It sees these endeavours as both scholarly and antiquarian, but they also as linked to periods of definition of, and concern with, England and Englishness from the Reformation through to nineteenth-century medievalism. It discusses successive editions and their presentation of these chronicles, and argues that editions have not been neutral but have played a role in constructing these texts as a single national chronicle. It stresses the importance of the most recent editions, which present each chronicle separately.

It examines its making, patronage, and audience, and its connection to the extension of southern power to England north of the Trent and Humber. A detailed reconstruction of the text identifies its sources in Bede, the York Annals, and the chronicle produced at Alfred’s court, the use of Bede being part of the story of Bede’s reception in later Anglo-Saxon England. It considers the nature of the resulting chronicle, its continuities with and shifts from that of Alfred. The Northern Recension is the first identifiable chronicle to add substantially to the Alfred Chronicle’s text. It is argued that this chronicle is linked to the archbishops of York, who were southern appointees and agents of southern power, but its makers were Northumbrian and attention is paid to their voices in the text.
