	Ordericus Vitalis
		His history was intended at first to be a chronicle of his abbey but it developed into a general "Historia Ecclesiastica" in 13 books.
		In spite, therefore, of its clumsy arrangements and chronological errors the "Historia Ecclesiastica" gives a very vivid picture of the times and is of great historical value.
		The best text of the "Historia Ecclesiastica" is that edited by Le Prévost for the "Société de l'histoire de France" (5 vols., 1838-55).

	Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum (in English: Ecclesiastical History of the English People) is a work in Latin by the Venerable Bede on the history of the Church in England, and of England generally; its main focus is on the conflict between Roman and Celtic Christianity.
		The Historia, like other historical writing from this period cannot be expected to have the same degree of objectivity as modern historical writings.

	Life of King Arthur
		Though there were earlier sources of Arthur in Welsh legends, it was not until Geoffrey wrote Historia regum Britanniae ("History of Kings of Britain", in Latin, 1137), that we have the continuous account of Arthur.
		Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum ("Ecclesiastical History of the English People") was written by St Bede the Venerable, in 732.
		Later legends, such as Boron's trilogy and the Vulgate Cycle, say that it was Merlin who thought of the design and created the Round Table, which soon became associated with the quest of the Holy Grail.

		Plummer in his edition of Bede's Historia (1896) depended on this interpolated version and thus his source attributions are inaccurate in places.
		After the Norman Conquest, in 1069, a monk of Auxerre, Benedict, brought a finger of Germanus with him to Selby (Yorkshire), where he was granted a charter (1070) by William I to found a monastery (Knowles and Hadcock 1972 p 76).
		The earliest full text of the Historia Brittonum, London, BL Harley 3859 (HG 439), was copied in Wales in the late eleventh century, but probably derived from a tenth-century exemplar (Chadwick and Chadwick 1954 p 24); a fragmented copy in Chartres is dated ca.

		Introduction to "The Conversion of Edwin" and "The Poet Cædmon" from Bede's Historia Ecclesiastica
		The Historia is an account of English history from the Anglo-Saxon conquest of the island to Bede's own time, focussing primarily on the conversion of the Anglo-Saxons and the growth of the church in England (as the title suggests).
		The Old English version of the Historia dates from the Alfredian period and is one of the works that resulted from Ælfred's program of translation announced in his preface to Gregory's Cura pastoralis.

		The judge then, astonished at the novelty of so many heavenly miracles, ordered that the persecution should cease immediately, beginning thus to honour the saints for their patience and constancy, in suffering that death by the terrors of which he had expected to have withdrawn them from their adherence to the Christian faith.
		Nor was it long before he gave his preachers a settled residence in his metropolis of Canterbury, with such possessions of different kinds as were necessary for their subsistence.

		THE VENERABLE BEDE, monk of the twin monasteries of Wearmouth and Jarrow and doctor of the Catholic Church, was known throughout the Middle Ages primarily for his Scriptural commentary.
		Bede assessed this measure as a vera lex historiae, a true law of history, by which facts are ultimately at the service of (and sometimes changed by) spiritual truth.
		Though we may mine the HE for a factual history of early Britain, its author was foremost a priest, and its chief function was the demonstration of a vera lex historiae.

	Matthew, the Gospel of - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia
		The testimony of Papias to Matthew as the author of the First Gospel is confirmed by Irenaeus (iii.3, 1) and by Origen (in Eusebius, Historia Ecclesiastica, V, 10), and may be accepted as representing a uniform 2nd-century tradition.
		Clement of Alexandria is responsible for the statement that the presbyters who succeeded each other from the beginning declared that "the gospels containing the genealogies (Matthew and Luke) were written first" (Eusebius, Historia Ecclesiastica, VI, 14).
		This is, of course, fatal to the current theory of dependence on Mark, and is in consequence rejected.

