Description
This first edition of the Anglo-Saxon archive of the Benedictine monastery at Peterborough includes royal diplomas, an Old English will and a series of spectacular post-Conquest forgeries. The earlier documents overturn our understanding of an earlier house known as Medeshamstede, and shed light on the fate of the East Midlands under Danish rule.
this volume provides further evidence of the level of expertise achieved by Kelly and her team of scholars, all of whom are engaged in the project to edit the entire corpus of Anglo-Saxon charters ... the fourteen volumes which have already been published allow one to appreciate what an important tool the complete set will be for anyone interested in Anglo-Saxon history.
