The Great Palace of Constantinople is a historical book written by A.G. Paspates. The book provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the Great Palace of Constantinople, which was the residence of the Byzantine emperors for over 800 years. The book covers the history of the palace, from its construction in the fourth century to its destruction in the fifteenth century. It also includes detailed descriptions of the palace's architecture, layout, and decoration, as well as its role in the political and cultural life of the Byzantine Empire. The book is illustrated with numerous drawings and photographs, making it an invaluable resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the history of Byzantine art and architecture.1893. In the following account of the Palace of Constantinople, the Hippodrome, and the neighboring Augustaion, I often recall the difficulties of the task. Students of the Palace as it is presented in the latest works of Greek and Western writers, can form some idea of the confused nature of the subject, which, indeed, none admit more frequently than the writers themselves.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
