[Michael Edward Stewart @mikeaztec28]

With the arrival of Leonora Neville’s epilogue, I’m happy to share that the manuscript for my new edited volume, Portraits of Generalship & Authority in the Age of Justinian and Beyond, is now complete.
A heartfelt thank you to all the contributing authors!
The TOC is below

[Sean Strong @stros006]

@mikeaztec28 I have online versions of Companion to Procopius and Companion to Ancient Iranian Warfare but prefer physical volumes to read. These would just be additions to my library for future research

[Sean Strong @stros006]

Does anyone have a discount code for #Brill publishing? Looking to make a few purchases online but a discount would certainly help this PhD student lol

[Sean Strong @stros006]

@chrysoboullon Are these physical versions?

[Yannis Stouraitis @YStouraitis]

If you happen to be in Tübingen on Thursday and you have nothing better to do, I will be giving a seminar talk on Byzantine civil wars at the TBNS.
