Archbishop Theodore
ISBN: 9780521480772 / Angielski / Twarda / 1995 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Theodore, Archbishop of Canterbury (668SH90), shaped the English Church into a structure it has retained for a millennium.

In this book, which builds on the 1994 publication of previously unprinted Biblical commentaries from Theodore's Canterbury school, internationally distinguished scholars provide a fresh account of the career and writings of a unique personality who brought to Anglo-Saxon England the cultural heritage of Syria, Byzantium and Rome.

Aldhelm: The Prose Works
ISBN: 9781843841999 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Aldhelm, born c.640 in Wessex, and becoming abbot of Malmesbury and later bishop of Sherborne, was the first English man of letters; up to 1100, his prose writings were the most widely read of any Latin literature produced in Anglo-Saxon England. His surviving prose works include a long treatise De virginitate, and a number of letters; these in particular are an important source of knowledge concerning Anglo-Saxon England. The treatise, a lengthy exhortation on virtue addressed to nuns at Barking Abbey, is a fascinating series of exempla drawn from the prodigious range of Aldhelm's knowledge...

Byrhtferth of Ramsey was one of the most learned scholars of late Anglo-Saxon England, and his two saints' Lives-of Oswald, a powerful bishop of Worcester and York in the tenth century (d. 992), and Ecgwine, the seventh-century founder of Evesham-are among the most important historical sources for our understanding of late Anglo-Saxon England.

The Anglo-Saxon Library
ISBN: 9780199239696 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 424 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The cardinal role of Anglo-Saxon libraries in the transmission of classical and patristic literature to the later middle ages has long been recognized, for these libraries sustained the researches of those English scholars whose writings determined the curriculum of medieval schools: Aldhelm, Bede, and Alcuin, to name only the best known.

ISBN: 9789004341654 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 898 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Hilduin (c.785-c.860), abbot of Saint-Denis in Paris and archchaplain to Louis the Pious, was one of the leading scholars and administrators of the Carolingian empire. He was the first to translate the mystical Greek writings of the pseudo-Dionysius into Latin; he then identified this Dionysius with the first bishop of Paris of that name, and assigned his episcopacy and martyrdom to 96 A.D. Hilduin composed a life of St Dionysius in prose and verse: the prose work has not been edited since 1580, and the verse work - a major new Carolingian Latin poem - has never before been printed. Both...

Gildas: New Approaches
ISBN: 9780851154039 / Angielski / Twarda / 1984 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Gildas's 'De Excidio Britanniae' is the prime source of our knowledge of post-Roman Britain, but because it is such an isolated text, for which we have no obvious historical, geographical or cultural background, it is a work which raises more questions than answers. Much effort has been expended on extracting historical facts from 'De excidio', but Gildas did not set out to write history as we understand it. The common approach of the contributors to this volume is to look at tha author and his text on their own terms, for themselves rather than for the items of evidence which we can get out...

Columbanus: Studies on the Latin Writings
ISBN: 9780851156675 / Angielski / Twarda / 1997 / 326 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Columbanus (d.615), the Irish monk and founder of such important centres as Luxeuil and Bobbio, was one of the most influential figures in early medieval Europe. His fiery personality led him into conflict with Gallic bishops and Roman popes, and he defended his position on such matters as monastic discipline in a substantial corpus of Latin writings marked by burning conviction and rhetorical skill. However, the polish of his style has raised questions about the nature of his early training in Ireland and even about the authenticity of the writings which have come down to us under his name....

Latin Learning in Medieval Ireland
ISBN: 9780860782339 / Angielski / Twarda / 1988 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The field of Hiberno-Latin literature, a term coined to describe the Latin literature written in Ireland, or by Irishmen abroad, between 400 and 1500, was first defined by the late Mario Esposito. His work, too, revealed its vast extent and range, so enabling a significantly better understanding of the importance of Irish scholarship in the cultural history of the Western Middle Ages. This volume concentrates on Hiberno-Latin authors, and on texts composed in Ireland; a second collection of Espositoa s articles contains studies on Irish learning and texts written on the Continent. The great...
