Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a historic text that provides one of the most profound and comprehensive looks at Britain's ancient and medieval history. It was composed by the great Benedictine scholar, the Venerable Bede, beginning in the year 731 AD. His life of scholarship in the twin monasteries of Monkwearmouth and Jarrow provided him with the opportunity to gather first-hand knowledge about the history of the inhabitants of the British Isles. His central work, Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum, illuminates the reader about the religious and political development of the people and their leaders up to his time and provides the bedrock for any modern understanding of Anglo-Saxon Britain. His scholarly approach, gathering sources and information from across the country and beyond, helped to inform the historical understanding of later medieval and Renaissance scholars, including Geoffrey of Monmouth. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
