About this ebook
Æthelwold of Winchester is among the most famous Anglo-Saxon saints. During his lifetime he was the Bishop of Winchester and stood as one of the leaders of the tenth-century monastic reform movement with the English church, along with his peers, St. Dunstan and St. Oswald of Worcester. He remains as one of the major figure of the Anglo-Catholic Church and Church of England. St. Aethelwold also stands as one of the primary catalyst for the revival of the English intellectual tradition, which had been in a state of perennial disrepair during the chaos of the Viking era, but was fully restored under royal patronage through the assistance of St. Aethelwold.
