Product Description

This book examines the ‘fall of the angels’ tradition in early medieval sermons, saints’ lives, legal documents and Old English biblical poetry. It argues that Anglo-Saxon authors adapted apocryphal and patristic accounts in ways that allowed them to express their ideas concerning ecclesiastical and secular power. -- .
