{"product_id":"ecclesiastical-history-of-the-english-people-2","title":"Ecclesiastical History of the English People","description":"Written in AD 731, Bede's work opens with a background sketch of Roman Britain's geography and history. It goes on to tell of the kings and bishops, monks and nuns who helped to develop Anglo-Saxon government and religion during the crucial formative years of the English people. Leo Sherley-Price's translation brings us an accurate and readable version, in modern English, of a unique historical document. This edition now includes Bede's Letter to Egbert concerning pastoral care in early Anglo-Saxon England, at the heart of which lay Bede's denunciation of the false monasteries; and The Death of Bede, an admirable eye-witness account by Cuthbert, monk and later Abbot of Jarrow, both translated by D. H. Farmer.","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54220827361624,"sku":"9780140445657","price":18.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780140445657.jpg?v=1764315042","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/ecclesiastical-history-of-the-english-people-2","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
