Why this is in the register

HOLLIS 'Annales Hildesheimenses English' returns 2 records (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Annales%20Hildesheimenses%20English&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 a bilingual Polish-Latin volume of 2013 (Widukind, Res gestae Saxonicae, with the Annales Corbeienses and Annales Hildesheimenses, 'Roczniki...' with English section headings) and an unrelated symposium. No English translation of the annals as a work is recorded. The Latin text is at dMGH, SS rer. Germ. 8 (https://www.dmgh.de/mgh_ss_rer_germ_8/index.htm#page/(1)), where the edition's last page carries the entries for 1136 and 1137.

The Hildesheim annals carry the Saxon imperial church's view of the Investiture Contest into the 1130s and preserve material on the Slavo-Saxon frontier found nowhere else. They are the natural continuation of Widukind, who is translated, and they are untranslated.
