Andreas and the Fates of the Apostles is a book that features two Anglo-Saxon narrative poems, both translated and edited by George Philip Krapp. The first poem, Andreas, tells the story of Saint Andrew and his mission to save Saint Matthew from a group of cannibals. The second poem, The Fates of the Apostles, describes the fates of the twelve apostles, including their journeys and eventual martyrdoms. Both poems offer insight into Anglo-Saxon culture and religion, as well as showcasing the unique literary style of the time period. The book includes an introduction by Krapp that provides historical context and analysis of the poems, as well as notes and glossaries to aid in understanding the Old English language. Overall, Andreas and the Fates of the Apostles is a valuable resource for scholars and enthusiasts of Anglo-Saxon literature and history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
