Volume V of the first complete English translation of the
chronicles of Fernão Lopes, containing the general bibliography
and a comprehensive index containing all people and place names
mentioned in the chronicles Until now, the chronicles of Fernão
Lopes (c.1380-c.1460) have only been available in critical editions
or in partial translations. Comparable to the works of Froissart in
France or López de Ayala in Spain, the chronicles provide a wealth
of detail on late fourteenth-century politics, diplomacy, warfare
and economic matters, courtly society, queenship and noble women,
as well as more mundane concerns such as food, health and the
purchasing power of a fluctuating currency. Lopes had a keen eye
for detail and a perspective especially attuned to the common
people, and his chronicles provide an invaluable source for the
history of Western Europe in the later Middle Ages.
