Haines, Charles Reginald
Christian martyrs -- Spain; Christianity -- Spain; Islam -- Spain
([Greek: th].) _Alfonso_, Bishop of Burgos, "Anacephalaiosis rerum
Hispanarum," etc.
Sidenote: _Ibid._, i. 246-291.
([Greek: i].) _Luitprand_, died 972. The Chronicon and Adversaria
attributed to him are by a later hand, and extend over the years
606-960. The author of these is generally called the Pseudo-Luitprand,
and very little credit can be placed in his statements.
Sidenote: Migne, cxxxvi. pp. 770-1179.
([Greek: k].) _Rodrigo_, Archbishop of Toledo, "History of the Arabs
from Christian and Arabic Sources, carried down to 1140." He died in
1245. The work is full of irrelevant references to Scripture and to
profane history. He does not even mention the Christian martyrdoms in
the ninth century.
Sidenote: Schott, "Hisp. Illustr.," i. pp. 121-246
([Greek: l].) _Annales Bertiniani_, from the French point of view.
Sidenote: Florez, x. 570-579.
([Greek: m].) _Johannes Vasaeus_, "Hispaniae Chronicon."
Sidenote: Schott, i. 700 ff.

writers on incidental subjects, whose works throw great light on the
history of the time. Among these are--
