Eadmer of Canterbury: Lives and Miracle of Saints Oda, Dunstan, and Oswald

These texts are further celebrations of the lives and careers of eminent tenth-century archbishops and bishops. Dunstan and Oswald were central figures of the tenth-century Monastic Reform; Oda was Archbishop during the reign of Aethelstan (d. 939) and was present at 'The Battle of Brunanburh'. These texts can be read to advantage in the context of an 'Introduction to Old English' (A & B, 106-024 and 106-029).

"[T]his is a very valuable edition and translation, in particular in broadening our perspective on Eadmer's writings and in helping us to know more of his working methods." [John Hudson, Early Medieval Europe, 15.2 (2007): 250-1.]
