Meanings of Water in Early Medieval England
Water is both a practical and symbolic element. Whether a drop blessed by saintly relics or a river flowing to the sea, water formed part of the natural landscapes, religious lives, cultural expressions, and physical needs of medieval women and men.00This volume adopts an interdisciplinary perspective to enlarge our understanding of the overlapping qualities of water in early England (c. 400 - c. 1100). Scholars from the fields of archaeology, hi…

Praying the Psalms in the Ancrene Wisse
In Part One of the Ancrene Wisse, the author recommends to his female readers the daily recital of Matins from the Office of Our Lady, as well as requiring the recital of the Hours, each “as she has them written down”. This demonstrates not only the competence of the original readers in liturgical Latin, but also of the anchoresses’ deep familiarity with the text of the Psalms. This is exploited by the author, who quotes the Psalms on at least se…
Gregory the Great: Reader, Writer and Read
An episode unique to the late ninth-century Life of Gregory the Great by John the Deacon reports a famine that occurred in the year of Gregory’s death; a hostile party blamed the lavish generosity of the late pope for Rome’s suffering. The fury of the people was roused and they set out to burn Gregory’s books. However, the deacon Peter, Gregory’s familiarissimus , intervened to dissuade them, telling the people that Gregory’s works were directly …

First modern edition, with facing translation, of two of the most mysterious Old English texts extant.
Understanding numbers in London, British Library, Harley 3271
London, British Library, Harley 3271 is a composite manuscript designed for use in teaching Latin, and contains Ælfric's Grammar beside other pedagogical works. The book also contains a large number of miscellaneous items, and fourteen scribal hands. Many of the texts point to the usual interests of the Anglo-Saxon scholar in computus and prognostics, while others suggest an interest in the tradition of numerical notes. The items written by Scrib…

Poisoned places: The Avernian tradition in Old English poetry
Scholars have long disputed whether or not Beowulf reflects the influence of Classical Latin literature. This essay examines the motif of the ‘poisoned place’ present in a range of texts known to the Anglo-Saxons, most famously represented by Avernus in the Aeneid . While Grendel's mere presents the best-known poisonous locale in Old English poetry, another is found in the dense and enigmatic poem Solomon and Saturn II . The relationship between …
Grendel and the Book of Wisdom
Sceaf, Japheth and the origins of the Anglo-Saxons
The Anglo-Saxons' awareness of their cultural and racial affiliation with their continental cousins is well attested, as is their interest in the earliest migrations of their ancestors to the British Isles from the homelands of northern Europe. The founding figures who led the migrations from Europe across the North Sea had names which were preserved by oral tradition well into the Christian period, and the names of these founders of Anglo-Saxon …
