1、“If one had but a single glance to give the world, one should gaze on Constantinople,” marveled Alphonse de Lamartine, the 19th-century French writer and politician.

2、 15 minutes.First, Im going to give a brief introduction of the empire. It was founded in 395AC and declined after 1453AC, and its also called the Eastern Roman Empire.

It was the longest lasted monarchy country in the ancient and middle aged Europe.Secondly, about the history.
4、 The history of Byzantine Empire can be divided into 4 parts. The Founding. The Early History. The Golden Era and The Doom.First, the founding. In 395AC, the Roman Empire split into two parts, the eastern part and the western part. The Eastern part was also called the Byzantine Empire, the name came

Byzantium culture appeared at that time and to some extent, it protected the ancient Greek and Roman cultures from been ruined.拜占庭文化内容丰富，体系完备，发展水平较高，因此在文化发展缓慢的中古欧洲发挥积极作用，直接促进斯拉夫世界的文明化，加速斯拉夫各民族国家的发展，并形成以东正教为核心的东欧世界。拜占庭

12、然中得到创作的灵感，把宇宙万物的自然状态视为美的源泉，真实、和谐、合乎自然的比例、人的天赋情感都作为美的标淮。但是，拜占廷艺术却认为外在的形象是次要的，真实自然的形体是第二位的，艺术的核心在于表现某种抽象的精神和反映神圣的情感，艺术的目的是激发人的宗教灵感，因此，写实艺术道到拜占廷艺术家的藏视，而质朴简单的线条和色彩表现出来的抽象意义受到重视。比例可以失调，因为比例应该让位于线条；色彩可以不丰富，因为单调的色彩能够更明确地表现抽象的含义。艺术品不是用来进行直观欣赏，而是用来启发思想，通过“不重要的”艺术品进行思索，使人们寻找有形的艺术品深层隐藏的无形事物。基督教对拜占廷艺术的影响渗透到艺术构思
13、中，使拜占廷艺术的价值取向发生扭曲，移上帝至高无上至善至美思想指导下，现实世界成为罪恶的场所，人类背负着原罪和本罪的十字架，应该受到苦难的惩罚，因此，自然美变成现世丑，艺术美不是光明而是灰暗，不是微笑而是哭泣，不是和谐而足扭曲，不是平衡而是失衡，不是生动而是呆板，痛苦才是幸福和欢乐。在这样的艺术原则指导下，拜占廷艺术品都笼罩在阴郁的基督教气氛和朦胧的神秘色彩中。拜占廷艺术的这些特点背离了古典艺术的原则，但是，由于它是在古典艺术的基础土发展而来，因此，还继承某些古典艺术的传统，例如注意营造庄严神圣的氛围、利用古代艺术的表现手法和技术等。3从拜占庭人继承古典文化的内容上看，拜占庭学者特别重视古希腊
14、的哲学、文学和文学，重视罗马的法律和工程技术。在拜占庭帝国，荷马史济胜友人口妇幼皆知，能够大段背诵的人不在少数，因此许多作家在引用时不加说明而不至产生误解。拜占庭人常以正宗继承人的身份继承古罗马文化，他们不仅自称“罗马人”，而且在政治制度、基督教神学、法律和大型工程技术方面，忠实模仿继承，井有所发展创造。总结。拜占庭人使古典文化适合于中古社会生活，形成古典文化的特殊形式。拜占庭文化内容丰富，体系完备，发展水平较高，因此在文化发展缓慢的中古欧洲发挥积极作用，直接促进斯拉夫世界的文明化，加速斯拉夫各民族国家的发展，并形成以东正教为核心的东欧世界。拜占庭文化还对周围其他民族文化产生积极的影响，推动中古时期不同文化间的交流。拜占庭文化为中古晚期的西欧提供有利于未来发展的进步因素，在学术和艺术领域留下的宝贵遗产通过各种渠道传遍世界。占廷帝国的文化和宗教遗产至今仍然可以在俄罗斯、保加利亚、希腊等国家看到。在希腊的东正教圣地阿索斯山的20个自治修道院和拔摩岛的圣约翰修道院上，作为拜占廷帝国永存的象征，帝国的金底黑色双头鹰旗至今仍飘扬在这些修道院的上空中。3
