Jean de Noyalâs Miroir historial is a world chronicle composed in Laon in Northern France in the 1380s of which only the three final books, X, XI and XII, have been preserved for posterity. Like other world chronicles, the Miroir is a compilation. In book X, the original passages are particularly few and quite brief â the original material in the chronicle is generally limited to explanatory sub-clauses. The remaining material is borrowed from other French or Latin works. The events are retold only partly in chronological order, and the Miroir sometimes gives two or three different versions of the same event. The fact that these repetitions are, without doubt, a deliberate method of compilation is proven by the references inserted by the Abbot in these instances. This method provides the reader with several interpretations of the same event. This article investigates the sources used in book X and describes its method of compilation.
