Form and Content of Instruction in Anglo-Saxon England in the Light of Contemporary Manuscript Evidence

edited by Patrizia Lendianra, Loredana Lazzari and Maria Amalia D'Aronco

This volume of scholarly essays takes as its theme education (primarly monastic) in the Anglo-Saxon period, with a focus on its latter centuries. The contributors all take manuscripts as their principal form of evidence, with many of the articles being on one specific manuscript, or indeed marginal gloss. A further theme is that of medical instruction and the transmission of medical knowledge. 539p b/w and col pls (Brepols 2007)
