Bede (c. 673-735) was Anglo-Saxon England's most prominent scholar,
and his body of work is among the most important intellectual
achievements of the entire Middle Ages. Bede and the Future brings
together an international group of Bede scholars to examine a
number of questions about Bede's attitude towards, and ideas about,
the time to come. This encompasses the short-term future (Bede's
own lifetime and the time soon after his death) and the end of
time. Whilst recognising that these temporal perspectives may not
be completely distinct, the volume shows how Bede's understanding
of their relationship undoubtedly changed over the course of his
life. Each chapter examines a distinct aspect of the subject,
whilst at the same time complementing the other essays, resulting
in a comprehensive and coherent volume. In so doing the volume asks
(and answers) new questions about Bede and his ideas about the
future, and will undoubtedly stimulate further research in this
field.
