Indigo Annals in Carolingian Europe: A Genre in Motion | Erin Mills Town Centre
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Indigo
In the 8th-9th centuries annals became the predominant genre of Frankish historiography, displaying a remarkable variety of texts. Yet for a long time scholarly appreciation of this variety has been limited, stuck in 19th-century fixations on urtexts and doubts about the proficiency of annalists. But for some years now, annals have resurfaced as historiographical texts sui generis, much helped by the increasing availability of digitised manuscripts. This has facilitated the study of codicological contexts in which annals functioned - a feature flattened out in 19th-century editions - and was accompanied by renewed interest in the genre’s role within Carolingian literary culture. The articles in this volume discuss the genre’s characteristics, development and differentiation over time, including the agency available to authors, compilers and scribes alike. Test cases analyse regional interests, language, the (re)use of annalistic texts in chronicles and vice versa, and their use as tools of communication between intellectual networks. A recurring theme is the need for new editions, be it in print or digital. In all, the volume intends to provide a reference point for future research on the practice of early medieval history writing.
