Lecture by Dr. Yuri Stoyanov, School of Oriental and African Studies
The lecture will explore the far-reaching effect of the last great war of antiquity on the growing end times expectations and agitation in the contemporary Near East and Levant. In this long collision between Sasanian Persia and the East Roman (Byzantine) Empire during the early 7th century, the dramatic defining role of end time adversary attributed to the Sasanians in the messianic and apocalyptic scenarios of the period enjoyed a lasting after-life, which, along with their impact on later European Christian images and perceptions of pre-Islamic Persia, will be charted and illustrated in the lecture.
