The History of the Church of Abingdon is one of the most valuable
local histories produced in the twelfth century. It provides a
wealth of information about, and great insight into, the legal,
economic, and ecclesiastical affairs of a major monastery. Charters
and narrative combine to provide a vital resource for historians.
The present edition, unlike its Victorian predecessor, is based on
the earliest manuscript of the text. A modern English translation
is provided on facing pages, together with extensive introductory
material and historical notes.
This volume covers the period from the reputed foundation of the
abbey and its estates to c.1071. Volume II, already published,
covers from c.1071- c.1164.
