Chronicon (Jerome)
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
The Chronicle (or Chronicon or Temporum liber) was one of Jerome's earliest attempts in the department of history. It was composed c.380 in Constantinople; this is a translation into Latin of the chronological tables which compose the second part of the Chronicon of Eusebius, with a supplement covering the period from 325 to 379. In spite of numerous errors taken over from Eusebius, and some of his own, Jerome produced a valuable work, if only for the impulse which it gave to such later chroniclers as Prosper, Cassiodorus, and Victor of Tannuna to continue his annals.
