Тя оставя най-старото средновековно описание на Филипопол и областта

Византийската принцеса, писател и историк – Анна Комнина, е родена на 1 декември 1083 г. Тя е дъщеря на византийския император Алексий I и Ирина Дукина, дъщеря на Андроник Дука и Мария Българска, внучка на българския цар Иван Владислав от династията Комитопули. С написването на своята 15-томна „Алексиада“ става първата известна жена историк. Тя оставя най-старото средновековно описание на Филипопол и областта. През 1096 г. оттук минават участниците в първия кръстоносен поход и отбелязват Филипопол като един от най-богатите византийски градове. Особено интересни за историографията са сведенията в „Алексиада“ за голямото въстание на пловдивските павликяни през 1084-1086 (въстанието на Травъл).

Анна е първото от общо девет деца на византийския император Алексий I и Ирина Дукина, дъщеря на Андроник Дука и Мария Българска, внучка на българския цар Иван Владислав от династията Комитопули.

Въпреки че в детството и младините си Анна с огромен интерес изучава история, математика, природни науки и гръцка философия, нейните родители категорично ѝ забраняват да изучава античната поезия, чийто възхвали за порочните езически богове, са неприлични за млада жена с благородническо потекло. Анна обаче се възпротивява на забраната и тайно от всички чете и изучава древногръцките произведения. Заради тази своя упоритост и борбеност тя става една от най-образованите личностти на своето време.

На 14 години се омъжва за младия Никифор Вриений - благородник с титлата кесар и военачалник в армията на императора. Бракът им продължава 40 години и двамата имат четири деца.

Още като дете Анна мечтае един ден да седне на трона. Тази мечта постепенно се превръща в амбиция и въпреки, че наследяването на трона е забранено за жени, Анна започва малко по малко да събира съюзници и влияние сред аристокрацията, за да постави ако не себе си, то поне своя съпруг Никифор начело на Византийската империя. Анна започва да прави всичко възможно, за да попречи на брат си Йоан, който е законен наследник на династията, да стане император. Императрица Ирина също е на нейна страна и използва цялото си влияние, за да убеди Алексий да промени избора си на престолонаследник в полза на съпруга на Анна. Императорът обаче твърдо стои зад своя избор и не отстъпва пред нейните претенции за трона. Вероятно това е продиктувано от желанието му да продължи своята династия, защото в случай че Никифор Вриений бъде коронясан, то той ще даде начало на нова династия – тази на Вриениите. Заради това след смъртта на Алексий през 1118 г. Йоан е законно коронясан за император Йоан II Комнин. В отговор на това Анна и съпругът ѝ приемат титлите Наследници на Византийския трон и организират заговор срещу новия император. Въпреки разлики в източниците, след съпоставяне на хронологията на сибитията повечето историци са почти сигурни, че планът на Анна е да убият Йоан по време на погребалната церемония на Алексий. В последния момент обаче, Никифор се отказва от идеята да участва в убийството на законния император. По този повод по-късно, дълбоко разочарована от постъпката на съпруга си, Анна отбелязва: „Природата трябва да е сменила половете ни, защото на него най-щеше да му отива да е жена“. Вследвие от проваления заговор Анна губи всичката си собственост, статута си на принцеса и бива заточена в Кехаритоменския манастир, основан преди години от майка ѝ – императрица Ирина. Предателят пък Вриений става най-близкият и доверен сановник на Йоан Втори.

В манастира, приключила с амбициите си към трона, Анна продължава да развива личността си с философия и история. Тя е запленена и изучава в дълбочина Аристотеловото учение. Интелектът и знанията си тя демонстрира в своите 5 творби. В тях личат огромните ѝ познания в сферите на философията, литературата, граматиката, теологията, астрономията и медицината и затова историците са склонни да простят малките грешки, които допуска при някои цитати от Омир и Библията в своя най-голям труд — Алексиада.

    Hey everyone! If you’ve been using regular cinnamon, it’s time to upgrade to Ceylon cinnamon—the true cinnamon that’s packed with flavor and benefits! I recently made the switch, and I’m so glad I did. If you haven’t tried Ceylon cinnamon from Sri Lanka, you’re in for a treat. It’s a total game-changer for your recipes and your health!

    Unlike the usual cassia cinnamon, which can be harsh and bitter, Ceylon cinnamon has a smoother, more delicate flavor that really enhances both sweet and savory dishes. Whether you’re sprinkling it on your morning oats or adding it to a curry, it brings a warmth and complexity you won’t get with regular cinnamon. I personally love using Ceylon cinnamon powder in my smoothies and baked goods—its subtle sweetness makes everything taste amazing.

    But it’s not just about the taste! Ceylon cinnamon comes with a ton of health benefits. It’s packed with antioxidants that help fight inflammation, improve digestion, and even regulate blood sugar levels. Since I started adding Ceylon cinnamon to my diet, I’ve noticed better digestion and more steady energy throughout the day. It’s amazing how something as simple as Ceylon cinnamon sticks or powder can make such a big difference!

    So, where to buy Ceylon cinnamon? I’ve found some great online stores that offer Ceylon cinnamon straight from Sri Lanka, and often they have it on sale! Whether you prefer Ceylon cinnamon sticks for brewing tea or powder for your baking, there are tons of options available. I recommend looking for high-quality, organic products to get the best possible cinnamon for your health.

    If you’re ready to enjoy the benefits of true cinnamon, don’t wait! Make the switch to Ceylon cinnamon today—you won’t regret it!

    Hey everyone! I just had to share my love for Ceylon cinnamon, also known as true cinnamon, which I discovered recently, and it’s quickly become my favorite spice. If you’ve been using the regular stuff, you might want to consider switching to Ceylon cinnamon from Sri Lanka—trust me, it’s worth it.

    The difference between Ceylon cinnamon and regular cinnamon (cassia) is huge. Ceylon cinnamon is much milder and sweeter, with a subtle flavor that doesn’t overpower your dishes. I’ve been using Ceylon cinnamon powder in my coffee, on my breakfast oats, and even in savory dishes like chili, and the flavor is just perfect. If you like a gentle, aromatic cinnamon, Ceylon is definitely the way to go.

    But it’s not just the flavor that sold me on Ceylon cinnamon—the benefits are amazing too! For starters, Ceylon cinnamon has lower levels of coumarin, a compound that can be harmful in large amounts and is found in most cassia cinnamon. Plus, it’s packed with antioxidants, helps balance blood sugar, and supports heart health. Since I started using it regularly, I’ve felt an improvement in my energy levels, and I don’t experience those afternoon sugar crashes anymore.

    Wondering where to buy Ceylon cinnamon? I found several online stores that sell Ceylon cinnamon sticks and powder sourced directly from Sri Lanka. They often have Ceylon cinnamon on sale, so you can stock up without breaking the bank. I’ve been getting mine from these trusted retailers, and the quality is always top-notch.

    If you’re ready to improve your health and elevate your cooking, I highly recommend trying Ceylon cinnamon. It’s the true cinnamon, and once you experience its flavor and benefits, you’ll never go back!
