The NUI lecture series was established in 1957 and continued until 1986. Due to a lack of funds, there was a gap of some years, but the NUI Senate was pleased to be able to revive the series, to be presented annually in each of the NUI Constituent Universities in rotation, as and from 1999. The O'Donnell Lecture 1999, the 28th in the series, was also the first O'Donnell Lecture to be delivered at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth. The 29th Lecture was delivered by Professor J. J. Lee in University College Cork - National University of Ireland, Cork, and the 30th by Professor Tom Bartlett of University College Dublin - National University of Ireland, Dublin (published 2002). Lectures in this series are now published with funds from the NUI Publications Scheme. The full list of O'Donnell Lectures is included on page 17.

In it, I study the hagiographies written about the royal female saints of Ely by the Flemish monk Goscelin of Saint-Bertin in the late eleventh century as a form of postcolonial literature and memory creation. Goscelin was a renowned writer of Anglo-Saxon saints’ lives. Through his hagiographies he not only created images of England’s Christian past that emphasized its pious, sophisticated rulers and close ties to the papacy, he engaged in political commentary and criticism.

    UCLA UCLA Previously Published Works Title Hybrid forms: translating Boethius in Anglo-Saxon England Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/23z397sz Author Weaver, Erica Publication Date 2016-12-01 DOI 10.1017/s0263675100080273 Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Hybrid Forms: Translating Boethius in Anglo-Saxon England Erica Weaver Critics have long wondered about the setting and intent of the Old English translation of Boethius’s De consolatione philosophiae, first into prose and then into prosimetrum. This article situates the dual translation within the broader context of ninth- and tenth-century literary culture, challenging the received view of the two versions as separate projects and arguing instead that the Old English Boethius was conceived and received as a vernacular opus geminatum, or ‘twinned work’. While the opus geminatum and the prosimetrum are generally thought to maintain distinct generic identities, this case study allows for a more capacious understanding of both modes, which I demonstrate were inescapably linked in Anglo-Saxon circles – and which were shaped by a broader aesthetic of prose-verse mixture. Bede’s Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum contains what is undoubtedly the most famous surviving story of an Anglo-Saxon poet, the illiterate cowherd Cædmon, whose divine inspiration is supposed to have initiated a new strain of vernacular, Christian poetry, and who continues to provoke an unending series of questions about Anglo-Saxon poetic communities.1 But Bede’s history also contains a less famous anecdote about a poet, just as illuminating for Anglo-Saxon conceptions of genre and translation. In his discussion of the works of Aldhelm, abbot of Malmesbury and later bishop of Sherborne (d.

  • Canterbury Manuscripts in Lambeth Palace Library Introduction This
    Canterbury manuscripts in Lambeth Palace Library Introduction This information was compiled by Teresa Lane (The Courtauld Institute of Art) during a placement as part of the CHASE programme in 2018-19 which reviewed methods for describing the Library’s medieval manuscripts. A group of books – the Canterbury manuscripts – was selected and a catalogue of these manuscripts created. This augments the existing catalogue by M. R. James, A Descriptive Catalogue of the Manuscripts in the Library of Lambeth Palace: The Medieval Manuscripts (1932), copies of which entries are available in the Library’s online catalogue: https://archives.lambethpalacelibrary.org.uk/CalmView These new descriptions below comprise headings in the existing catalogue, supplemented with those used by the British Library catalogue. In particular, the James descriptions of decoration have been enriched and certain gaps filled. Where scholars post-James have questioned dating or attribution this has been highlighted – for example, MSS 3 and 200 – and bibliographic information has been updated. The descriptions below also indicate where images from these manuscripts were produced by the Courtauld Institute, and which are available in the Library’s online image system, LUNA: http://images.lambethpalacelibrary.org.uk However, please note that the image system is updated with new images, so images may become available which are additional to this inventory. These digital images are additional to the microfilm copies of the manuscripts recorded in the main archives catalogue. N. R. Ker in Medieval Libraries of Great Britain. A List of Surviving Books (London, 1964) and Supplement to the Second Edition (1987) identifies thirty Canterbury manuscripts in the collection which emanated from the libraries of the Benedictine Cathedral Priory of Christ Church and the Benedictine Priory of St Augustine’s.

  • A History of St. Augustine's Monastery, Canterbury
    H Distort of St Huaustine's Monastery Canterbury. BY The Reverend R. J. E. BOGGIS, B.D. Sub- Warden of St. A ugustinfs College. Canterbury : CROSS & JACKMAN, 1901. PREFACE. Churchman or the Antiquarian cannot but feel THEa pang of regret as he turns over the pages of such a work as Dugdale's Monasticon, and notes the former glories of the Religious Houses of England before the hand of the spoliator, had consigned them to desecration and ruin. Some of these homes of religion and learning have entirely disappeared, while others are represented by fragments of buildings that are fast crumbling to decay; and among these latter possibly even among the former would have been counted St. Augustine's, had it not been for the pious and public-spirited action of Mr. A. J. Beresford Hope, who in 1844 purchased part of the site of the ancient Abbey, and gave it back to the Church of England with its buildings restored and adapted for the require- ments of a Missionary College. The outburst of en- thusiasm that accompanied this happy consummation of the efforts of the Reverend Edward Coleridge is still remembered not a few devout Church by people ; and there are very many besides, who rejoice in the fresh lease of life that has thus been granted to the PREFACE. old Foundation, and are interested in the service that is now being here rendered to the English Church of modern times. Such persons may like to have the opportunity of tracing the varied fortunes of the St. Augustine's of former ages, and I have therefore en- deavoured to set forth a sketch of its history during the 940 years of its existence as a Religious House, till the day when the Crown took possession of the Church's property, and "St.

  • Hwaetberht, Sicgfrith and the Reforming of Wearmouth and Jarrow
    1 Hwaetberht, Sicgfrith and the Reforming of Wearmouth and Jarrow Abstract: This paper builds upon recent scholarship, exploring how Wearmouth-Jarrow, founded as a ‘family monastery’ in the mainstream of early medieval Northumbrian monasticism, reformed itself to become the proto-Benedictine bastion of correct behaviour described in Bede’s Lives of the Abbots and the anonymous Life of Ceolfrith. The understudied abbots Hwaetberht and Sicgfrith appear to be at the heart of this process. Their careers and actions suggest the existence of a party at Wearmouth-Jarrow opposed to the dominance of the founder’s kin-group and wishing to reform the monastery on Benedictine lines. This party triumphed only in 716, when Hwaetberht became abbot. We probably know more about Wearmouth-Jarrow than any other monastery from the Northumbrian ‘Golden Age’. That is partly because of the hugely important archaeological excavations which took place at the sites of both St Peter’s, Wearmouth, and St Paul’s, Jarrow, during the last century;1 but a surprising number of texts concerning the foundation of the monastery and the lives of its early abbots have also survived which provide an insight into the first stages of Wearmouth-Jarrow’s history. Best known is the Historia abbatum of Wearmouth-Jarrow’s most famous son, Bede. Alongside this one can set his homily on Wearmouth’s founder Benedict Biscop (Homily I.13) and the anonymous Vita Ceolfridi, detailing the life of Biscop’s successor.2 Such a wealth of written material does not exist for any other early Anglo-Saxon house, but it has created its own challenges for interpreting the early history of Wearmouth and Jarrow.
