Neale's translation in JMediaval Hymns and Sequences. PREFACE account of the Saxon Cathedral at Canterbury, and of the Saxon Saints buried therein, was written primarily for new THISmembers of Archaeological Societies, as well as for general readers who might desire to learn something of its history and organiza- tion in those far-away days. The matter has been drawn from the writings of men long since passed away. Their dust lies commingled with that of their successors who lived down to the time when this ancient Religious House fell upon revolutionary days, who witnessed its dissolution as a Priory of Benedictine Monks after nine centuries devoted to the service of God, and its re-establishment as a College of secular canons. This important change, taking place in the sixteenth century, was, with certain differences, a return to the organization which existed during the Saxon period.

Quidditas 34 (2013) 29 Holy Places & Imagined Hellscapes: Qualifying Comments on Loca Sancta Sermon Studies—Christian Conversion in Northern Europe & Scandinavia, c. 500-1300 Todd P. Upton Denver, Colorado The paper uses methods from medieval sermon studies to argue that an insularity in “monastic consciousness” can be traced to earlier centuries than the more generally discussed (and better documented) scholastic environments of 13th century monastic and cathedral schools. It assesses how a monastic discourse reliant on Biblical typologies informed the Christian conversion of northern Germanic and Scandinavian peoples (c. 500-1300, including the British Isles and Iceland). Moments of encounter between Christian missionaries and pagan cultures helped delineate this discourse, most apparent in extant records that reveal Christian and Norse perceptions of geography, holy places, deity worship, and eschatological expectations.

  • J~M. in It (Kuhn 1980:5-6)
    Old English macian, Its Origin and Dissemination Sherman M. Kuhn University of Michigan Some years ago I published a study of the overlapping senses of two Middle English verbs, don and ~J~M. In it (Kuhn 1980:5-6), I observed that, whereas Old English dix was a common verb found in all known dialects of OE,’ maciax and 9amaciaa were rare--hardly to be found outside the West Saxon dialect and totally absent from OE before King Alfred’s time. I mentioned the five instances of the rare verbs in the works of Alfred and the single specimen of 9amaciaa in Caaasi.r B, a poem translated from Old Saxon, probably in the latter half of the ninth century, although it appears in a MS of about the year 1000. I suggested that OE 9a) macias had been borrowed f rom Old Saxon and was even tempted to speculate that John the Old Saxon, one of the king’s mass- priests, was Alf red’s immediate source for the words. I characterized both as WS because, from Alfred’s time to the end of the OE period, all examples that I had been able to find appeared in WS or mixed-WS texts. Since my principal concern in 19742 was the behavior of the ME verbs, I had no occasion to elaborate on the earlier history of md~an at that time. I planned, however, to present the OE and OS evidence in a separate article. I had also begun to suspect that the ultimate source of the word would be found, not in OS, but in Old High German, and I needed time to make some- thing more than a cursory examination of the OHG evidence.

  • The Corpus of Prose Saints' Lives and Hagiographic Pieces in Old English and Its Manuscript Distribution*
    The Corpus of Prose Saints' Lives and Hagiographic Pieces in Old English and its Manuscript Distribution* Alex Nicholls University of London THE MANUSCRIPT DISTRIBUTION With the corpus of Old English hagiographic prose texts now defined,95 the manuscript distribution can be investigated. The manu­ scripts are ordered in terms of the number of saints' lives they con­ tain and then by Ker number. Thus the primarily hagiographic collec­ tions in Old English are listed first, with miscellanies and fragments coming later. Witnesses of mainly fElfrician lives are presented first and subdivided into those which are primary witnesses showing the distribution of the Lives of Saints set and those representing the Catholic Homilies. So that the range of texts within a collection can be quickly assessed, the manuscript contents are shown in the order in which they appear in editions, rather than in each collection. Should the manuscript order of contents be in any way significant for this analy­ sis, this is indicated. fElfrician texts are placed first in each manu­ script breakdown and then the anonymous lives on a new line, after a colon. again to make the balance of a collection immediately clear. Damaged or fragmentary manuscripts are li sted by manuscript refer­ ence, cited in single quotation marks and descriptions of the original contents of such manuscripts are quoted. The titles of texts which are completely lost are recorded in angle brackets « ». Only St Margaret 2 no longer exists in any manuscript witnesses. When only the passio of a life is preserved and its pericope exposition omitted (although it may be preserved elsewhere), such a text is marked with an asterix.96 52 Alex Nicholls MAINLY AELFRICIAN COLLECTIONS The primary witnesses of the Lives of Saints London, British Library, Cotton Julius E.
