EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the intense focus of Wulfstan, Archbishop of York (1002-1023), as he diligently writes with a quill pen, leaving an indelible mark on parchment. Wulfstan was a prominent English prelate and advisor to two successive monarchs, King Aethelred II (978-1016) and King Canute (1016-1035). His influence extended beyond the ecclesiastical sphere, as he played a crucial role in shaping English law and communications between the monarchy and the people. Dating from the 11th century, this photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the written word held immense power. The quill pen, a symbol of literacy and learning, was the primary tool for recording and disseminating information. Wulfstan's dedication to his craft is evident in the determined expression on his face, as he carefully scribes each letter, ensuring the accuracy and integrity of the text. As the Archbishop of York, Wulfstan was responsible for the spiritual wellbeing of the people of the north of England. He was a respected figure, known for his wisdom and piety, and his advice was sought by both kings during times of crisis. This photograph, therefore, not only illustrates the importance of written communication but also highlights the pivotal role of religious leaders in shaping history. In summary, this photograph of Wulfstan Writing, or Wulfstan Strutt as he is also known, is a testament to the power of the written word and the influence of the Church during the early Middle Ages. It provides an intriguing insight into the daily life of an influential historical figure and the tools he used to shape the course of English history.
