The monk Rodulfus Glaber is best known for his Five Books of
Histories, a major source for events in the first half of the
eleventh century, and valuable above all for revealing the mental
furniture of an eleventh-century monk - for his account of the
millennium, of relics genuine and false, of church-building, and
visions of saints and demons. This edition, the first since 1866,
presents the only critical text of the Histories, accompanied by a
complete translation and a full historical commentary. Glaber also
wrote a Life of his mentor, St William of Dijon, the renowned
monastic reformer. The Life is reprinted after the Histories, again
with translation and notes. The evidence for Glaber's life, and the
value of his work are discussed in a Historical Introduction.