	Literature, Sub-apostolic, 2 (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia) :: Bible Tools
		Papias is called by his younger contemporary Irenaeus (v.33) a "disciple of John and friend of Polycarp." Eusebius writes (Historia Ecclesiastica, III, 36) that he was episkopos of Hierapolis in Phrygia.
		In favor of the first view is, (1) Eusebius' own opinion (in the place cited); (2) the alleged unlikelihood of the same John being twice mentioned in one sentence; (3) a statement by Eusebius (Historia Ecclesiastica, III, 39) that in his day two monuments (mnemata) of "John" existed at Ephesus.
		Celsum, i.63), thus suggesting canonical position; Eusebius (Historia Ecclesiastica, III, 25) testifies to the widespread ascription of it to this Barnabas, although he himself regards it as "spurious." Codex Sinaiticus places it immediately after the New Testament, as being read in churches, and thus suggests its composition by a companion at least of apostles.

	English historians in the Middle Ages - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For example Henry of Huntingdon's History of the English is only one fourth original, relying in many places on Bede's Historia Ecclesiastica.
		On the other hand his work History of the Kings of Britain (Historia Regum Britannia) was considered almost entirely fiction and was not considered authentic history by some other contemporary historians.
		William of Newburgh devotes an extended section of the preface of Historia to discredit Geoffrey, saying at one point "only a person ignorant of ancient history would have any doubt about how shamelessly and impudently he lies in almost everything".

	Discussion: 128. Betylium - (Shaykh Zuwayd ?)
		Hilarion was known in Bethelea because he had been teacher of the noblemen Fuscus, Malachion and Crispius who lived in a monastery they built there (thus Sozomen, Historia Ecclesiastica VI, 32).
		The same Sozomen (Historia Ecclesiastica V, 15) informs us that his grandfather in Bethelea had converted from paganism to Christianity with the family of one Alaphion after a miracle worked by St. Hilarion.
		The historian calls Bethelea "a village of Gaza." Sozomen (Historia Ecclesiastica VII, 28) also tells of an ascetic called Aias of Maiuma of Gaza, who became bishop of Bitoulion, a place which is believed by some scholars to be identical to Bethelea itself.

		He is well known as an author and scholar, whose best-known work is Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum (The Ecclesiastical History of the English People), which gained him the title The Father of English History.
		Bede made a new calculation of the age of the Earth and began the practice of dividing the Christian era into B.C. and A.D. Interestingly, Bede wrote that the Earth was round "like a playground ball," contrasting that with being "round like a shield."
		The first twenty-one chapters, treating of the period before the mission of St. Augustine of Canterbury, are compiled from earlier writers such as Orosius, Gildas, Prosper of Aquitaine, the letters of Pope St. Gregory the Great (known as St. Gregory the Dialogist in the Byzantine East), and others, with the insertion of legends and traditions.

	Reading Cædmon's Hymn with Someone Else's Glosses
		It continued to appear, nonetheless, as a marginal text from the eleventh to the fifteenth century in Latin manuscripts of Bede.
		Nowadays scholars are generally convinced that we have inherited by this process authentic witnesses of Cædmon’s debut as a poet; in fact, they print the “Hymn,” in both scholarly editions and general anthologies, as the central text, with Bede’s Historia Ecclesiastica relegated to the margins.
		The remaining five, belonging to the eorðan bearnum or “sons of the earth” group, are the tenth- and eleventh-century West Saxon versions in the Old English translation of the Ecclesiastical History.

		The story of Cædmon was first recounted in Bede's Latin text Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Anglorum (book IV, chapter xxiv), later transcribed into Old English.Cædmon's Hymn itself is recorded in Old English in seventeen different manuscripts, the earliest being the Moore MS (ca.
		Of course, the historicity of Cædmon has been questioned, though there is no particular reason to doubt the the basic account, even if one does not accept the particulars of Bede's telling.
		Kiernan (1990) makes the important observation that most modern readers encounter Cædmon's Hymn in modern texts (e.g., in the Anglo-Saxon Poetic Records series, or in classroom volumes like Norton's) in which the poem is made central (and is often stripped of Bede's contextualising account of Cædmon); whereas in the early Latin mss.
