Anonymous Interpolations in Ælfric's Lives of Saints

Edited by Robin Norris

In comparison to a wealth of knowledge about Ælfric . . . we know almost nothing about the anonymous authors of "Euphrosyne," "Eustace," "Mary of Egypt," and "The Seven Sleepers," except that, for some reason, each was interested in reading, translating and transmitting one of these four texts. Each of the four essays in this collection explores what those reasons might have been.

Ælfric of Eynsham: His Life, Times, and Writings

Helmut Gneuss, translated by Michael Lapidge

Originally delivered as a lecture at the Bayerische Akademie der Wissenschaften, this volume was published in 2002 as "Ælfric von Eynsham und seine Zeit," introducing, as Gneuss says, "an Anglo-Saxon author . . . who was the first, and for a long time the only, master of prose written in English."
