Originally published in 1864-9, and still a standard reference
work, this five-volume collection contains editions of key source
texts for medieval English history, focusing mainly on the
thirteenth century. Compiled in monasteries over many years, they
record local, national and international events in chronological
order, sometimes surprisingly briefly and at other times in great
detail. The coverage includes aristocratic marriages and deaths,
royal visits, conflicts and power struggles, appointments and
acquisitions, astronomical observations, natural disasters, crimes
and punishments. The editor, Henry Richards Luard (1825-91), an
influential Cambridge clergyman and University Administrator,
provided introductions to the Latin texts, and sidenotes in English
indicating their content. Volume 2 (1865) contains the annals of
Winchester (Hampshire), covering 519-1277, and those of the
Cistercian Abbey of Waverley (Surrey), founded in 1128, which run
from 1 CE to 1291. As was usual, the earlier parts of each text
closely follow older sources.
