For whilst the influence of the Church as an institution is widely acknowledged, its abstract theological speculation is still generally considered to be the preserve of a small educated elite. However, as this book makes clear, theology had a much greater and more significant impact in the wider Saxon world than has been realised by modern scholars.Studies in early medieval Britain.TheologyEnglandHistoryEarly church, ca. 30-600TheologyEnglandHistoryMiddle Ages, 600-1500EnglandChurch history449-1066TheologyHistoryTheologyHistory274.203Foxhall Forbes Helen.1529040MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910787506803321Heaven and earth in Anglo-Saxon England3773053UNINA
