Reviews

A book of great interest, value, and finesse of scholarship. ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEWA useful reference work. The amount of detailed document work the collection represents, particularly in the palaeographic field, will, it is to be hoped, make it a valuable quarry for the ecclesiastical history of late Anglo-Saxon England - a value which is enhanced by a generous index, a manuscript index and a good bibliography. JANE STEVENSON, MEDIUM ÆVUMNo one who studies the ecclesiastical or even the political history of late Anglo-Saxon England can now do so adequately without consulting this work... an outstanding specimen of a still too rare approach to medieval history, one that takes liturgical evidence to be of prime importance for an understanding of the periods and societies we all study. SPECULUM [Richard W. Pfaff] A most important compendium of English liturgical materials...which not merely illuminate the development of church ritual, but also corroborate and authenticate the processes of English intellectual and cultural history.
