Why this is in the register

HOLLIS 'Chronicon Moissiacense' returns 4 records (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Chronicon%20Moissiacense&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 all of them Latin editions (three Brepols titles of 2025 and a volume of collected studies); no English translation appears. The Brepols titles themselves give the span as 408-818 and 840. Passages are quoted in English in works on the Spanish campaign of 778 and on Aquitanian monasticism, but no translation of the chronicle as a whole exists. The Latin is available at dMGH in SS 1 (https://www.dmgh.de/mgh_ss_1/index.htm#page/(280)).

An Aquitanian world chronicle that preserves a distinctive southern version of Carolingian history, including material on the 778 expedition and on the monasteries of the region that the royal annals omit. Without a translation the Aquitanian voice in ninth-century historiography is effectively closed to English readers.

Existing translations recorded
