The Homiletic Writings of Archbishop Wulfstan: A Critical Study. By Joyce Tally Lionarons
The phrase ‘homiletic writings’ is judiciously chosen: it just isn't possible to separate the corpus of Wulfstan's sermons from his other writings. As Patrick Wormald put it, ‘his earlier laws are heavily homiletic, and his later homilies are very like laws’. Archbishop of York from 1002 t...

As well as drafting laws and edicts for both Æthelred II and Cnut, he was a canny administrator who sorted out the estates held by Worcester (for which he set in hand the first extant English cartulary) and York (memoranda of some of York's holdings in Wulfstan's own hand are among the additional pages at the end of the York Gospels). |
