The Medieval Chronicle 11: The Medieval Chronicle, cartea 11

Erik S. Kooper, Sjoerd Levelt
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 noi 2017
Alongside annals, chronicles were the main genre of historical writing in the Middle Ages. Their significance as sources for the study of medieval history and culture is today widely recognised not only by historians, but also by students of medieval literature and linguistics and by art historians. The series The Medieval Chronicle aims to provide a representative survey of the on-going research in the field of chronicle studies, illustrated by examples from specific chronicles from a wide variety of countries, periods and cultural backgrounds.
There are several reasons why the chronicle is particularly suited as the topic of a yearbook. In the first place there is its ubiquity: all over Europe and throughout the Middle Ages chronicles were written, both in Latin and in the vernacular, and not only in Europe but also in the countries neighbouring on it, like those of the Arabic world. Secondly, all chronicles raise such questions as by whom, for whom, or for what purpose were they written, how do they reconstruct the past, what determined the choice of verse or prose, or what kind of literary influences are discernable in them. Finally, many chronicles have been beautifully illuminated, and the relation between text and image leads to a wholly different set of questions.
The Medieval Chronicle is published in cooperation with the Medieval Chronicle Society (medievalchronicle.org).

Recenzii

"Přechod k novému vydavateli umožnil lepší grafickou úpravu stránky a užití nového typu písma, především pak umístění poznámek pod text místo na konec studií (Trl.: The transition to a new publisher enabled a better graphic design of the page and the use of a new font, above all then placing notes below the text instead of at the end of the studies.) [...] Významnou inovací oproti předchozím ročníkům je zařazení recenzí prací o středověkých kronikách (Trl.: A significant innovation compared to previous years is the inclusion reviews of works on medieval chronicles.) [...] Publikované příspěvky se, jak je u časopisu The Medieval Chronicle obvyklé, vyznačují vysokou odbornou úrovní. Chvályhodná je také snaha editorů zařazovat tématicky různorodé příspěvky, stejně jako příspěvky z různých geografických a společenských prostředí, což umožňuje srovnávání historiografických textů z různých oblastí Evropy a zjišťování jejích společných rysů i místních specifik" (Trl.: As is usual for The Medieval Chronicle, the published contributions are characterized by a high professional level. The effort of the editors to include thematically diverse contributions, as well as contributions from different geographical and social environments, is also commendable, which enables the comparison of historiographical texts from different regions of Europe and the identification of its common features and local specificities.)
