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.
