Les qualités d'historien qu'on reconnaît à Guernes de Pont-Sainte-Maxence méritaient qu'on se penchât avec attention et minutie sur la seule oeuvre qu'on lui connaisse, surtout qu'elle n'est pas toujours d'un abord facile. Elle porte d'ailleurs sur un personnage de tout premier plan, et qui a inspiré plus d'un écrivain moderne: Thomas Becket. Parue en 1922, l'édition Walberg, pourtant réputée excellente et certes non dénuée de mérites ni d'intérêt, appelait en priorité une sérieuse remise à jour du texte. Tout a été contrôlé aux sources, souvent remis en conformité avec elles, émendé plus d'une fois différemment s'il le fallait, et ponctué de neuf. Une traduction s'imposait pratiquement; ce fut d'ailleurs le mobile du présent travail. Et elle est demeurée opportune malgré celles qui ont été publiées entre-temps, car elle se distingue des autres par des différences parfois importantes et par l'abondance des justifications, explications ou éléments de discussion fournis dans les notes, qui occupent la majeure partie du tome II. La consultation et la recherche y seront facilitées par une série de tables, consacrées respectivement aux rimes, aux références bibliques, aux proverbes et sentences, à l'intertextualité, aux noms propres, et à un index lexicologique et grammatical de près de 1500 entrées

Our major sources for the life and death of Thomas Becket are rigorously examined in this major new book. In the wake of his murder in December 1170, an extraordinarily large number of Lives of Thomas Becket were produced. They provide an invaluable witness to the life and death of Thomas and the dramatic events in which he was involved, but they are also works of great literary value, more complex and sophisticated than has been recognised. This book, the first to be devoted to the biographers and their works, consists of an examination the individual Lives, followed by an analysis of the biographers' treatment of the major themes in Thomas's life - conversion, conflict, trial, exile and martyrdom - in the light of contemporary hagiographical, historical and theological writing and canon law. It raises points of major significance for the study of intellectual and literary life in the central middle ages and provides an important reassessment of the Becket conflict and Thomas Becket himself. Dr MICHAEL STAUNTON is Lecturer in Medieval History, School of History and Archives, University College Dublin.
