Saint Bede, The Father of English History

Entitled: "The history of the Church of Englande. Compiled by Venerable Bede, Englishman." Bede (672/673 - May 26, 735) was an English monk, author and scholar. He wrote scientific, historical and theological works, reflecting the range of his writings from music and metrics to exegetical Scripture commentaries. His scriptural commentaries employed the allegorical method of interpretation and his history includes accounts of miracles, which to modern historians has seemed at odds with his critical approach to the materials in his history. His most famous work, Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum (The Ecclesiastical History of the English People) gained him the title "The Father of English History". Although Bede is mainly studied as a historian now, in his time his works on grammar, chronology, and biblical studies were as important as his historical and hagiographical works. He was a skilled linguist and translator, and his work made the Latin and Greek writings of the early Church Fathers much more accessible to his fellow Anglo-Saxons, contributing significantly to English Christianity. In 1899, Bede was made a Doctor of the Church by Pope Leo XIII; he is the only native of Great Britain to achieve this designation. He is the patron saint of English writers and historians.

Título:
Saint Bede, The Father of English History
Descripción:
Traducción automática: Titulado: "La historia de la Iglesia de Inglaterra. Compilado por el Venerable Beda, inglés". Beda (672/673 - 26 de mayo de 735) fue un monje, autor y erudito inglés. Escribió obras científicas, históricas y teológicas, que reflejan la gama de sus escritos, desde música y métrica hasta comentarios exegéticos de las Escrituras. Sus comentarios de las Escrituras emplearon el método alegórico de interpretación y su historia incluye relatos de milagros, lo que a los historiadores modernos les ha parecido contrario a su enfoque crítico de los materiales de su historia. Su obra más famosa, Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum (La historia eclesiástica del pueblo inglés) le valió el título de "El padre de la historia inglesa". Aunque ahora Beda se estudia principalmente como historiador, en su época sus obras sobre gramática, cronología y estudios bíblicos eran tan importantes como sus obras históricas y hagiográficas. Era un hábil lingüista y traductor, y su trabajo hizo que los escritos latinos y griegos de los primeros Padres de la Iglesia fueran mucho más accesibles para sus compañeros anglosajones, contribuyendo significativamente al cristianismo inglés. En 1899, Beda fue nombrado Doctor de la Iglesia por el Papa León XIII; es el único nativo de Gran Bretaña que logra esta designación. Es el santo patrón de los escritores e historiadores ingleses.
