Nothing Pure
We are cautioned not to judge a book by its cover, but when faced with a monograph on Old English Biblical translation fronted by Gustav Klimt's 1901 painting Judith with the Head of Holofernes, one might be forgiven for expecting something unconventional. Mo Pareles's new book concerns what they label “supersessionary translation,” “a philosophy of interlinguistic and cultural translation that not only refers to but also models Christianity's tr…
Bede, Æthelberht, and the ‘examples of the Romans’ in early medieval England
In Book II, Chapter 5 of the Historia ecclesiastica , Bede writes that the Kentish king Æthelberht had, ‘with the advice of his counsellors, established legal enactments according to the examples of the Romans.’ This article argues that Bede’s formulation serves as a means of characterizing the increasingly interventionist role played by early Kentish kings in making the laws issued in their names
The Legacy of Gildas
Archbishop Wulfstan of York and the Danish Conquest of 1016
Wulfstan, archbishop of York (1002–1023) and bishop of Worcester (1002–1016), occupies a pre-eminent place in the political history of eleventh-century England, yet surprisingly little is known of his life and career. The consequences of this ignorance are particularly acute for the years surrounding the Danish Conquest of 1016. The upheavals of this period led Wulfstan to compose his most well-known homily, the Sermo lupi ad Anglos (1014), resig…
Scholars Come for the Archbishop
The purpose of this article is to provide a synoptic view of what Patrick Wormald has aptly called the ‘rather odd’ history of Wulfstan scholarship. In doing so, it will also consider how our understanding of Wulfstan and his writings has been shaped by the historical reliance on stylistic analysis, both as an objective instrument to reconstruct his canon and as a methodological practice subject to personal biases, ideological trends and historic…
The Chronicle of Andres, by Abbot William of Andres
Lying and Perjury in Medieval Practical Thought
Law and legal culture in Anglo‐Saxon England
The reception and study of pre‐Conquest legal texts can never be fully disentangled from the historical and political contexts within which they transpired. Indeed, the historiography of early English law has been shaped as much by the desires, prejudices and ideological commitments of its historians as it has by the texts themselves. Modern scholarship has not ‘risen above’ its predecessors but is instead guided (and at times governed) by the hi…
Wulfstan at London
Over the past seventy-five years, scholarship on the writings of Archbishop Wulfstan of York has evolved into one of the most active sub-fields of Anglo-Saxon studies. Yet for all the attention paid to Wulfstan's accomplishments as homilist, lawmaker and statesman, the earliest phase of his career, his tenure as bishop of London from 996 to 1002, has yet to be the subject of any sustained scholarly consideration. This article re-examines the reco…
The One-Sex Body on Trial
Kingship, Legislation and Power in Anglo-Saxon England
The relationship between Anglo-Saxon kingship, law, and the functioning of power is explored via a number of different angles. The essays collected here focus on how Anglo-Saxon royal authority was expressed and disseminated, through laws, delegation, relationships between monarch and Church, and between monarchs at times of multiple kingships and changing power ratios. Specific topics include the importance of kings in consolidating the English …
