Bede, Books 1-5 Review and Study Guide

WITTEL, Caspar Andriaans van. St Peter's in Rome.
1711. Oil on canvas. Private collection.
Prof. Schlect notes, "Bede knew that kingdoms come and go, so he focused his attention on an institution that is truly lasting: the church. While he mentions many kings, his real heroes are churchmen. When he does describe kings, he is interested not so much in their political maneuvers as he is in how they affect the church. He also mentions war from time to time, but gives far more attention to the church’s warfare against heresy, schism, false worship and apostasy."
