The biographical and historical works of Eadmer, secretary of Saint Anselm, Archbishop of Canterbury, look back to the Anglo-Saxon past and reflect contemporary realities of Norman society. The Lives of Saints Oda, Dunstan and Oswald, newly edited here with a modern English translation, provide many insights into the wider political history of the pre- and post-Conquest periods, as well as important evidence for the cults of the saints in Canterbury andWorcester.
First published in 1884, this is an important authority on the life of St Anselm and Canterbury history, 1060-1126.
This is an edition of Edmer of Canterbury's 12th-century Vita Sancti Wilfridi. The introduction examines the influence of 12th century ecclesiastical politics on the development of the cult of St Wilfrid.
