An edition of two Old English versions of the colourful legend of St Margaret of Antioch.
This book presents the two Old English versions of the colourful legend of the virgin martyr, St Margaret of Antioch, who became one of the most widely celebrated of medieval saints and the patron saint of childbirth. The two extant vernacular lives are published together, edited with a facing translation and commentary and introduced by extensive coverage of background sources, the state of the manuscripts, their language and the growth of the cult of St Margaret in Anglo-Saxon England. In addition there are printed fragments of a third version of the life and a Latin text from an Anglo-Saxon manuscript. The approach allows the reader to trace the early reception history of the texts and the way they developed over time, showing their significance as products of late Anglo-Saxon culture.
Review quote:
'The editors have carried out painstaking and thorough research, and their efforts have yielded important results - There is much of interest in this edition from the presentation of the texts themselves to the broader contextualizing of the legend in Anglo-Saxon and European traditions. This volume will be the first point of reference for any future work on the Margaret legend.' Journal of Ecclesiastical History
