St Edmund of Abingdon, Archbishop of Canterbury between 1233 and 1240, was a schoolman bishop. His academic career and subsequent public life are of great interest to the historian of the thirteenth century, for he was not only the first Oxford master to be officially canonized by the Church, but he is also the first teacher of the nascent university about whom anything considerable is known. This book offers a comprehensive and intimate portrait of Edmund as a scholar and archbishop and a study of his most famous biographer, Matthew Paris, the monk and historian of St. Albans. It also provides the first English translation of the Life by Matthew Paris, which is an important source for the political history of Henry III, and an account of the canonization process.
