He’s probably thinking about him thinking about women in the Byzantine Empire from 1025 to 1204
As a humanities major, it strikes me as a perfectly plausible title for an overpriced 4000-level or Masters degree text in Medieval Studies. Probably also accompanied by three other similar sounding texts and a xeroxed (or PDF’d, these days) packet of random essays assembled by the professor 15 years ago.
Barbra Hill stole the cover I was going to use on my book about Mermaids!
And here I am, simping for Anna Komnene
Filthy casual. Eudokia Makrembolitissa or noone.
I’m going to assume that’s incredibly witty and clever and give you an internet point.
Might I suggest you read Imperial Women in Byzantium 1025-1204 by Barbara Hill so you can adequately appreciate my genius.

It is probably one of those LLM-written books popping up everywhere. Once you have automated the process from LLM to ebook, you can produce them in masses for next to nothing, flood the markets, and hope that someone buys them and forgets to return them. Even if they find only 5-10 victims per book, it’s nearly 100% profit.
It was originally published in 1999, it’s here with its original cover.
God knows why it’s been rereleases with this weird ai cover now though.
Amazingly, this is an actual photograph. It was published by Pearson. Also, there’s a back:
One might wonder if the money actually goes to the same author/publisher. Given that it is about a rather niche topic, it could be an illegal copy with a random cover.
I don’t think so, considering that it was written in 1999. And it’s just way too specific for something LLM would come up with.
OK, the 1999 release date, if correct, is a good argument against it. But for me, it actually sound like a title I’d expect from an LLM model, to be sure.
She can clearly see he is reading, and the cover of the book is facing her.
“actual cover of this book” would have sufficed just fine.
