The editors, Franz Miklosich (1813–91), philosopher, linguist and Slovenian nationalist, and Josef (or Giuseppe) Müller (1823–95), a Greek scholar who also translated many important works by German classical historians into Italian, used as one of their sources the volumes of Greek manuscripts brought back to Vienna by Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq (1522–92), the Flemish diplomat, herbalist, and travel writer who had acted as Imperial Ambassador to the Sublime Porte. Volume 6 (published in 1890) contains texts relating to the great Orthodox Monastery of St John on Patmos, founded in 1088 by St Christodoulos and dedicated to the author of The Book of Revelation, which was written on the island.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePraefatio\u003cbr\u003e Diplomata et acta Monasterii Sancti Ioannis Theologi in insula Patmo e tabulario coenobii\u003cbr\u003e Appendix\u003cbr\u003e Index.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: European history [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on European history\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22European%20history%20%5BHBJD%5D%22\"\u003eHBJD\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46266076954904,"sku":"9781108044554","price":35.28,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781108044554i_9fbef185-7525-4a93-b7b0-530bec71b232.jpg?v=1696746639","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/acta-et-diplomata-graeca-medii-aevi-sacra-et-profana-paperback-9781108044554","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
