Hoc anno rex plures interfecit: The Year 782 in the Major and Minor Annals | Robert Flierman | 2,021 | Frankish annalistic writing is traditionally divided into two types: the expansive and overtly political major annals briefer, seemingly unassuming, minor annals. Whereas are thought to have been affiliated with Carolingian court, considered local histories, though their precise origins remain elusive. Recent scholarship has started re-examine this neat division its underlying criteria, pointing out sophisticated narrative strategies evinced in individual deep commitment history. The present study continues re-evaluation by taking a comparative approach corpus. It explores how different annalists responded controversial series of events that took place 782: defeat at Süntel Mountains against Saxons, followed same year infamous Verden Massacre.
