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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePreface  Abbreviations  Notes on Contributors    The Phenomenon of the Divine in Medieval Cypriot Chronicles and Chronicles Referring to Cyprus   Nicholas Coureas    Narratives of Poisoning in the Chronicles of Pedro López de Ayala   Lynne Echegaray    Nicole Gilles’s Presentation of the Death of Louis XI and the Collection of Symbols of Kingship   Catherine Emerson    Transforming Eusebius: Continuity and Shifts in the Representation of Constantine in Socrates and Sozomen   Daniil Kotov    The Frankish Minor Annals    Preface   Bart van Hees and Sören Kaschke    Minor Annals and Frankish History Writing   Bart van Hees    Fluid Historiography: The Annales Petaviani and the (Re)Writing of History in the Eighth Century   Sören Kaschke    Hoc anno rex plures interfecit: The Year 782 in the Major and Minor Annals   Robert Flierman    Christian Language and the Frankish ‘Minor’ Annals: Narrative, History and Theology in the Late Eighth Century   Robert Evans    Reframing the Carolingian Annals   Jennifer R.
