<p>[QUOTE="seth77, post: 7887458, member: 56653"]My experience has been that if you are interested in a certain issue of a certain realm/polity, you search for articles or (less available usually) books that treat *just that* realm/polity by academics (usually local) who are actively involved in the study of that niche. And this ties to the reason we don't see much of French feudal numismatists and collectors in the English-speaking world -- they need to read Bompaire, C. Morrisson, Dumas, Musset, Duplessy, Lafaurie usw. And these people write in French.</p><p><br /></p><p>What I do tell everyone who'd listen is that if you are interested in learning not just numismatics, but European history on a more in-depth level, especially if you want to pursue an academic career in history-related fields, learn as many European languages as possible, at least at the basic level of being able to read and comprehend a scientific article.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
