Originally published in 1897, this book offers a selection of writings relating to St Augustine's journey to England, and was created to mark the thirteenth centenary of the journey. The text is divided into main two sections: the first section contains documents from around the time of the journey, provided in both English translation and the original Latin; the second section contains four essays written specifically for the text, covering diverse aspects of the journey and providing background information on it. There are extensive notes throughout, together with maps and a chronological table. This informative book will be of value to anyone with an interest in Augustine, British history and the development of Christianity.
First published in 1920, this volume was written by the theologian, scholar, and canon of Canterbury Cathedral, Arthur James Mason. It was intended to bring together the known documentary evidence relating to the history of the relics of Thomas Becket. Divided into four sections, the book presents the narrative accounts of the death of Thomas Becket, the history of his tomb and the shrine dedicated to him, and the subsequent destruction of the shrine under the reign of Henry VIII. The last section, and the most significant for this study, is devoted to the discovery in 1888 of bones in the crypt of the cathedral thought to belong to Thomas Becket. The book offers a thorough overview of the evidence and circumstances of the discovery and encourages readers to draw their own conclusions.
