Reviews

'DeGregorio and Love have produced a valuable contribution to Bede studies and studies of early medieval religion more generally, making accessible and comprehensible a work that has much to say but which would otherwise invite too few readers.' James T. Palmer, Speculum


'DeGregorio and Love have produced a valuable contribution to Bede studies and studies of early medieval religion more generally, making accessible and comprehensible a work that has much to say but which would otherwise invite too few readers.' James T. Palmer, Speculum 'On First Samuel is a very welcome contribution to the Translated Texts for Historian series and to Bedan scholarship more generally. The commentary's value as a historical source is made explicit in the authors' outstanding introduction, and this book will appeal to a broad audience with diverse interests in early English culture, intellectual history, and historical theology.'Meredith Cutrer, Comitatus 52
