Volume 1, published in 1879, contains four lives of St Wilfrid (c.634–c.710) as well as lives of other early bishops. The most important life is that by Aeddi, a Northumbrian who travelled with Wilfrid and wrote his account soon after the saint's death. It contains material not found elsewhere, is too early to have been influenced by Bede, and was closely modelled on the life of St Cuthbert of Lindisfarne. Also included are lives of bishops John (d.721) and Oswald (d.992), and Alcuin's verse account of the saints and bishops of York. Raine's preface gives an account of the ecclesiastical history of York and of the manuscript sources he used. English side-notes to the Latin text are also provided.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003ePreface\u003cbr\u003e Vita Wilfridi episcopi auctore Eddio Stephano\u003cbr\u003e Vita sancti Wilfridi auctore Fridegoda\u003cbr\u003e Vita Wilfridi episcopi auctore Eadmero\u003cbr\u003e Breviloquium vitae sancti Wilfridi (auctore Eadmero?)\u003cbr\u003e Appendix\u003cbr\u003e Vita sancti Johannis, episcopi Eboracensis, auctore Folcardo\u003cbr\u003e Miracula sancti Johannis, Eboracensis episcopi\u003cbr\u003e Appendix\u003cbr\u003e De pontificibus et sanctis ecclesiae Eboracensis carmen, auctore Alcuino\u003cbr\u003e Vita Oswaldi archiepiscopi Eboracensis.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: British \u0026amp; Irish history [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on British \u0026amp; Irish history\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22British%20\u0026amp;%20Irish%20history%20%5BHBJD1%5D%22\"\u003eHBJD1\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46266097271064,"sku":"9781108051552","price":45.69,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781108051552i_737e3621-06a7-4308-8d21-fbbaea221c01.jpg?v=1696747058","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-historians-of-the-church-of-york-and-its-archbishops-paperback-9781108051552","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
