On March 2, 1127 in Bruges, while praying in the church of Saint Donatian, Glorious Charles, count of Flanders, was surrounded by assassins and killed by a sword blow to the forehead. The craven murder of Charles, who had no progeny and had not yet named a successor, upset the fragile balance of power between England, France and the Holy Roman Empire, giving rise to a prolonged struggle for the countship and bloody civil war while impacting the commercial life of the most prosperous regions of medieval Europe. The eyewitness account by Flemish cleric and chronicler Galbert of Bruges of the scandalous assassination and struggle for power that ensued is one of the very few historical journals to have survived from twelfth-century Europe. This new translation by medieval studies expert Jeff Rider greatly improves upon all previous versions, substantially advancing scholarship on the Middle Ages while granting new life and immediacy to Galbert's well-informed and courageously candid narrative.
