Description and Table of Contents
Description
The History of the Church of Abingdon is one of the most valuable local histories produced in the twelfth century. It provides a wealth of information about, and great insight into, the legal, economic, and ecclesiastical affairs of a major monastery. Charters and narrative combine to provide a vital resource for historians. The present edition, unlike its Victorian predecessor, is based on the earliest manuscript of the text. A modern English translation is provided
on facing pages, together with extensive introductory material and historical notes.
This volume covers the period c.1071-c.1164. Volume I, to be published later, will contain the pre-1071 material.
