Romuleon

Synopsis

The Romuleon was a Latin work describing the history of Rome, compiled by Benvenuto da Imola in the mid-fourteenth century from a number of earlier texts. It was later translated into French by two separate writers: The Romuléon of Jean Miélot, made in 1460 for Philip the Good. The Romuléon of Sébastien Mamerot, made in 1466 for Louis de Laval, seigneur de Châtillon. A second Latin version was produced by Adamo Montaldo in the 1490s. Mamerot's translation was published in a modern edition in 2000.
