This second collection of papers by Peter Edbury focuses primarily
on the literature either composed in the Latin East or closely
associated with it. The legal treatises from the kingdom of
Jerusalem and from Cyprus and Antioch have long been recognized as
providing insights into the juridical and social history of these
places in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, and some of the
papers re-issued here reflect the author's work in re-editing two
of the most famous of these treaties, those by John of Ibelin-Jaffa
and Philip of Novara. The studies on historical literature are
chiefly concerned with vernacular texts, most notably the Old
French translation of William of Tyre and its Continuations, again
much a result of his current work on a new edition of the
Continuations and the associated text known as La Chronique
d'Ernoul. Other papers concerned with aspects of the narrative
traditions that furnish a significant part of our knowledge of
Lusignan Cyprus in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, and
with which in one way or another Peter Edbury has been engaged
since the early 1970s.
