Zeitschrift der Savigny-Stifiungfiir Rechtsgeschichte, Germanistishe Abteilung, Kanonistisehe Abteilung Introductory Note There are two bibliographies, one for works in English and one for works in other lan­ guages. The first I have tried to make fairly comprehensive, as a guide for those who wish to study early medieval Gaul further; the second is inevitably more seiective, since the literature in both French and German is vast, and concentrates more particularly on those aspects of the period dealt with in the book. Since the footnotes refer largely to the primary sourees, this serves as a guide to most of my own sourees. I have divided both sections, A and B, into the following categories: I. GENERAL WORKS 2. SOURCES 209 210 BIBLIOGRAHIES 3. GENERAL AND POLITICAL HISTORY (a) The late Roman period (b) The Merovingian period (e) The early Carolingian period (d) The late Carolingian period 4. SOCIALHISTORY 5. ECONOMIC HISTORY (a) General (b) Trade (e) Towns (d) The countryside 6. THECHURCHANDCULTURE (a) General (b) The Merovingian Church (e) The Carolingian Church Cross-references will be given in the form, e.g., B5-c. A. BIBLIOGRAPHY OF WORKS IN ENGLISH I. GENERAL WORKS. There is no general introduction to the history ofGaul or France in English which cov­ ers the whole period. R. Latouche, Caesar to Charlemagru: the Beginnings of Franee (Lon­ don, 1968), is lightweight and consists largely of extracts from the sourees. For the later part ofthe period, see R. McKitterick, forthcoming (see be1ow, A3-c). Good short in­ troductions are to be found inJ. M. Wallace-Hadrill, The Barbarian West, 4OO-I()(}() (3rd edn, London, 1967), chs 4 and 5, and in D. Talbot Rice (ed.), The Dark Ages (London, 1965), chs 10 and 13. Chapter 10 was revised and reissued as a book: P. Lasko, The Kingdom ofehe Franks (London, 1971). The most detailed narrative is still to be found in vo1s II and 111 ofthe Cambridge Medieval History (Cambridge, 1913, 1922). The projected rep1acement ofM. Deanes1y, A History ofEarly Medieval Europe, 476-9II (London, 1956), by J. L. Nelson and I. N. Wood, will be extremely welcome, as will P. McNulty's vol­ urne for the Longman series.J. Hubertetal., Europein the Dark Ages (London, 1969) and Carolingian Art (London, 1970), are admirable guides to art and architectura1 history. 2.S0URCES (a) The late Roman period The letters and poems ofSidonius Apollinaris have been translated in the Loeb series by W. B. Anderson (2 vols, London, 1936, 1965); the letters alone by O. M. Dalton (2 vols, Oxford, 1915). On the Government ofGod, by Salvian, is translated by E. M. Sanford (New York, 1930). F. R. Hoare, The Western Fathers (London, 1954), contains the lives of Martin ofTours, Honoratus of Arles and Germanus of Auxerre. (b) The Merovingian period The major narrative sources have all been translated: Gregory ofTours, History ofthe Franks by L. Thorpe (Harmondsworth, 1974), and by O. M. Dalton, 2 vo1s (London, 1926); Gregory's continuator Fredegar by J. M. Wallace-Hadrill, The Fourth Book ofthe Chronicle ofFredegar (London, 1960); and the Lwer Historiae Franc07U1Tl by B. S. Bachrach BIBLIOGRAPHIES 211 (Lawrence, Kansas, 1973). Extracts ofother works ofGregory are to be found in E. Peters, ed., Monks, Bishops and Pagans (Philadelphia, 1975); complete translations ofthe Miracles ofStJulian and St Martin, by J. Corbett, are in progress (Toronto, forthcoming). The only legal material in translation is K. F. Drew, The Burgundian Code (Philadel­ phia, 1949). The sermons ofCaesarius of ArIes have been translated by Si ster M. M. Mucller in the Fathers ofthe Church series (3 vols, New York 1956, Washington 1964 and 1973). Thc only 'Merovingian' saint's life in translation, and only in part, is Jonas's Lire ofColumbanus, in E. Peters, op. eit. Columbanus' own works have been edited and translated by G. S. M. Walker, Sancti Columbani Opera (Dublin, 1970). Various types of Merovingian source material can be found inJ. N. Hillgarth, ed., The Conversion ofWest­ ern Europe, 350-750 (Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, 1969). (c) The Carolingian period B. S. Scholz, ed., Carolingian Chronicles (Ann Arbor, 1970), contains the Royal Frankish Annals and Nithard's Histories. H. R. Loyn andJ. Percival, The Reign