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! I’ve been diving deep into the world of cinnamon lately and I gotta say, the debate between Ceylon vs Saigon cinnamon really caught my attention. If you’ve ever found yourself standing in the spice aisle wondering which cinnamon to choose, this post is for you.

    So, what’s the deal between Ceylon and Saigon cinnamon? While they might seem like they’re just two variations of the same thing, they actually have some pretty distinct differences that can make or break a recipe! First up, Ceylon cinnamon, often called "true cinnamon," is milder and more delicate in flavor. It’s less spicy than Saigon, making it perfect for sweeter dishes or if you're someone who enjoys a more subtle cinnamon experience.

    On the other hand, Saigon cinnamon is much bolder and spicier. It packs a punch with its intense, slightly sweet yet fiery flavor. This makes it ideal for those who love to add a bold cinnamon kick to their foods. However, there's an important health consideration: Saigon cinnamon contains higher levels of coumarin, a compound that can be harmful in large amounts. This is something you should definitely keep in mind if you’re consuming a lot of cinnamon regularly.

    As you can see, the Ceylon vs Saigon cinnamon debate isn’t just about flavor—it's about health and what works best for your needs. Personally, I’ve been gravitating toward Ceylon cinnamon in my daily coffee and smoothies. But for some intense baking recipes, nothing beats the richness of Saigon.

    What’s your go-to cinnamon? Let me know in the comments!

    Hey folks! I’ve been experimenting with different cinnamons recently, and I wanted to share my findings with you all because I know many of you are just as curious about the Ceylon vs Saigon cinnamon debate as I am.

    For starters, you might be asking, "What’s the difference between Saigon vs Ceylon cinnamon, anyway?" Well, they both come from different types of cinnamon trees, and they offer distinct tastes and benefits. Ceylon cinnamon is lighter, smoother, and a little more subtle. It’s perfect for anyone who likes a soft, balanced flavor in their dishes. Think of it as the sophisticated, mellow cousin in the cinnamon family.

    Then, there’s Saigon cinnamon. This one is a game-changer. It’s bold, it’s spicy, and it’s perfect for those who love a kick. If you’ve ever used Saigon cinnamon in your cooking or baking, you’ll know what I’m talking about. It’s not shy, and its intense flavor really stands out in recipes like pies, hot chocolate, or even curries.

    However, I do want to mention something that a lot of people overlook: Saigon cinnamon contains more coumarin than Ceylon cinnamon. While that’s totally fine for occasional use, excessive consumption of coumarin can be harmful. That’s why I personally reserve Saigon cinnamon for recipes where I really want that punch of flavor and use Ceylon for my daily needs. It’s all about balance!

    In the end, the choice between Ceylon vs Saigon cinnamon really comes down to what you prefer in your food. But trust me, understanding these differences will make you a cinnamon connoisseur in no time. What about you? Do you have a favorite? Let’s talk about it!

    Hey there! I hope you’re all doing well.

    I have to ask—have you ever thought about what’s really in the cinnamon you’re using every day? I didn’t either, until I started reading about lead contamination in cinnamon. It turns out, many brands of cinnamon contain harmful levels of lead, and we unknowingly consume it in our foods. It was a huge wake-up call for me, and I think it’s time we all started paying closer attention to the cinnamon we buy.

    I want to share with you what I’ve learned about lead in cinnamon and how to avoid it. For a while, I had no idea that some cheaper cinnamon brands could contain lead, but as I researched, I found that lead is often found in Cassia cinnamon (the most common type). That’s right—the same cinnamon you might be sprinkling on your coffee could be dangerous!

    But don't worry; I’ve found a solution. There’s plenty of lead-free cinnamon available, and I’ve listed the best safe cinnamon brands for you to check out.

    These brands prioritize your health by testing their products for lead, so you can enjoy all the benefits of cinnamon without the risk.

    I know how important it is to find quality ingredients for my kitchen, and now I’m on a mission to share that knowledge with you. If you want to learn more about the dangers of lead in cinnamon and find out which brands are completely safe, head over to my blog. Trust me, you don’t want to miss out on this crucial information! Stay safe and healthy!
