ADHEMAR DE CHABANNES (c. 988-c. 1030)

This article appears in Volume V01, Page 192 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ADA-AIZ
ADHEMAR DE CHABANNES (c. 988-c. 1030) , medieval historian, was born about 988 at Chabannes, a
village
  in the French department of Haute-Vienne. Educated at the monastery of St Martial at
Limoges
 , he passed his
life
  as a monk, either at this place or at the monastery of St Cybard at
Angouleme
 . He died about 1030, most probably at Jerusalem, whither he had gone on a
pilgrimage
 . Adhemar's
life
  was mainly spent in writing and transcribing chronicles, and his
principal
 
work
  is a history entitled Chronicon Aquitanicum et Francicum or Historia Francorum. This is in three books and deals with Frankish history from the fabulous reign of Pharamond, king of the
Franks
 , to A.D. 1028. The two earlier books are scarcely more than a copy of the Gesta regum Francorum, but the third book, which deals with the period from 814 to Io28, is of considerable historical importance. This is published in the Monumenta Germaniae historica. Scriptores. Band iv. (Hanover and Berlin, 1826-1892). He also wrote Commemoratio abbatum Lemovicensium
basilicae S. Martialis apostoli (8481029) and Epistola ad Jordanum Lemovicensem episcopum et alios de apostolatu S. 3fartialis, both of which are published by J. P. Migne in the Patrologia
Latina
 , tome cxli. (Paris, 18441855).

Limoges
 , 1873) ; J. F. E. Castaigne, Dissertation sur le lieu de naissance et sur la famille du chroniqueur Ademar, moine de l'abbaye de St Cybard d'Angouleeeme (
Angouleme
 , 1850).
