Ælfric of Eynsham 
Delphi Collected Works of Ælfric of Eynsham Illustrated [EPUB ebook] 

Ủng hộ

The tenth century abbot Aelfric of Eynsham is considered the greatest Anglo-Saxon author of his time. He wrote both to instruct the monks and to spread the learning of the monastic revival. His ‘Homilies’ provided orthodox sermons, based on the Church Fathers. He also composed a celebrated ‘Lives of the Saints’, the ‘Hexateuch’ (a vernacular language version of the first seven books of the Bible), as well as important treatises on religious theory. Delphi’s Medieval Library provides e Readers with rare and precious works of the Middle Ages, with noted English translations and the original texts. This e Book presents Ælfric’s collected works, with illustrations, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
