This Section provides examples of saints’ lives from around the millennium, in the works of Ælfric and Wulfstan of Winchester on the life of Æthelwold, in the work of the author known as ‘B.’ on the life of St. Dunstan (an excerpt describing a miracle involving Dunstan’s harp in the house of a woman where Dunstan was designing an embroidery) with excerpts from the biographies of DUnstan written by post-Conquest writers, namely Osbern of Canterbury, Eadmer and William of Malmesbury, for the sake of comparison. Finally an excerpt is given from Byrhtferth’s life of bishop Oswald, describing his role at the coronation in Bath of king Edgar in 973.
