A scholar of international standing from an early period of the Anglo-Saxon church [c.672-732], he was the author not only of the well-known Ecclesiastical History of the English People, but also of scriptural commentaries, hagiographies, scientific works, admonitory letters, and poetry. This book provides an informative, comprehensive, and up-to-date guide to Bede and his writings, underlining in particular his importance in the development of European history and culture. It places Bede in his contemporary Northumbria and early Anglo-Saxon England, dedicates individual chapters to his works, and includes a chapter on Bede's legacy for subsequent history. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e GEORGE HARDIN BROWN is Professor of English emeritus, Stanford University.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e George Hardin Brown\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1843836092\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781843836094\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Boydell Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/16\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 180\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.57lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.38d","brand":"George Hardin Brown","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44129634156799,"sku":"9781843836094","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8ed077af-faa4-41d8-b824-ef3e8ec323de.jpg?v=1687464970","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-companion-to-bede-george-hardin-brown-9781843836094","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
