Zusammenfassung

Four very different kinds of Anglo-Saxon thinking are clarified in this volume – traditions, learned and oral, about the settlement of the country, study of foreign-language grammar, interest in exotic jewels as reflections of the glory of God, and (surprisingly, no doubt, to some) a mainly rational attitude to medicine.
