"Chroniques de J. Froissart, tome 8.1: 1370-1377" by Jean Froissart is a medieval chronicle written in the 14th century. This volume covers crucial years of the Hundred Years' War, documenting events across Western Europe—primarily England, France, Scotland, the Low Countries, and Iberia. Written in Middle French prose, Froissart's work draws from eyewitness accounts gathered at royal courts and earlier chronicles. His vivid battle descriptions and courtly observations provide essential insight into 14th-century chivalric culture, though modern historians note chronological and geographical inaccuracies.
