The forty-fourth volume of Anglo-Saxon England contains three
contributions on religious culture in eighth-century Northumbria,
one discussing the conception of church buildings, one linking Bede
and John of Beverley, and a comparison of Miracula Nynie episcopi
and Arator. A discussion of the historical context of the battle of
the Winwoed is complemented by a reconsideration of a literary work
which influenced modern perceptions of King Edward the Confessor.
Old English prose is represented by an analysis of the preface of
Bede's Ecclesiastical History, and an examination of AElfric's
treatment of the apostles. Old English poetry is covered by a
contribution making the case for a new approach to the texts, and
one addressing the riddles in the Exeter Book. This volume also
covers military organization throughout the period, the practice of
penance in the late eleventh century, and the discovery of an
Anglo-Saxon hoard near Buckingham in 2014.
