Description

The text covering the period to 1259 is based on Paris's Chronica majora; the text covering the period 1259-1307 was partly compiled and partly composed by various writers at St. Albans and Westminster. For the most recent theory of authorship cf. Richard Vaughan: Matthew Paris, 1953; for the older theory cf. Dict. nat. biog. - NUC, pre-1956.


Edited by Matthew Parker.
