Margaret, saint and 11th-century Queen of the Scots, remains an
often-cited yet little-understood historical figure. Her world was
the product of perspectives and models from Nordic, Kievan,
Hungarian, Anglo-Saxon, Norman, and Scottish traditions, with all
the expectations and admonitions which they pressed upon her.
Likewise, her cult evolved within interconnected dynastic,
political, ecclesiastical, and papal agendas. This book proposes to
bridge the gap between what is known about Margaret and what has
been surmised in order to provide a contextual understanding of her
life and early cult. Catherine Keene's analysis of sources in terms
of both time and place - including her Life of Saint Margaret,
translated for the first time - allows for an informed
understanding of the forces that shaped this captivating woman.
