(Redirected from Cambridge Chronicle (medieval))

The Chronicle of CambridgeorCambridge Chronicle, also known as the Tarʾīkh Jazīrat Ṣiqilliya ("History of the Island of Sicily"), is a short, anonymous medieval chronicle covering the years 827–965. It is the earliest native Sicilian chronicle of the emirate of Sicily,[1] and was written from the perspective of a Sicilian Christian of the 10th or 11th century.[2] It survives in two versions: a Greek version in two manuscripts and an Arabic version in one. For years only the Arabic text kept in Cambridge University Library was known, but in 1890 a Greek redaction was discovered. The Greek texts are found in the Vatican Library and the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Codex Parisinus Graecus 920).[3][4] It has been translated into English,[3] Italian[5] and French.[6]
