Maximus of Tyre 16.5 HE STUDY of the reception of an author in Byzantium can shed light on particular periods of Byzantine culture, the nature of some of its own texts,1 and the constitution of the corpus of ‘classical’ authors that has come down to us.2 Accordingly, the Byzantine study of Xenophon3 will be treated here as an element of Macedonian culture, sharing some of its features and marked by its politics.
