Blickling Homilies

Blickling Homilies

by Various

The Blickling Homilies is a collection of sermons written in Old English, primarily dating from the 9th and 10th centuries. It offers a glimpse into the religious life and thought of Anglo-Saxon England during a period of significant change. The sermons address a range of theological topics, including biblical stories, moral guidance, and the nature of faith. They are characterized by their vivid language, use of legend and folklore, and often reflect a less formalized and structured approach to religious discourse than later works.
