Proceedings of the International Conference Vienna, September 12th - 15th 2012. In Memoriam Konstantinos Pitsakis (1944 - 2012) and Andreas Schminck (1947-2015). Vienna 2017, 405 pp. This volume about the history of the Ecumenical Patriarchate results from a congress, held in Vienna within the framework of research on the Register of the Patriarchate of Constantinople at the Division of Byzantine Research of the Austrian Academy of Sciences. Chronologically, these papers cover the (Byzantine) period from the 11th century onwards. The majority of the collected studies concern a crucial source: the Register of the Patriarchate of Constantinople. This includes more than 800 documents written between 1315 and 1402 by or for the Patriarchate and the “permanent Synod” of Constantinople, and is now held in the Austrian National Library, Cod. hist. gr. 47 and 48. Besides the Register, the evidence for the Patriarchate is confined to a small number of documents, synodical acts, and occasional references in narrative histories. However, the present volume brings two new texts to light. The focus of this volume is on the organization and administration of the Ecumenical Patriarchate, as well as on new biographical details of individual patriarchs. It also includes contributions devoted to the continuity of the Ecumenical Patriarchate and its new tasks in the early post-Byzantine period.

The Patriarch of Constantinople and the last days of Byzantium2017 •
Gregory III Mammê, pro-union patriarch of Constantinople between 1445 and 1459, has been neglected by historians. Because he fled from Constantinople after only five years in office and spent the rest of his life in exile in Rome, he might seem irrelevant to the development of events. This article will argue that his career is, on the contrary, very instructive. His actions will be placed in the context of the reaction of the late Byzantine elite to the predicament in which they found themselves in the last years before the fall of Constantinople. It will examine the patriarch’s participation in diplomatic initiatives to attract western help against the Ottomans, his efforts to fill certain roles that the emperor was unable to play and his ambivalence about relations with the Catholic Church. It will argue that Gregory’s actions typify those of his class at the time: a combination of heroic self-sacrifice, cynical diplomacy and calculated self-interest.

Sultan’s Clergy: The Orthodox Patriarchate of Constantinople between Serbian communities and Ottoman Government, 1797‑18132020 •
This article focuses on the activities of the Patriarchate of Constantinople and its prelates in Ottoman Serbia between 1797 and 1813. The Ottoman government tried to reform the organization of Ottoman Serbia immediately after the Ottoman-Russian-Austrian War of 1787‑1792. I argue that the Patriarchate was central in the re‑organization efforts. It was also an integral part of Ottoman policies to come to terms with the rebels when the revolt broke out in 1804. Focusing on the Patriarchate allow us to better appreciate how Ottoman power functioned, how relations were constructed on the field and how religion, authority and revolt were enmeshed.

The Patriarchate of Constantinople and the “Reform of the Synod” in the 18th Century Ottoman Context2019 •
The Orthodox Patriarchate of Constantinople went through a series of changes in the eighteenth century. By 1763 gerontismos was established, and the Patriarchal seal was divided into four. As such, the metropolitans of the Holy Synod gained considerable power in the administration of the Patriarchate vis-à-vis the Patriarchs. The so called “reform of the Synod” was more than a mere internal struggle among the clergymen of the Patriarchate and the Phanariots. It was rather related to the Empire-wide economic developments in connection to the transformation of social roles in the Ottoman society. In the eighteenth century the collaboration between the Ottoman administration and ecclesiastical institutions was in rise, and by the time gerontismos was established, the institutionalization of the Orthodox Church as part of Ottoman administration had been culminated.

Being Byzantine in the Post-1204 Empire of Constantinople: Continuity and Change (Part 1: Politics, Government, Church and Religion)2022 •
The impact of the Latin conquest of Constantinople has often been treated from either the perspective of the Western newcomers who established themselves in various Byzantine territories, or from the perspective of the Byzantines who left the regions that came under Latin control and who managed to establish themselves elsewhere (Nicaea, Epiros, Trebizond). In this contribution the momentous consequences of the Fourth Crusade are addressed from the perspective of those Byzantines that came under Latin rule. By zooming in on a selection of individuals and subgroups a picture is sketched of the varied Byzantine experience within the confines of the (Latin) Empire of Constantinople after 1204. Attention will be given to the various – political, religious, socio-economic and cultural – spheres of society. The focus is on the capital and the region around Constantinople, but other regions come into view as well (Thessaloniki, Adrianople, Philippopolis, Achaia/Morea, Attica, Beotia, Euobia, Crete, etc.). Chronologically this contribution is primarily limited to the period until the loss of Latin Constantinople in 1261).
