Vita Sancti Wilfridi : a Probe into Early-Medieval Anglo-Latin Hagiography In The Middle Ages

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Written before 720, Vita Sancti Wilfridi by Stephen of Ripon is a significant work of the earliest medieval Anglo-Latin hagiography composed in the British Isles. It presents the life of bishop Wilfrid, a controversial personality, a very influential man, an abbot, a bishop of York, and the main supporter and promoter of the Roman way of Christianity at the synod at Whitby in 664. On the basis of an analysis of selected parts of the Vita, the paper attempts to examine the approaches of the hagiographer towards the life story of the saint in question which are reflected in the rhetoric of the hagiography. Attention is also paid to commonplaces typical of hagiography as such. The paper focuses on specific features of Vita Sancti Wilfridi in comparison with the Venerable Bede’s Vita Sancti Cuthberti in prose, another work of contemporary Anglo-Latin hagiography.
