Opis

The two texts edited here are previously unpublished accounts of the miracles of St AEbba of Coldingham and St Margaret of Scotland. They tell of the miracles performed at or in the vicinity of their shrines at Coldingham and Dunfermline in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries and illuminate the religious and social life of southern Scotland in a period for which the narrative sources are not very rich.

Recenzje

Bartlett's translation is scrupulous without sacrificing fluency: the production standards of Oxford Medieval Texts are as high as ever.
