Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lives of the English Saints The substance of the following pages is taken from the life of St. Gilbert, published in the recent Edition of Dugdale´s Monasticon, from a manuscript in the British Museum. The name of the author is unknown; it appears however incidentally that he was of the order of Sempringham, and knew St. Gilbert personally in his last days. Portions of the life have been put together from contemporary sources, as, for instance, the well known story of the nuns of Watton, taken from St. Aelred´s narrative published in Twysden´s Collection. On that story itself it may be well to say a few words. The time is now past when it was necessary to prove that monasteries were not nests of wickedness. Indeed it is high time that it should be so, for to any one who looks into the evidence for such an assertion, it is wonderful that it should ever have been made.
