This will also give you access to the current version of the database, which is searchable in many ways. Find out more about the project from our website. I was a founder-member of the Fontes Anglo-Saxnici project, and with Professor Malcolm Godden in Oxford held a three-year research grant for this project from the Arts and Humanities Research Council. I am also work on the Reform consuetudinary, the Regularis Concordia, the interface between the monastic and secular church, and the work of bishops such as Wulfstan and Leofric. These issue raise major questions about the way in which we identify and categorise sources, and lead me also to work on the manuscripts and textual traditions of the Anglo-Latin exegete Bede and Carolingian authors and compilers. In studying the vernacular writings of Ælfric, I examine the ways in which he accessed patristic material through Carolingian compilations, his modes of composition, and his interaction with a complex and well-established intertextual tradition.
My research interests are chiefly in the Anglo-Saxon Benedictine Reform and its impact on ecclesiastical and cultural life. Summary: Anglo-Saxon Benedictine Reform and its impact on ecclesiastical and cultural life. Emeritus Professor of Medieval Literature, University of Leeds
