Zustand: Gut. pp.187-208. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With dedication of the author. - Slightly creased at staple, name of the author handwritten on cover, otherwise very good and clean. - From the text: The following article explores one way of using Latin sources to increase our understanding and appreciation of the surviving corpus of vernacular prose hagiography in Anglo-Saxon England. Although the saints legends in prose make up a significant portion of the Old English literary remains, they have been relatively neglected in comparison with the saints legends in Old English verse, such as Andreas, Guthlac A and Guthlac B, and Cynewulfs Elene. As the standard bibliographies reveal well enough, the prose texts have been studied mainly from the perspectives of language, stylistics, codicology and basic Quellenforschung, and much less than the verse texts for their literary, historical or broadly cultural interest. This is particularly true of the twenty-nine anonymous legends, some of which are not readily accessible in printed versions, and most of which need re-editing. But even the hagiographie writings of Ælfric, which are better known, have been read only occasionally for their narrative content per se. Primary emphasis has fallen instead on Ælfrics considerable stylistic and prosodic achievements. Moreover, the two most recent monographs on Ælfrics intellectual and doctrinal concerns hardly touch on his saints legends.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - This collection brings together a dozen, mostly anonymous Middle English hagiographies about nine saints, dating from the thirteenth to fifteenth centuries. The edition is organized into seven parts, in which saints represent an era of Christian history: Andrew denotes the missionary apostles of the first century; the soldier George depicts a period of martyrdom and persecution; church father Jerome portrays the late antique age of patristic learning; the penitent prostitute Thais illustrates the desert hermits; abbot Benedict and the virgin Scholastica epitomize the monastic culture of the early Middle Ages; the bishop and missionary Austin exemplifies the establishment of national churches; and the mendicant Francis embodies a late-medieval evangelical revival of apostolic poverty. The only exception is the fictional Julian the Hospitaller. Most of these vernacular texts are excerpted from the popular South English Legendary, though some circulated independently, and they cover an impressive breadth of English dialects, from Older Scots and Anglo-Irish to London and the Midlands.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Sainted Women of the Dark Ages makes available the lives of eighteen Frankish women of the sixth and seventh centuries, all of whom became saints. Written in Latin by contemporaries or near contemporaries, and most translated here for the first time, these biographies cover the period from the fall of the Roman Empire and the conversion of the invading Franks to the rise of Charlemagne's family.Three of these holy women were queens who turned to religion only after a period of intense worldly activity. Others were members of the Carolingian family, deeply implicated in the political ambitions of their male relatives. Some were partners in the great Irish missions to the pagan countryside and others worked for the physical salvation of the poor. From the peril and suffering of their lives they shaped themselves as paragons of power and achievement. Beloved by their sisters and communities for their spiritual gifts, they ultimately brought forth a new model of sanctity.These biographies are unusually authentic. At least two were written by women who knew their subjects, while others reflect the direct testimony of sisters within the cloister walls. Each biography is accompanied by an introduction and notes that clarify its historical context. This volume will be an excellent source for students and scholars of women's studies and early medieval social, religious, and political history.…
