This book, written by Ernst A. Kock, is a scholarly work that focuses on the Rule of St. Benet, a set of guidelines for monastic life written by Benedict of Nursia in the 6th century. Specifically, the book examines three Middle-English versions of the Rule and two contemporary rituals for the ordination of nuns. The Middle-English versions are analyzed in detail, with attention paid to their differences and similarities. The two contemporary rituals are also examined, providing insight into the practices and beliefs of the time. The book is aimed at scholars of medieval literature and history, as well as those interested in the history of monasticism and religious rituals. It is written in English and is a valuable resource for those seeking a deeper understanding of the Rule of St. Benet and its influence on medieval society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
