Description
The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle is the most important single source for the pre-Conquest history of England, but it is a complicated record which cannot be accurately or fully used without an understanding of the relationship of the various versions and a knowledge whether an individual entry is in all manuscripts, confined to one branch, or even to a single manuscript. This is the only translation of the Chronicle which makes the position clear. Professor Whitelock's introduction embodies the show more advances made by herself and other scholars, and hints at lines along which a solution to our outstanding problems may be sought. show lessTags
