Abstract

The Byzantine Court Ceremonial in the Interpretation of the Chroniclers of the Fourth Crusade and the Consequences of this Cultural Conflict in the Reduction of Constantinople from 1204

This article wants to analyze the way the chroniclers of the fourth crusade perceived the court ceremonial from Constantinople. The main objective of this study is to show that the anti-Byzantine propaganda was something premeditated even on cultural field. The presentation of the Byzantine court ceremonial in the Latin sources from the papacy or other political factors from the Occident was tendentious and interested. All their anti-Byzantine propaganda had a certain target: the reduction of Constantinople. The accusations that the Latin chroniclers developed against Byzantium before 1204 disappear after their victory from the beginning of the 13th century. The purpose for this silence is to justify their actions and to explain that it was their right to possess the enormous and single Byzantine wealth.

Keywords: ceremonial, chroniclers, reduction, rituals, costumes, crusaders, title.
