Description
Bede's Ecclesiastical History of the English Nation is a historical account of the early Christian church in England, written by the Northumbrian monk Bede in the 8th century. The book covers the period from the arrival of the first Christian missionaries in England in the 6th century to the early 8th century, and provides a detailed account of the spread of Christianity in England, the establishment of monasteries and the lives of the saints. Bede's work is considered to be one of the most important historical sources for early medieval England, and is also a significant piece of literature in its own right. It is written in Latin and consists of five books, each of which covers a different period in English history. The first book covers the period from the arrival of the Romans to the arrival of the first Christian missionaries, while the second book covers the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons to Christianity. The third book covers the period from the death of Gregory the Great to the death of Edwin of Northumbria, while the fourth book covers the period from the death of Edwin to the death of Bede's own patron, King Ceolwulf of Northumbria. The fifth book covers the period from the death of Ceolwulf to the time of Bede's writing.Bede's Ecclesiastical History is an important source for the study of early medieval England, providing valuable insights into the social, religious and political history of the period. It is also an important work of literature, with Bede's elegant Latin prose and his skill as a storyteller making the book an engaging and enjoyable read.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
