Translated Texts for Historians
This series is designed to meet the needs of students of ancient and medi-
eval history and others who wish to broaden their study by reading source
material, but whose knowledge of Latin or Greek is not sufficient to allow
them to do so in the original language. Many important Late Imperial and
Dark Age texts are currently unavailable in translation and it is hoped that
TTH will help to fill this gap and to complement the secondary literature
in English which already exists. The series relates principally to the period
300–800 AD and includes Late Imperial, Greek, Byzantine and Syriac texts
as well as source books illustrating a particular period or theme. Each vol-
ume is a self-contained scholarly translation with an introductory essay on
the text and its author and notes on the text indicating major problems of
interpretation, including textual difficulties.
