| Summary: | Like many volumes of collected essays, this includes both discrete and interrelated pieces. Five papers (first published between 1995 and 2006) are devoted mainly to the relationship between Bede and the biblical manuscript Codex Amiatinus, which was written at Wearmouth–Jarrow. One of them argues that the gospel capitula preserved in Amiatinus (derived from a manuscript brought to England by Benedict Biscop) were used by Bede as a model for his own capitula to other biblical books. Otherwise the focus is on the construction of Amiatinus and particularly its illustrations of Ezra and the Tabernacle, which can be related closely to Bede's writings on these biblical subjects. |
