Abstract(s)
Written before 720, Vita Sancti Wilfridi by Eddius Stephanus is a significant work of early Anglo-Latin hagiography. The article attempts to summarize the results of thorough analysis of the selected part of the Vita (chapters 1–32) from the point of view of its morphology and syntax. Typical features are illustrated on excerpts from the Vita and compared with those of the Frankish hagiography Vita vel passio Haimhrammi episcopi et martyris Ratisbonensis by Arbeo of Freising. The analysis and comparison of selected features of morphology and syntax aim to prove the relatively high level of Medieval Latin in the 8th-century Britain.
