PASTORAL CARE IN
LATE ANGLO-SAXON ENGLAND
The tenth and eleventh centuries saw a number of very significant develop-
ments in the history of the English Church, perhaps the most significant being
the proliferation of local churches, which were to be the basis of the modern
parochial system. Using evidence from homilies, canon law, saints’ lives,
and liturgical and penitential sources, the articles collected in this volume
focus on the ways in which such developments were reflected in pastoral
care, considering what it consisted of at this time, how it was provided and by
whom. Starting with an investigation of the secular clergy, their recruitment
and patronage, the papers move on to examine a variety of aspects of late
Anglo-Saxon pastoral care, including church due payments, preaching,
baptism, penance, confession, visitation of the sick and archaeological
evidence of burial practice. Special attention is paid to the few surviving
manuscripts which are likely to have been used in the field and the evidence
they provide for the context, the actions and the verbal exchanges which
characterised pastoral provisions.

‘Anglo-Saxon Studies’ aims to provide a forum for the best scholarship
on the Anglo-Saxon peoples in the period from the end of Roman Britain
to the Norman Conquest, including comparative studies involving adja-
cent populations and periods; both new research and major
re-assessments of central topics are welcomed.
Originally founded by Professor David Dumville as ‘Studies in
Anglo-Saxon History’, the series has now broadened in scope under new
editorship to take in any one of the principal disciplines of archaeology,
art history, history, language and literature, and inter- or multi-
disciplinary studies are encouraged.
