The fiftieth volume of Anglo-Saxon England ranges from the seventh century - with studies of Archbishop Theodore's computus, the creation of English law-writing, and Aldhelm's Irish influences - into modernity, with new accounts of John Leland's De uiris illustribus and of iron as a metaphor for Old English verse in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Several new discoveries also feature, including fragments of an Old English-glossed psalter, three Agnus Dei pennies, a proposed 'solution' to the Wife's Lament, and the likely site of the urbs Giudi described by Bede. Readers will encounter Eadgifu, a woman who governed Kent; the names of English clerics; the waning land of the kingdom of the Hwicce; the many uses and meanings of bells; and runes in the Vineyard of the Lord. Also included is an account of the International Society for the Study of Early Medieval England's 2021 virtual conference, and an essay surveying current scholarship on Archbishop Wulfstan II of York, commissioned to mark the millennium of his death. An index of the contents of volumes 1–50 marks the reaching of a different milestone. An abstract precedes each article.
