperors, Moscow of the Tsars were also the Rome of St. Peter, the Constantinople of the Patriarchs, and the Moscow of the Orthodox Metropolitans. These were cities on earth that aspired to heaven, kingdoms that succeeded each other as standardbearers of Christianity from the fourth century on. This fascinating book weaves the past and present in a narrative that is sometimes harrowing, always vivid, and even, at times, amusing. Russell Fraser shows the reader each city as he himself saw it~alive in the present, each with an inherited sense of historical destiny. Fraser depicts their people~how they talk and eat and dress, how they now go, or don't go, to worship, how they play soccer or read books. He shuttles easily between today and yesterday, between today's Central Committee and Ivan the Great, between Turkish Istanbul and the golden Constantinople of Justinian, between today's Roman politics and the splendid Caesars. Great historical events, intellectual concerns, and artistic riches define the three Romes. Fraser goes beyond the facades, images, and myths to lay bare the three great psychologies still vying for the mind of man. The Three Romes is an utterly original book, at once a celebration of the past and an urbane guide to the present. scarce item. [currently selling on amazon for $150]. N° de réf. du vendeur 5302201
