Medieval chronicles are significant sources not just for the study of history, but also for the fields of literature, linguistics and art history. These papers, with broad chronological and geographical range, represent current approaches in the study of medieval historiography.
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 by historians, by students of literature and linguistics, and by art historians.

All chronicles raise such questions as by whom, for whom, or for what purpose they were written, how they reconstruct the past, or what kind of literary influences are discernible in them. With illuminated chronicles, the relation between text and image leads to a wholly different set of questions.

The series The Medieval Chronicle, published in cooperation with the Medieval Chronicle Society (medievalchronicle.org), provides a representative survey of 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.

Erik Kooper received his MA and Ph.D. from Utrecht University, where he taught Old and Middle English. He published editions of a number of Middle English works, and articles on medieval chronicles such as the Latin Prose Brut and Robert of Gloucester’s Chronicle. Sjoerd Levelt is Senior Research Associate of the project The Literary Heritage of Anglo-Dutch Contacts, c.1050–c.1600 at the University of Bristol. His most recent book is The Middle Dutch Brut: An Edition and Translation (2021).
