Index. Very rare early and apparently first complete edition of the seminal works by the "Father of English History" the venrable Bede. Bede’s most famous work his "An Ecclesiastical History of the English People" Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Anglorum begins with the invasion of the British Isles by Roman forces and is considered one of the most important historical records documenting Roman rule Anglo-Saxon settlement and the evolution of the Church on the island. With its focus on Anglo-Saxon history the work is considered a key foundational text in the forming of a national English identity. The "Ecclesiastical History" contains stories that serve as the only source documenting the conversion to Christianity of the Anglo-Saxon tribes. It tells the story of Britons from Julius Caesar’s invasion to the time of Bede himself . He tells the story of battles conversions and miracles performed by monks and bishops and details Britain’s early history from the Roman invasion. He furthermore describes the organization and establishment of Christianity in the English church and covers the personal history of Holy Ethelwald and miracles of growth within the English church such as the development of the bishopric. "Bede’s works fall into three groups: grammatical and “scientific” scriptural commentary and historical and biographical. His earliest works included treatises on spelling hymns figures of speech verse and epigrams. His first treatise on chronology De temporibus “On Times” with a brief chronicle attached was written in 703. In 725 he completed a greatly amplified version De temporum ratione “On the Reckoning of Time” with a much longer chronicle. Both these books were mainly concerned with the reckoning of Easter. His earliest biblical commentary was probably that on the Revelation to John 703–709; in this and many similar works his aim was to transmit and explain relevant passages from the Fathers of the Church. Although his interpretations were mainly allegorical treating much of the biblical text as symbolic of deeper meanings he used some critical judgment and attempted to rationalize discrepancies. Among his most notable are his verse 705–716 and prose before 721 lives of St. Cuthbert bishop of Lindisfarne. These works are uncritical and abound with accounts of miracles; a more exclusively historical work is Historia abbatum c. 725; “Lives of the Abbots”. In 731/732 Bede completed his Historia ecclesiastica. Divided into five books it recorded events in Britain from the raids by Julius Caesar 55–54 BCE to the arrival in Kent 597 CE of St. Augustine of Canterbury. For his sources he claimed the authority of ancient letters the “traditions of our forefathers” and his own knowledge of contemporary events. Bede’s Historia ecclesiastica leaves gaps tantalizing to secular historians. Although overloaded with the miraculous it is the work of a scholar anxious to assess the accuracy of his sources and to record only what he regarded as trustworthy evidence. It remains an indispensable source for some of the facts and much of the feel of early Anglo-Saxon history." Encycl. Britt. Only three editions of Bede's Opera Omnia are known before Dr. Giles' edition from 1843 - 44. The first was printed in 1563 and the third in 1688. The 1688-edition constitutes the second edition of the present 1612-edition which is "According to Dr. Henry the only complete edition" Lowndes I:143. These three editions are also the only ones known to have been printed in folio though Lowndes mentions the 1688-edition as 4to. The 1612-edition is the rarest. Some of the works contained in this edition are said not to be Bede's own as some of the many scientific richly illustrated works on geography the heavens the universe music etc. bear small resemblance to his other works.
