This narrative of events between the years 1173 and 1202--as
recorded by Jocelin of Brakelond, a monk who lived in the abbey of
Bury St. Edmunds, in the region of West Suffolk--affords many
unique insights into the life of a medieval religious community. It
depicts the daily worship in the abbey church and the beliefs and
values shared by the monks, as well as the whispered conversations,
rumors, and disagreements within the cloister--and the bustling
life of the market-town of Bury, just outside the abbey walls. This
edition offers the first modern translation from the Latin to
appear since 1949.
