AB  - Fourteen Byzantine rulers is a translation of the Chronographia, which forms the principal source of the history of the Eastern Empire during the period (A.D. 976 - 1078) when Byzantium declined from a military power to an effete bureaucracy. The Christian scholar, Michael Psellus, who was adviser, friend and tutor to successive emperors, used his first-hand acquaintance with the politics of the imperial court to write a memoir of his own times. A keen student of Plato and the Greeks, he turned his account into a work of art which vividly illustrates the Byzantine way of life.
