The Cartulary of the Abbey of Saint-Bertin, St-Omer, represents one
of the earliest and most important resources for Carolingian
monastic life and the era of Benedictine reform. Begun by the monk
Folquin around 962, the collection of charters, arranged
chronologically, extends from the seventh century until 1178. It
remains an invaluable witness to the political, economic, and
diplomatic history of this powerful abbey, as well as to the
historiographic impulses of its compilers. One of the first
cartularies to arrange legal and administrative documents in
chronicle form, the Cartulary of the Abbey of Saint-Bertin makes a
powerful claim for the antiquity and coherence of its institutional
origins. The text was first published in 1841 with the Cartulary of
the Abbey of the Holy Trinity, Rouen; this reissue makes both,
together with an 1867 appendix of addenda and corrections published
by Fran ois Morand, available again to scholars.
