Porfirogênito era a designação dada aos filhos dos imperadores bizantinos (basileus) nascidos na Sala Púrpura do Palácio imperial, quando seus pais estavam no poder imperial. Com este nosso trabalho, pretendemos esboçar algumas características culturais do império, que influenciaram os porfirogênitos nos séculos X a XII, mais especificamente com os exemplos de Constantino VII Porfirogênito (913-959) e da princesa bizantina Anna Comnena (1083-1153/4), ambos autores de obras historiográficas que têm influências de seus estudos e que são instrumentos de afirmação de suas dinastias. Podemos notar, portanto um processo histórico continuado de um florescimento cultural, que remonta tanto à dinastia macedônica quanto à dinastia Comnena.
