"This volume is a collection of 16 essays, old and new, relating history and exegesis
in the writings of Bede and Adomnán, and in the lives of Thomas Becket. The first
part consists of seven studies of Bede's writings, notably his biblical commentaries
and his Ecclesiastical History. Two of the essays are published here for the first
time. The five studies in the second part, devoted to Adomnán, discuss his life of
Saint Columba (the Vita Columbae) and his guide to the Holy Places (De locis sanctis).
One essay ('The Bible as Map'), published posthumously, compares his presentation
of a major theme, the earthly and heavenly Jerusalem, with the approach adopted by
Bede. The third section consists of two essays on the lives of Thomas Becket that
were composed shortly after his death. They examine, in the context of patristic exegesis,
the biblical images invoked in the texts in order to show how the saint's biographers
understood the complex relationship between hagiography and history. With the exception
of the Jarrow Lecture on Bede and the essays on Becket, the studies in both parts
were published originally in edited books, some of them now hard to come by"
