The Psalms in England
With Prof M J Toswel, University of Western Ontario

Tuesday 10 June, 2-3pm, Headley Lecture Theatre

This lecture introduces the Anglo-Saxon psalter, and especially the interlinear vernacular versions in Latin psalters which were a unique feature in Europe at the time, and asks whether these provide evidence for greater engagement with the psalms in English than has generally been acknowledged.
