Excerpt from Procopius, Vol. 1 of 6: With an English Translation, History of the Wars, Books I and II The history is more general than the title would imply, and all the important events of the time are touched upon. So while we read much of the cam paigns against the nations who were crowding back the boundaries of the old empire, we also hear of civic affairs such as the great Nika insurrection in Byzantium in 532 similarly a careful account is given of the pestilence of 540, and the care shown in de scribing the nature of the disease shows plainly that the author must have had some acquaintance with the medical science of the time.
