Bede’s Ecclesiastical History of England is a historical account of the early Christian church in England, written by the Northumbrian monk and scholar, Bede, in the eighth century. The book covers the period from the arrival of the Romans in Britain to the early eighth century, and provides a detailed account of the spread of Christianity in England during this time. The book is divided into five books, each covering a different period of English history. Book one covers the arrival of the Romans in Britain and the early Christian church in Britain. Book two covers the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons and the conversion of the English to Christianity. Book three covers the rise of the Northumbrian church and the conversion of the Picts and Scots. Book four covers the rise of the Mercian church and the conversion of the Saxons. Book five covers the reign of King Alfred and the spread of Christianity in England.Throughout the book, Bede provides detailed descriptions of important events and figures in English church history, including the lives of St. Augustine, St. Aidan, and St. Cuthbert. He also includes accounts of important political events, such as the rise of the Northumbrian and Mercian kingdoms.Bede’s Ecclesiastical History of England is an important historical document, as it provides one of the earliest and most detailed accounts of the early Christian church in England. It has been widely studied and translated into many languages, and continues to be an important source for scholars of English history and religion.In the year of our Lord 377, Gratian, the fortieth from Augustus, held the empire for six years after the death of Valens; though he had long before reigned with his uncle Valens, and his brother Valentinian. Finding the condition of the commonwealth much impaired, and almost gone to ruin, and impelled by the necessity of restoring it, he invested the Spaniard, Theodosius, with the purple at Sirmium.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
