Why this is in the register

HOLLIS 'Chronicon Novaliciense' returns 8 records (https://hollis.harvard.edu/discovery/search?query=any,contains,Chronicon%20Novaliciense&tab=Everything&search_scope=MyInst_and_CI&vid=01HVD_INST:HVD2&offset=0 the Turin edition of 1843, the MGH edition of 1846, a Brepols edition of 2025 and the Italian volume La Novalesa (1976), which renders the chronicle into Italian. No English translation is recorded. The Latin is in MGH SS 7 (https://www.dmgh.de/mgh_ss_7/index.htm), where the chronicle follows John the Deacon's Venetian history.

Three books on the abbey of Novalesa in the Susa valley, including the monks' flight before the Saracens, the foundation of San Pietro at Breme, and a mass of local tradition and legend that is hardly used outside Italian scholarship. It is one of the few narrative sources for the western Alpine passes in the ninth and tenth centuries.
