Giovanni
I enjoyed this greatly. I'm grateful that it reminded me that Justinian is the sole speaker in the sixth canto of Dante's Paradiso, and of one of my (MANY) favorite tercets:
Diverse voci fanno dolci note;
così diversi scanni in nostra vita
rendon dolce armonia tra queste rote.
~~~
Differing voices join to sound sweet music;
so do the different orders in our life
render sweet harmony among these spheres.

Always fun to review some medieval history with Dan Jones!
