There is no published account of the history of religious women in
England before the Norman Conquest. Yet, female saints and
abbesses, such as Hild of Whitby or Edith of Wilton, are among the
most celebrated women recorded in Anglo-Saxon sources and their
stories are of popular interest. This book offers the first general
and critical assessment of female religious communities in early
medieval England. It transforms our understanding of the different
modes of religious vocation and institutional provision and thereby
gives early medieval women's history a new foundation.
