Hey #medievaltwitter, does anyone know of books regarding kingship in the global Middle Ages that isn’t a really white-gazey sort of thing? There are some books out there that I was recommended before but they were....not great.

Not global, and not on kingship per se, but a good place to start on some aspects of kingship in Central and North-East Asian

Thank you. Does he cite Scholars of Colour in his work? I am trying to broaden my reading here, and incorporating BIPOC’s work.

As in the work of many of us working on East and Central Asian history, scholarship from those living in the region is included and often central.
