EDITORS COMMENTS
Hereward & Lightfoot: A Tale of Medieval Pursuit In this evocative image from the annals of medieval history, we find ourselves witness to an extraordinary scene of speed and agility, as the aptly named Martin Lightfoot outpaces Hereward the Wake on horseback. The year is circa 1070, and the two figures, both renowned for their prowess and cunning, are locked in a thrilling race. Hereward, a legendary English rebel, had long been a thorn in the side of the Norman invaders, leading a resistance against their occupation of his homeland. A skilled horseman and warrior, he had eluded capture for years, earning him the moniker 'Hereward the Wake' - 'Wake' meaning 'awake' or 'vigilant.' Enter Martin Lightfoot, a local athlete known for his remarkable speed and endurance. With a name that seemed to foretell his destiny, Lightfoot had long been a source of fascination and admiration in his community. When news of the great Hereward reached him, the challenge was too great to resist. And so, the stage was set for an epic chase. Hereward, mounted on his steed, thundered through the countryside, leaving a trail of dust in his wake. But the swift Lightfoot, his feet barely touching the ground as he ran alongside his horse, was gaining ground. With each stride, he closed the gap, his determination unwavering. The image captures the moment of triumph, as Lightfoot, with a triumphant grin, overtakes Hereward, leaving the rebel leader in shock. The scene is a testament to the power of human endurance and the unpredictability of fate. This image, brought to us by Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of medieval history, filled with tales of courage, cunning, and the indomitable human spirit.