ofCharlemagne (London, 1975), contains selections from capitularies, charters etc. Several biographies hive been translated in toto: Einhard and Notker in Two Lives of Charlemagne by L. Thorpe (Harmondsworth, 1969); the Astronomer in Son ofCharlemagne: a Contemporary Life of Louis the Pious by A. Cabaniss (Syracuse, New York, 1961) and lives of Adalard and Wala in Charlemagne's Cousins by A. Cabaniss (Syracuse, New York, 1967). Adalard's own 'Customs ofCorbie' have been translated by C. W.Jones in vol III ofE. Horn and W. Born, The Plan ojSt Galt (Berkeley, California, 1979). Four collections ofletters have been completely or partially translated: The Letters of Saint Boniface by E. Emerton (New York, 1940) (for Willibald's Life ofBoniface, see C. H. Talbot, ed., The Anglo-Saxon Missionaries in Germany (London, 1954)); the letters of Alcuin in Alcuin ofYork by S. Allott (York, 1974); The LettersofLupusofFerrieres by G. W. Regenos (The Hague, 1966); and The Leiters ofGerbert, with his Papal Privileges as Sylvester 11, by H. P. Lattin (New York, 1961). Veryfew sources from the late ninth or tenth cen­ tury have been translated. The only work by Hincmar ofRheims known to me in trans­ lation is the De ordine palatii, to be found in The History ofFeudalism, ed. D. Herlihy (Lon­ don, 1971), together with extracts from Merovingian and Carolingian sources relating to 'feudalism'. Two important tenth-century saints' lives, Odo's Life ofGerald ofAuril­ lac andJohn ofSalerno's Life ofOdo, are to be found in G. Sitwell, ed., St Odo ofCluny (London, 1958). Some idea ofCarolingian learning can be gathered from Dicuili Liber de Mensura Orbis Terrae, ed. and trans. J. J. Tierney (Dublin, 1967), and John Scotus Eriugena, Periphyseon: On the Division of Nature, trans. M. Uhlfelder (Indianapolis, 1976). (Vol. I is edited and trans la ted by I. P. Sheldon-Williams (Dublin, 1968).) See also, as an example of vision-literature, D. A. Traill, Walalifrid Strabo 's Visio Weltini (Berne/Frankfurt, 1974). 3. GENERAL AND POLITICAL HISTORY (a) The late Roman period The major work is A. H. M.Jones, The Later Roman Empire, 284-602 (3 vols plus maps, Oxford, 1964). On later Roman Gaul, see sections inJ. Matthews, Western Aristocracies and the Imperial Court (Oxford, 1975); C. E. Stevens, Sidonius Apoltinaris and His Age (Oxford, 1933); and N. K. Chadwick, Poetry and Leiters in Early Christian Gaul (Cam­ bridge, 1955). On the invasions, see above all L. Musset, The Germanic Invasions (Lon­ don, 1975). The settlement ofthe Visigoths and Burgundians has been discussed by E. A. Thompson, 'The Settlement ofthe Barbarians in Southern Gaul' ,Journal ofRoman Studies, XLVI (1956) pp. 65-75, 'The Barbarian Kingdoms in Gaul and Spain', Nottingham 212 BIBLIOGRAPHIES Medieval Studies, VII (1963) pp. 3-33, and 'The Visigoths from Fritigern to Euric', Historia, XII (1963) pp. 105-26; by J. M. Wallace-Hadrill, 'Gothia and Romania', in his The Long-Haired Kings (London, 1962); and by W. Goffart, Barbarians and Romans, A.D. 418-584. The Techniques of Accommodation (Princeton, 1980). For Frankish settlement, see C. Verlinden, 'Frankish Colonisation: a New Ap­ proach', T. R. H. S., 5th ser., IV (1954) pp. 1-17;J. M. Wallace-Hadrill, The Long-Haired Kings, pp: 148-63; and E. James, 'Cemeteries and the Problem ofFrankish Settlement in Gaul', in P. H. Sawyer, ed., Names, Words and Graves: Early Medieval Settlement (Leeds, 1979) pp. 55-89. For the Bretons, see N. K. Chadwick, 'The Colonization ofBrittany from Celtic Britain', P. B. A., LI (1965) pp. 235-99; her Early Brittany (Cardiff, 1969); and the artic1e of the same title by J. L. Fleuriot and P. Giot, Antiquity, LI (1977) pp. 106-16. (b) The Merovingian period J. M. Wallace-Hadrill, The Long-Haired Kings, provides a study ofthe kings in his title­ essay: there are also important studies on Gregory ofTours and Fredegar. On Gregory see below, A6-b, and G. de Nie, 'Roses inJanuary: a Neglected Dimension in Gregory ofTours' Historiae, U. M. H., V (1979) pp. 259-89; on Fredegar, see W. Goffart, 'The Fredegar Problem Reconsidered', Speculum, XXXVIII (1963) pp. 206-41. An old­ fashioned but entertaining study drawing heavily on Gregory is Sir Samuel Dill's Roman Society in Gaul in the Merovingian Age (London, 1926).
