The Life of King Edward who Rests at Westminster
Author: Frank BarlowPublisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 9780198202035
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 268
Book Description
The anonymous Life of King Edward written about the time of the Norman Conquest, is an important and intriguing source for the history of Anglo-Saxon England in the years just before 1066. It provides a fascinating account of Edward the Confessor and his family, including his wife Edith, his father-in-law Earl Godwin, and the queen's brothers Tostig and Harold (who became king in 1066). The foundations of the legend of St. Edward the Confessor are apparent from the version of the work supplied by the unique manuscript of circa 1100. Barlow explores the problems raised by this anonymous and now incomplete manuscript and examines the development of the cult of St. Edward. He also investigates the life and works of Goscelin of St. Bertin, a possible author. For this second edition, Barlow has not only undertaken a complete revision of the book, but recent discoveries have enabled him to reconstruct in part the lacunae in BL Harley MS 526 with texts closer to the original.

Book Description
The portrait of a viscount in women's clothing from the colonial government of New York addresses the climate of political corruption, conspiracy, slander, and rumormongering prevalent in his times. Also addressed are the postwar American Whig tendencies to completely discount colonial benevolence and well-kept provincial politics in favor of scorn and derision of the British colonial government.
