PROJECT OUTLINE<\/span><\/p>\n

The North of England is noted for its high number of celebrated Anglo-Saxon saints: Cuthbert, Oswald, Wilfrid of York, John of Beverley, Aebbe of Coldingham, Bega, and others, and for further twelfth-century episcopal, monastic, and eremitic saints modelled on these earlier figures. This project will investigate the extent to which devotion to these northern saints persists in late medieval England, and will explore the implications of such devotions for regional and national cultures, acknowledging that the two may exercise contending pulls. It will draw upon a range of textual materials: fourteenth- and fifteenth-century saints\u2019 lives and legendaries in Middle English, Latin, and Anglo-Norman, and manuscript collections of northern hagiographies, as well some evidence from the material culture of that period: stained glass programmes, statuary, revisions to shrine architecture, and so forth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
