About this title

Synopsis

Two of the Saxon Chronicles Parallel (787-1001 A.D.) lays two annals side by side, revealing how early England recorded itself across turbulent centuries. A seminal voice of history. Edited by Charles Plummer as a revised text with introduction, critical notes and glossary, this Anglo-Saxon chronicles edition brings together a primary source anthology of early British chronicles in faithful parallel historical texts with supplementary extracts drawn from the other annals. More than a compendium of dates, the material is indispensable for anyone interested in medieval English history: the annals trace people and power across ninth-century England and illuminate the shifting contacts of Viking Age Britain. The pages give immediate glimpses of law, kinship, exile and the rhythms of seasonal life; such details make the annals essential for reconstructing daily experience as well as grand political shifts. As a historical document collection and a work of Anglo-Saxon literature it offers direct access to the terse, immediate voice of contemporary record-keeping. Plummer's critical notes and introduction guide readers through variants and chronology, while the glossary makes archaic terms approachable for those studying Old English translations. Plummer's editorial apparatus, modest yet rigorous, helps readers navigate variant readings and manuscript complexity without sacrificing readability. Useful as an academic research resource or a lecture-room medieval studies textbook, it is equally gripping for casual readers drawn to the stark drama of annals and for classic-literature collectors seeking a scholarly, collectible edition. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Accessible, annotated and prepared with a collector's eye, it rewards curious readers and specialist libraries. A thoughtful edition for shelves and seminars. Rich in context and clarity. A keeper for generations to come.
