Publisher's Synopsis
The Chronicle of Man and the Sudreys, a medieval Latin text, offers a valuable historical record of the Isle of Man and the surrounding islands (the Sudreys, or Southern Isles). Authored during a period of Norse and Scottish influence, the chronicle provides insights into the political, religious, and social life of the region. This edition, attributed to Peter Andreas Munch, presents the original Latin text, allowing scholars and historians to engage directly with this primary source material.
The chronicle covers events from the early Christian period up to the 13th century, detailing the reigns of kings, ecclesiastical affairs, and significant events affecting the Isle of Man and its neighbors. It is an essential resource for anyone studying the history of the British Isles, Norse settlements in the Irish Sea, or medieval Europe.
