Description - The Alexiad (Annotated) by Elizabeth a S Dawes
This annotated edition is translated by Elizabeth A.S. Dawes. Anna's description of 11th century CE Byzantium, which covers not only major events but also many physical descriptions and other details such as protocols and clothing, has become an invaluable source for modern historians. Anna was likewise sharp that her work present an objective perspective of events, in spite of the fact that she herself admits the Alexiad is to some degree prejudiced, or possibly an incomplete biography of her father.
