ELMHAM, THOMAS (d. c. 1420)

This article appears in Volume V09, Page 297 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: ECG-EMS
ELMHAM, THOMAS (d. c. 1420) , English chronicler, was probably born at North
Elmham
  in Norfolk. He became a
Benedictine
  monk at Canterbury, and then joining the Cluniacs, was prior of Lenton Abbey, near Nottingham; he was chaplain to
Henry
  V., whom he accompanied to France in 1415, being present at Agincourt.
Elmham
  wrote a history of the monastery
of St Augustine at Canterbury, which has been edited by C. Hardwick for the Rolls
Series
  (1858); and a Liber metricus de Henrico V., edited by C. A. Cole in the Memorials of
Henry
  V. (1858). It is very probable that Elmham wrote the famous Gesta Henrici Quinti, which is the best authority for the life of Henry V. from his accession to 1416. This
work
 , often referred to as the " chaplain's life," and thought by some to have been written by Jean de Bordin, has been published for the English Historical Society by B. Williams (185o). Elmham, however, did not write the Vita et Gesta Henrici V., which was attributed to him by T. Hearne and others.
See C. L. Kingsford, Henry V. (19oi).
