Talk:De Administrando Imperio

A few questions

Up to this version the article content was based on

De Administrando Imperio by Constantine Porphyrogenitus, edited by Gy. Moravcsik and translated by R. J. H. Jenkins, Dumbarton Oaks Center for Byzantine Studies, Washington D. C., 1993

which is the latest and greatest Moravcsik-Jenkins work. Why to replace it by some 1967 edition in the Sources section?

If the article is based on the best edition-translation what use of mentioning some efforts made by almost anonymous Croats in 1910 and 1931?

Then what use of mentioning Kreutz and Zivkovic if these two authors are touching only a very narrow part of the book content?

At the end, proposal: If someone wants to talk about Serbs and Croats history as given in the DAI, let him write a new article, DAI and Serbs and Croats. Then Zivkovic and Ferjancic, Manojlović and Hauptmann could come in play as authors.--178.223.72.121 (talk) 21:17, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

Because Serbian and Croatian enthusiasts of their own respective national history use DAI as a coveted sacramental source to prove that one are more important and real as a group than the others.--౪ Santa ౪^99° 03:11, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

DAI

Sometimes, the name is abbreviated as DAI. --Wisdood (talk) 14:53, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
