Translated by J. P. Jacobsen Widukinds Sakserkrønike – Res gestae saxonicae – is a valuable source text to the history of Northern Europe up to the end of the 10th century. The work is divided into three books: Book one tells by way of introduction about a number of wars tracing the career of Henry the Fowler. Book two is dedicated to events around Otto the Great, king of Germany. Book three tells about the time after Otto and contains among other stories the famous tale about king Harald Bluetooth and bishop Poppo. This chronicle is particularly valuable, because here Saxon history is beeing told by a Saxon. – | |||||
