Download or read book Leaders of the Anglo-Saxon Church written by Alexander R. Rumble and published by Boydell Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essays bring out the important and complex roles played by Anglo-Saxon churchmen, including Bede and lesser-known figures. Both episcopal and abbatial authority were of fundamental importance to the development of the Christian church in Anglo-Saxon England. Bishops and heads of monastic houses were invested with a variety of types of power and influence. Their actions, decisions, and writings could change not only their own institutions, but also the national church, while their interaction with the king and his court affected wider contemporary society. Theories of ecclesiastical leadership were expounded in contemporary texts and documents. But how far did image or ideal reflect reality? How much room was there for individuals to use their office to promote new ideas? The papers in this volumeillustrate the important roles played by individual leading ecclesiastics in England, both within the church and in the wider political sphere, from the late seventh to the mid eleventh century. The undeniable authority of Bede and Bishop Æthelwold is demonstrated but also the influence of less-familiar figures such as Bishop Wulfsige of Sherborne, Archbishop Ecgberht of York and St Leoba. The book draws on both textual and material evidence to show the influence (by both deed and reputation) of powerful personalities not only on the developing institutions of the English church but also on the secular politics of their time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leaders of the Canadian Church The church has lost immeasurably in not hav ing retained for her people the biographies of the saints of all ages and lands. I shall not dispute the wisdom of omitting their names from the Calendar; but I mourn over their disappearance from the reading matter of all but very few. Fountains of inspiration have thus been stopped up with the debris of prejudice and neglect. One may pray with fervency for the rising up ere long of men in the anglo-saxon world, who, with due regard to historical accuracy, will recreate for us the mighty personalities of the saints of God, in days and circumstances which now seem so far away and so strange. Meantime it is our duty to make as life-like as we can the characters of the great men of yesterday - whose memories are not yet quite forgotten. Such is the purpose of this volume. Most of the sketches are written from personal know ledge. To the critics of our efforts let us acknow ledge at once that we turned our hands to this work through no conceit of literary fitness for the task - but only as impelled by a desire to do our best at breaking ground in a much neglected field.
