Abstract

To date, Bede‘s letter to Albinus — which he wrote to accompany copies of his Historia ecclesiastica and De templo that he was sending to his friend and mentor in Canterbury — has been known only from Jean Mabillon‘s 1675 edition of a now lost manuscript. This article presents a new edition and translation of the letter, based on two recently discovered medieval manuscripts, together with a fresh examination of its transmission and authenticity.
