Description

This scholarly work reconstructs the late Anglo-Saxon history of the Church of Worcester during a pivotal period spanning from Bishop Waerferth through Bishop Wulfstan II. The book provides detailed analysis of episcopal succession and the relationships between bishops and the cathedral community, tracing how these institutional dynamics shaped religious life in the region. A central focus examines the development of Worcester's landed estate, including its extent, organisation and the crucial eleventh-century efforts to preserve and sometimes manipulate records of past land transactions. By studying these documentary practices and property management strategies, the author illuminates how medieval institutions used memory and record-keeping to consolidate power and maintain continuity across generations. Essential reading for scholars of early medieval English church history and institutional development.
