1240 Abingdon Archbishop Canterbury Crusade Edmund Preached Rich Scholar


EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: St. Edmund of Abingdon, English Scholar and Archbishop of Canterbury, Preaching the Sixth Crusade (1233-1240) St. Edmund of Abingdon, an esteemed English scholar and theologian, is depicted in this evocative image as he passionately delivers a sermon, calling for the participation of the faithful in the Sixth Crusade. Born around 1174 in Abingdon, Berkshire, England, Edmund was educated at Oxford University, where he gained a reputation as a brilliant scholar and a man of deep spiritual conviction. In 1233, Edmund was appointed Archbishop of Canterbury, a position he held until his death in 1240. During his tenure, he dedicated himself to the spiritual and temporal welfare of his flock, as well as to the promotion of learning and scholarship. This commitment to education is evident in the image, where he is shown engrossed in the study of sacred texts, his eyes focused intently on the page before him. However, St. Edmund's most enduring legacy is his role in the Sixth Crusade. In 1239, he traveled to France to preach the crusade and recruit soldiers for the Holy Land. His eloquent speeches and unwavering faith inspired many to join the cause, including King Louis IX of France, who led the crusade. The image captures the moment of inspiration, as St. Edmund's impassioned words ignite the hearts and minds of those gathered before him. This evocative print, produced in the late 19th or early 20th century, offers a glimpse into the life of a remarkable man who dedicated his life to the pursuit of knowledge, the service of the Church, and the advancement of the Christian cause. St. Edmund of Abingdon remains an enduring symbol of English scholarship, spiritual fervor, and devotion.
