About the book >.>.> In preparing this edition of the Carmen de Hastingae Proelio we have been greatly indebted to the assistance and lively interest in our research of many institutions and even more medieval scholars and the number of friendships here and abroad that our questions to them have brought about has been a happy accidental product of our work. Our thanks must go first to the Delegates of the Oxford Univer- sity Press and the Editors of the Oxford Medieval Texts for their generosity in accepting this edition and in allowing the text and translation of the Carmen to be accompanied by historical analysis and commentaries greater in length than is usual in this series. We are also most grateful to Messrs. Chatto & Windus Ltd. and Charles Scribner’s Sons Hope Muntz’s publishers for allowing this work to be offered to the Clarendon Press. Space does not permit more than a brief listing of the many libraries and societies to which we owe so much. We thank: the Rare Book Room of the University of Virginia Charlottesville; the New York Public Library; the municipal libraries of Rouen Alen?on Boulogne Amiens and Abbeville; the Public Record Office London; the Bodleian Library Oxford; the library of the Fitzwilliam Museum Cambridge; the library of the Society of Antiquaries of London; the library of Karl-Marx Universit?t Leipzig; the municipal library of Berlin (DDR); the Seminar- bibliothek and Stadtbibliothek Trier; the Archives Nationales Biblioth?que Nationale and ?cole des Chartes Paris; the Royal Historical Society; the Kent and Sussex Archaeological Societies; the Battle and District Historical Society; and the National Central Library of London together with all of the many libraries from which we were privileged to borrow books through its services.
