James Heneage

    James Heneage nutre un fascino duraturo per la storia, in particolare per gli intricati cicli di ascesa e caduta degli imperi. Dopo aver fondato e successivamente venduto una catena di librerie di successo, si è dedicato a ricerche storiche approfondite, concentrandosi infine sul declino dell'Impero Bizantino. La sua scrittura approfondisce le complesse dinamiche di potere e collasso che hanno plasmato le civiltà. L'approccio di Heneage combina intuizione accademica e narrazione avvincente, offrendo ai lettori una vivida esplorazione di epoche storiche cruciali.
