Translated works of Nicholas Mesarites, an ecclesiastic, who provides a different view of Byzantium at crisis point: the descent of the Byzantine Empire into factionalism, the loss of its capital Constantinople in 1204 to the armies of the fourth crusade, and its eventual reconstitution in exile as the Empire of Nicaea.
