• Suspicion, Adultery, Death, and a Zombie: The Ghost of Anant Part 1

  You can find the Latin text of this story, a Latin to English vocabulary list, and an English translation ⁠here on Lupus Alatus's website⁠. In the chronicle of William of Newburgh, Historia De Rebus Anglicis, there are a few chapters that aren’t quite like the rest.
