How a Widow Becomes a Witch: Land, Loss and Law in Charter S. 1377
This essay takes a close look at the events related in Sawyer charter 1377, a late tenth-century account of the execution of a widow, probably for alleged witchcraft, on the south-eastern border of the collapsing Danelaw, and the subsequent real estate deals that her death enabled. The executed widow from this event survives now as a barely legible hapax legomenon, existing only in trace form in a twelfth-century copy of a tenth-century charter –…

This article discusses the unfinished mappa mundi found in Cambridge, Corpus Christi College 265, dates it to a late-eleventh-century ( c. 1065–95) production in Worcester, identifying it as a nearly exact and earlier analogue of two later twelfth-century English maps of the world from the Ramsey area (Oxford, St John's College 17 and London, British Library, Harley 3667). Contained as it is in a collection of Wulfstanian materials, the Worcester…
The Virtual Reality of the Anglo-Saxon Mappamundi
Reading the eleventh-century Anglo-Saxon mappamundi– the oldest such English map surviving – as a form of a virtual world more analogous to the digital environment of virtual reality than physical geography can reveal much about this famous map's cultural mechanics and meaning. As more than simply a measurement of the world known to Anglo-Saxon England, the Cotton Map charts a number of struggles between the twin realities of England's marginal l…
