{"product_id":"9781108049030","title":"Matthaei Parisiensis Chronica majora (Matthaei Parisiensis Chronica majora 7 Volume Set)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Church of England clergyman and fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, Henry Richards Luard (1825-91) edited a number of works in the Rolls Series, for which he was noted for the quality of his indexing and the depth of his commentary. This seven-volume work, first published between 1872 and 1883, has been hailed as one of the best editions in the series. It is a rich source for English history from the Creation to 1259, written by England's greatest medieval historian. Matthew Paris (c.1200-59) became a monk at St Albans in 1217 and had access to a wide variety of documents as an acquaintance of such men as Bishop Robert Grosseteste and King Henry III, whom he knew well. The Latin text of Volume 5 covers the period 1248-59. Given the belief that time would end in 1250, apocalyptic verses conclude the Chronica in that year.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49639284605176,"sku":"00000_00000_00000_00000","price":191.92,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/8208\/6904\/files\/9781108049030-1.jpg?v=1783642367","url":"https:\/\/kinokuniya.com.au\/products\/9781108049030","provider":"Books Kinokuniya Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
