In this work, Antonia Gransden offers a comprehensive critical
survey of historical writing and historiographical achievements in
mid-6th century through early 16th century England. While studying
an extensive variety of primary sources--including chronicles,
annals, secular and sacred biographers and monographs on local
histories--these volumes also provide a critical evaluation of
secondary sources and historiographical development.
Discussions of important figures such as Bede, William Malmesbury
and Matthew Paris include a critical examination of their careers
and work, and detail the influences and traditions which shaped
each writer's attitudes. This standard reference work for English
history has been updated with textual corrections and includes an
extensive bibliography as well as detailed references.
