This edition, edited here from BL, MS Cotton Tiberius B.i, presents for the first time the textual source of several of the most important extant manuscripts in the Chronicle tradition (including MSS B, C, D and E), and shows the contribution of Abingdon Abbey to its development. In his full and detailed introduction, Professor Conner explains his choice of manuscript; he also offers a theory, arguing against current thinking, for the relationship between MSS B and C; and suggests that the phenomenon of poetry in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle originated with Abingdon.-- Evaluates the relationship of the Abingdon Chronicle to other Chronicle MSS.Scholars have long accepted that the earliest texts of The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle have not survived, but The Abingdon Chronicle, edited here, represents an attempt to reconstruct the textual source of several of the most important extant manuscripts in the Chronicle tradition.
