Description
Bede's Ecclesiastical History of England is a historical account of the Christianization of England from the Roman period to the 8th century. Written by the Venerable Bede, a monk and scholar who lived in Northumbria in the 8th century, the book is considered one of the most important works of early English literature. It is divided into five books, each covering a different period of English history, from the arrival of the Romans in Britain to the rise of the Northumbrian kingdom. The book provides a detailed account of the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons to Christianity, including the role played by missionaries such as Augustine of Canterbury and the establishment of monasteries throughout England. It also includes many biographical sketches of important figures in English history, such as King Alfred the Great and Saint Cuthbert. Bede's Ecclesiastical History of England is a valuable source of information on early English history, as well as the development of Christianity in England. It is also an important work of literature, written in a clear and engaging style that has influenced English prose for centuries. This 1907 edition includes a preface by the translator, J.A. Giles, and an introduction by the historian Edward Freeman.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
