The edited and translated text in this volume chronicles the first century of the history of the Augustinian priory of Llanthony in Monmouthshire, from its origin around 1100 as an isolated hermitage, through the introduction of the Augustinian Order and the semi-abandonment of the initial site in favor of a more secure location outside Gloucester, to the later twelfth century. The author of the History is a champion of the original community and compares it favorably with the Gloucester house, as well as offering his reflections on the duties of superiors and subordinates in monastic life and describing and assessing the individual priors. The editorial introduction describes the manuscript, sets the History in context, and advances a theory about its authorship.
