- Summary:
- The chronicle of John of Worcester is one of the most important sources of early English history, which has never been edited adequately, and an edition has long been needed. It is an essential record of the history of the Anglo-Saxon period and of the late eleventh and twelfth centuries. The chronicle will be published in three volumes. Volume II covers the annals for 450 to 1066, and Volume III the annals from 1067 to 1140. Volume I will be published last, and will contain a general introduction and supplementary material.
