Guthlac, Medieval Hermit

Little is known about St. Guthlac except a standard hagiography. He lived in late seventh-early eighth century England, and is held as a model of saintly eremitism in later English resources. A compact narrative and bibliography on Guthlac and his sister Pega is assembled at Umilta, an Italian Web site in (occasionally broken) English devoted to a handful of English and Italian saints. The design is lacking but the information is unique on the Web. The Guthlac page is: http://www.umilta.net/guthlac.html.
