This volume in Oxford Medieval Text contains Eadmer's Lives of
Saints Oda, Dunstan, and Oswald, as well as the Miracles of Dunstan
and Oswald. These three English saints, together with AEthelwold of
Winchester, were key figures in the Benedictine revival of the
tenth century, which saw a flowering of Anglo-Saxon religious,
artistic, and literary culture. Eadmer of Canterbury
(c.1060-c.1130), the secretary, confidant, and biographer of Saint
Anselm, Archbishop of Canterbury (1033-1109), was one of the most
important historians and biographers in the period after the Norman
Conquest. His works, written in Latin, look back constantly to the
Anglo-Saxon past, while at the same time they accurately reflect
the present-day realities of the wider European society into which
England had been forcibly integrated. Manuscripts of his Lives of
the Saints circulated widely in both in England and France, but
apart from his Life of Anselm they have been little studied, and
have remained largely untranslated. The works newly edited and
translated in this edition provide many insights into the wider
political history of the pre- and post-Conquest periods, as well as
important evidence for the cults of the saints in Canterbury and
Worcester.
