Synopsis

This practical guide aims to facilitate the discovery of narrative sources (chronicles, annals, saints' lives) for a given area and time period. It lists editions, modern translations and, as far as possible, internet sites for texts. Nine introductory essays discuss genres of historical narrative and the methods of medieval history writing, and also highlight the special character of Byzantine, Muslim, and Eastern Christian narrative sources.
