Froissart, sometimes loosely described as the historian of the Hundred Years War (he was both more and less than that), was one of the greatest of the medieval European writers.
Introduction, Penguin Classics ed., 1968. In order that the honourable enterprises, noble adventures and deeds of arms which took place during the wars waged by France and England should be fittingly related and preserved for posterity, so that brave men should be inspired thereby to follow such examples, I wish to place on record these matters of great renown.

Die Informationen stammen von der englischen "Wissenswertes"-Seite. Ändern, um den Eintrag der eigenen Sprache anzupassen. The Penguin Classics edition (ISBN 0140442006) is "a selection covering less than one-sixth of the total length of the Chronicles" (Introduction p. 27). Then it should be separated from this work, no? Because these are complete of completish editions of Froissart's Chronicles. Selections edited by Geoffrey Brereton and John Joliffe have their own entires. Do not combine with complete editions or selections by other editors. | |
