She traces the continuing influence of Bede, the greatest of early medieval English historians, from his death to the sixteenth century. Bede's clarity and authority were welcomed by generations of monastic historians. At the other end is a humble fourteenth-century chronicle produced at Lynn with little to add other than a few local references."--Bloomsbury Publishing.LegendsEnglandMonasteriesEnglandHistoriographyOral traditionEnglandHistoryTo 1500General & world historyEnglandCivilization1066-1485EnglandHistoriographyGreat BritainHistoryMedieval period, 1066-1485HistoriographyLegendsMonasteriesHistoriography.Oral traditionHistory942.03Gransden Antonia1478020UtOrBLWUtOrBLWBOOK9910785184903321Legends, traditions, and history in medieval England3693569UNINA
