The charters from the archive of St Augustine's Abbey, many very
early indeed, provide crucial evidence about the history of the
Anglo-Saxon church in Kent and the development of the documentary
in process. A high proportion of the thirty-nine pre-Conquest
charters which are edited in this volume, together with fourteen
from another early foundation at Minster-in-Thanet, date from the
seventh and eighth centuries.
The editor's Introduction sets the documents in their historical
and diplomatic contexts and analyses the extent and nature of the
contamination by later medieval scholars of the abbey. A detailed
commentary is also provided on each text and important topics such
as lost charter, the sequence of abbots, Kentish Kings and so on
are discussed in seperate appendices.
This is the largest and most important collection to be published
in the Anglo-Saxon Charters series.
