First English translation, with new edition, of a crucial text.
While it retains many of the trappings of a traditional saint's
life, the Historia de Sancto Cuthberto is also a remarkable record
of the political activities and property acquisitions of a powerful
Anglo-Saxon monastery, and it vividly demonstrates the ongoing
relationship between the monks and their patron saint. Written in
Northumbria in the tenth or eleventh century, the Historia presents
a striking contrast with earlier lives of Cuthbertsuch as Bede's,
and is a valuable teaching text. The present edition is the first
to make use of all three surviving manuscripts of the Historia, and
is also the first English translation of this brief but
importanttext. It includes a reassessment of the text's purpose and
date, a detailed historical commentary, excerpts of related texts,
and a discussion of the patrimony of St Cuthbert, including maps of
estates and a catalogue of the morethan one hundred vills listed in
the text. TED JOHNSON SOUTH is Associate Professor of History,
Western New England College.
