“As a sometime student of Byzantine history, but more importantly as an Orthodox Christian, I have had occasion to study, in some detail, the life of the Ethnomartyr Constantine, last Emperor of the Byzantines. His historical importance, as the great figure who ushered out the Byzantine Empire, is perhaps best compared to that of the Great Constantine, Equal–of–the–Apostles, who ushered in the Byzantine Age. But his heroic defense of Constantinople, of the city which Photios Kontoglou has called the venerable Ark of Christianity and Orthodoxy, his tragic struggle with the choice between political expediency and loyalty to his Faith, and his pious, gentle Christian character—these things lift him up as a man of spiritual moment for all times.”
