"Essays on the Latin Orient" by William Miller is a collection of historical essays written in the early 20th century. The publication examines various aspects of the Latin influence in the Eastern Mediterranean, focusing particularly on Greece and the Balkans. The essays cover a range of topics from the Roman conquest of Greece to the Byzantine and Venetian periods, shedding light on the historical complexities and interactions among different cultures in the region. The opening of the volume establishes the context of its essays by discussing Greece's historical trajectory following the Roman conquest. It highlights how Greece lost its independence for nearly two millennia, addressing key dynamics such as the interaction of Latin nobles with the local populace, the preservation of Greek identity amidst foreign rule, and the effects of various invasions on the cultural and political landscape of the area. This sets the stage for the subsequent essays that delve deeper into the specific influences and events that shaped the Latin Orient, providing readers with a foundational understanding of the historical narrative the author intends to unfold.
