Byzantine History

Nicephorus Gregoras was a Byzantine scholar, philosopher, and theologian who lived from approximately 1292 to 1360. His most significant work is the 37-volume Byzantine History, which serves as a crucial primary source for the 14th century. This history chronicles events in the Eastern Roman Empire from the Latin conquest in 1204 up to 1359. Gregoras's work supplements that of earlier historians and delves into the philosophical and theological debates of his time, including his involvement in controversies surrounding Hesychasm. His extensive Correspondence also offers valuable insights into prominent Byzantine figures of the era.1
