The Christian monk from Mesopotamia who penned the Zuqnin Chronicle in 775 knows of Pepin (Charlemagne's father) in distant Francia and calls him king of the Romans: "And over the Romans rules Pipinus (ܘܥܠ ܪܗ̈ܘܡܝܐ ܬܘܒ ܡܡܠܟ ܦܦܢܣ)".

I originally wrote this book in 2021 to make this essential language more accessible to historians and enthusiasts.

Now, in 2025, I am mid-way through a PhD transcribing and examining the financial accounts of 13th century Canterbury and have published two further books. By doing so, this emphasised how crucial Latin is to historical research.

Therefore, the time felt right to produce a revised edition reflecting that growth, offering an even clearer, more practical guide for anyone looking to engage directly with medieval sources.

Very excited that this is out! It'll be of interest to anyone who is interested in: 1) #nationhood & #nationalism; 2) the debate over Romanness in "#Byzantium"; & 3) critical #Marxist frameworks before & after capitalism. A short 🧵/1

In fact, the Balkan area, known also as the Illyricum was one of main recruiting grounds. And a birthplace for most third-fourth c emperors.
