Old English Lives of Saints, a series composed in the 990s by the
Benedictine monk Aelfric in his distinctive alliterative prose,
portrays an array of saints-including virgin martyrs, married
virgins, aristocrats, kings, soldiers, and bishops-for a late
Anglo-Saxon audience. At a turbulent time when England was under
increasingly severe Viking attack, the examples of these saints
modeled courageous faith, self-sacrifice, and individual and
collective resistance. The Lives also covers topics as diverse as
the four kinds of war, the three orders of society, and whether the
unjust can be exempt from eternal punishment. Aelfric intended this
series to complement his Catholic Homilies, two important and
widely disseminated collections used for preaching to lay people
and clergy. The translation is presented alongside a new edition of
Lives of Saints, for which all extant manuscripts have been
collated afresh.
This book is the first of 3 volumes about the Armanen tradition
containing the best and most significant teachings, practices and
rituals of the Armanen masters Guido von List, F. B. Marby, R. J.
Gorsleben, S. A. Kummer and others, including material which has
not previously been translated into English. Avery explains many
aspects of the Armanen beliefs and practices which have not been
made clear until now and also works toward the continued
development of Armanism to its natural conclusions. Avery relates
the esoteric significance of the Black Sun and its place in
Armanism. Avery also compares Armanism to modern heathenry and
presents the Armanen tradition in a practical format for modern
heathens, with rituals in modern English, German and Old Norse.
Volume I contains the background and beliefs of the Armanen
masters. Volume II covers the exercises of the Armanen masters and
the complete curriculum of the Gothic Armanen Gild. Volume III
contains Armanen rituals from the early 20th century to the
present.
