The charters from the archive of St Augustine's Abbey, many very early indeed, provide crucial evidence about the history of the Anglo-Saxon Church in Kent and the development of the documentary in process. A high proportion of the 39 pre-Conquest charters which are edited in this volume, together with 14 from another early foundation at Minster-in-Thanet, date from the 7th and 8th centuries. The editor's introduction sets the documents in their historical and diplomatic contexts, and analyzes the extent and nature of the contamination by later Medieval scholars of the abbey. A detailed commentary is also provided on each text and important topics such as lost charters, the sequence of abbots and Kentish kings are discussed in separate appendices. This volume is the largest and most important collection to be published in the "Anglo-Saxon Charters" series.
