Goscelin's Legend of Edith and 'Liber Confortatorius'. Edited by Stephanie Hollis with W. R. Bames, Rebecca Hayward, Kathleen Loncar, and Michael Wright. This volume contains annotated translations of Goscelin's texts, with nine essays about his life and work. This volume brings together two closely related works by an important but little studied late eleventh-century author, Goscelin of Saint-Bertin. His Liber confortatorius (the earliest work of spiritual instruction for a female recluse known to have been written in England) is addressed to Eve. Goscelin, who may have been a chaplain at Wilton, had been Eve?s spiritual mentor since her childhood. Eve, however, left Wilton in her early twenties to become a recluse in Angers without even informing him of her plans, and in the Liber confortatorius, written in the form of an extended letter (c. 1082), Goscelin attempts to reassert and reconfigure their former close relationship. Goscelin's account of the life and translation of St Edith, who was a member of the Wilton community until her death (in c. 986) at the age of twenty-three, was commissioned by the Wilton nuns and based on their oral report. Completed in c. 1080, the Legend gives a portrait of Edith and her mother Abbess Wulfthryth, and an account of the community?s posthumous relationship with its saint up until the time that Goscelin began work on it. It is (with the exception of Goscelin?s Life of Wulfhild of Barking) our only near contemporary narrative account of a late Anglo-Saxon women?s community. The essays in this collection present a closely integrated account of some of the most central and striking aspects of the two texts.

The essays in this collection present a closely integrated account of some of the most central and striking aspects of the two texts. The essays and accompanying translations are the result of a collaborative research project undertaken at The University of Auckland. Contributors: W.R. Barnes, Rebecca Hayward, Kathleen Loncar, and Michael Wright This collection of essays and translations brings together two closely related works by an important but little studied late eleventh-century author, Goscelin of Saint-Bertin. Over 30 hagiographical and polemical works are attributed to him, with varying degrees of certainty; about half of these are lives of Anglo-Saxon women saints, many of them still unedited. His "Legend of Edith is of exceptional historical value—apart from Bede's "History, this represents the only near contemporary narrative account of Anglo-Saxon women's communities that we have. Goscelin is chiefly known as the author of "Liber confortatorius, one of the earliest surviving works of spiritual instruction addressed to a female recluse (c.1082). Written at a time when the solitary religious life was only just beginning to undergo a new wave of popularity, Goscelin's works are remarkably forward looking in their conception of the religious life as an interior and individual relationship with the deity. The essays in this collection draw the two texts into a close relationship and present a closely integrated account of some of their most striking and central aspects.
