Cosmas of Prague: Chronicle of the Czechs

translated with an introduction and notes by Lisa Wolvercote

"The Chronicle of the Czechs" by Cosmas of Prague (d. 1125) is a masterwork of medieval historical writing, deeply erudite, consciously researched, and narrated in high rhetorical style. Regarded as the foundational narrative of Czech history, it is the source of the oldest stories about the land, people, and rulers of Bohemia and Moravia. Lisa Wolverton provides the first annotated English translation. 274p (Catholic University of America Press 2009)
