Edmund of East Anglia: Permissions


The Editor acknowledges with thanks the cooperation and support of the following institutions and individuals who gave permissions to reprint materials online, as indicated, or who otherwise contributed original materials to Stage One of the Edmund Project:

 

Dr. Ron Thomson, Director of Publications, Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies, and Prof. Michael Winterbottom, Worcester College, Oxford, for permission to reprint Prof. Winterbottom’s edition “Abbo: Life of St. Edmund” in his Three Lives of English Saints (Toronto: Pontifical Institute of Medieval Studies, 1972), pp. 65-94.

Dr. Ian Short, President and Secretary of the Anglo-Norman Text Society, for permission to reprint Dr. Judith Grant’s edition La Passeun de Seint Edmund, ANTS 36 (for 1978), and to Dr. Grant.

The Very Reverend Dr. Michael Higgins, Dean of Ely Cathedral, for permission to take photographs inside the Cathedral in July, 2002, and to mount them on the website; at this stage the Edmund website uses only the photograph from St. Edmund’s Chapel showing the viking assault on Edmund.

Mr. David Way, Head of Publications, The British Library, for permission to use images from Cotton Julius E.vii, fols. 203r—207r, and to Mr. David French for capturing these images.

Dr. Elizabeth Dachowski for her biography of Abbo of Fleury.

Dr. Grant for giving us her original translation of the Anglo-Norman Edmund.

In public domain are the following:

W.W. Skeat, ed. and tr., Ælfric’s Lives of Saints, EETS OS 76, 82, 94, 114 (1881-1900)
(repr. in two volumes, 1966). The OE Life of Edmund appears in vol. 2, pp. 314—35 with translation en face.

Lord Francis Hervey, Corolla Sancti Eadmundi: The Garland of Saint Eadmund King and Martyr (New York, E. P. Dutton and Company, 1907), pp. 7—59. This translation is meant as a guide to the Latin, for (quite obviously) it is not a translation of the Winterbottom edition.

Prof. Simon D. Keynes, executor of the estate of Dorothy Whitelock, and Brian Seward, Hon. General Secretary, Suffolk Institute of Archaeology and History for permission to reprint Dorothy Whitelock’s “Fact and Fiction in the Legend of St. Edmund,” Proceedings of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology 31 (for 1969): 217-33.
