The Bible and the Anglo-Saxon People is a book written by William Canton and published in 1914. The book explores the influence of the Bible on the Anglo-Saxon people, particularly during the period of Old English literature. Canton examines the various ways in which biblical stories and themes were incorporated into Anglo-Saxon literature, including the use of biblical language and imagery in poetry and prose. He also discusses the impact of Christianity on Anglo-Saxon society and culture, including the development of monasticism and the establishment of Christian law codes. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and students of English literature, history, and religious studies, as well as anyone interested in the history of Christianity in England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
