{"product_id":"9781855664005","title":"The Chronicles of Fernão Lopes","description":"Volume V of  the first complete English translation of the chronicles of Fernão Lopes, containing the general bibliography and a comprehensive index containing all people and place names mentioned in the chroniclesUntil now, the chronicles of Fernão Lopes (c.1380-c.1460) have only been available in critical editions or in partial translations. Comparable to the works of Froissart in France or López de Ayala in Spain, the chronicles provide a wealth of detail on late fourteenth-century politics, diplomacy, warfare and economic matters, courtly society, queenship and noble women, as well as more mundane concerns such as food, health and the purchasing power of a fluctuating currency. Lopes had a keen eye for detail and a perspective especially attuned to the common people, and his chronicles provide an invaluable source for the history of Western Europe in the later Middle Ages.","brand":"Amélia P Hutchinson","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47709662478654,"sku":"9781855664005","price":3495.23,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9781855664005_2a6599b2-5d70-40f7-aedf-545c3a7855fa.jpg?v=1707639969","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9781855664005","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
