Hild of Whitby and the Ministry of Women in the Anglo-Saxon World

This book sets the life of Hild of Whitby in the context of early monasticism, with a special focus on Anglo-Saxon England. It uncovers the sacramental, liturgical, and governing responsibilities of the abbess before her leadership roles were systematically withdrawn and then written out of history.
