This book presents a critical edition of The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, a collection of annals or year-by-year accounts of events in the history of England and other European regions that range in date from the 7th to the 12th centuries. Written largely by monks, annalists, and scribes, the collected entries span a period of over 437 years and serve as a remarkable historical record of the political and social developments of Anglo-Saxon England. The author provides in-depth analysis of the chronicle, which was first compiled at Winchester in the reign of King Alfred (871-899), and also examines its subsequent growth, development, and transmission over the following centuries. The book offers a valuable resource for scholars and students of early English history.
