Note

Chronicon of Florence of Worcester: "based on the work of Marianus, an Irish monk. Marianus, who died in 1082 or 1083, [and] composed a general chronicle from the Creation to his own time ... The additions of Florence nearly all refer to English affairs." -- cf. DNB.

Note

Matthew of Westminster: an imaginary name affixed to a manuscript of the "Flores," probably written early in the 15th century. -- cf. DNB.

Note

Reprint of the 1570 edition by Matthew Parker (cf. DNB). The text for the period to 1259 is based on the author's Chronica majora; the text for the period 1259-1307 was partly compiled and partly composed by various writers at St. Albans and Westminster (it is largely a contemporaneous record); the continuation from 1307 to 1325 is by Robert of Reading. For the most recent theory of authorship cf. Richard Vaughan. Matthew Paris. 1958.
