	Aldhelm - LoveToKnow 1911
		Aldhelm was one of his disciples, for he addresses him as the "venerable preceptor of my rude childhood." He must, nevertheless, have been thirty years of age when he began to study with Hadrian.
		When Maildulf died, Aldhelm was appointed in 675, according to a charter of doubtful authenticity cited by William of Malmesbury, by Leutherius, bishop of Dorchester from 671 to 676, to succeed to the direction of the monastery, of which he became the first abbot.
		Aldhelm was the first Englishman, so far as we know, to write in Latin verse, and his letter to Acircius (Aldfrith or Eadfrith, king of Northumbria) is a treatise on Latin prosody for the use of his countrymen.

		Aldhelm's writings, for the light which they throw upon religious thought in England at the close of the seventh century.
		Aldhelm's vocabulary is very extravagant, and his style artificial and involved.

		Elaborate passages of metaphor, too, occur—one about bees, of which Aldhelm is specially fond—and the whole affords as concentrated a sample of the author’s “learned” style as it is possible to find in a small compass.
		It may be added here that, in a letter to Hedda, bishop of Winchester, he describes himself, apparently, as engaged in the study of Roman law, and, certainly, as occupied with metres and with the science of astronomical calculation.
		Additional evidence of the importance of Aldhelm as a literary figure is afforded by the existence of what we may call the Aldhelmian school of English Latinists.

	Britannia Biographies: St. Aldhelm, Bishop of Sherborne
		From being the companion of the monks in their studies, Aldhelm soon became their teacher and his reputation for learning spread so rapidly that the small society gathered around him at Malmesbury was increased by scholars from France and Scotland.
		Aldhelm observed, with pain, that the peasantry, instead of assisting as the monks sung mass, ran about from house to house gossiping and could hardly be persuaded to attend to the exhortations of the preacher.
		Aldhelm watched the occasion and stationed himself, in the character of a minstrel, on the bridge over which the people had to pass.

		Here at St Aldhelm's we have wagon vaults of painted boarding over the aisles, but over the nave the roof structure is exposed; each pair of rafters is joined by collar-beam with arch braces, and ashlaring to the top of the walls, all approximating to the vault shape.
		This instrument would lead the worship at St Aldhelm’s until 1995 by which time the need for major restoration was clear; in addition it had become clear that the instrument was no longer effective in leading the increased congregation in the demands of the revised liturgy.

		Very little is known about the basic details of Aldhelm's life, but there is no doubt that he was one of the most influential men to have come from the Malmesbury area.
		Aldhelm is still considered one of the pre-eminent scholars of his time.
		There were rumours that Pope Sergius was the father, so Aldhelm enquired of the nine-day old infant, who stated in a clear voice that the holy father was pure and undefiled and ever had been.

	Tertullian: M.R.JAMES, Two Ancient English Scholars : St Aldhelm and William of Malmesbury, Glasgow, 1931
		Aldhelm’s works, his real learning and his incredibly florid style, earned for him a reputation outside this country : it is strange to think that in the ninth century poetry of his was read in Spain and that one of the best ancient copies of one of his works belonged to an abbey at Limoges.
		Aldhelm while studying at Canterbury writes a letter to Leutherius, bishop of Winchester, apologizing for not being able to keep Christmas at Malmesbury because he is detained by his studies.
		I now leave the discussion of Aldhelm and his books with the intimation that quotations from some forty Latin authors, pagan and Christian, may be traced in his works, made in such a manner as to imply acquaintance with their writings.

	Saints of May 25
		Aldhelm was distressed because the townspeople were indifferent to the Mass, either by absenting themselves or by gossiping and remaining inattentive when they attended.
		In 705, Aldhelm became the first bishop of Sherbourne, his appointment dating from the time of the division of the old diocese of Wessex into Sherborne and Winchester.
		His English writings, hymns and songs, with their music, have all perished; of his Latin works, the longest are a poem in praise of holy maidens and a treatise on virginity written for the nuns of Barking in Essex.

	The Poetic Art of Aldhelm
		Aldhelm can also be considered the best-read of Anglo-Saxon poets, in both senses of the phrase: he read most and was most read.
		In this first book-length study of Aldhelm's poetic art Andy Orchard traces the sources and models for Aldhelm's idiosyncratic style, as well as the nature and extent of his influence on later Anglo-Latin verse.
		Aldhelm's innovations in Latin verse technique are emphasised, in particular his special debt to the specific techniques of Old English vernacular verse.

		The answer to one of the riddles was Myrmicoleon or Ant-lion--used in the (uncharacteristic for Aldhelm) mythical, symbolistic tradition of the Physiologus.
		It is clear, however, that Aldhelm understood the creature to be an insect, presumably through his reading, for he was well versed in earlier literature (Kevan 1992).

	St Aldhelm's Well, Doulting, Somerset
		Hope's work is largely made up of quotations from previously printed sources, and he seems to have visited very few of the wells he mentions in his book, which is nevertheless the first real national study of holy and healing wells.
		The well is named after St Aldhelm, the great scholar-bishop of Sherborne, who according to legend was not above singing songs and juggling to keep the attention of the congregations which gathered to hear him preach.
		Nevertheless the well has kept a reputation both for sanctity and for healing, and it is its reputation for healing which must have led to its being developed as a bathing-place for pilgrims.
