Reviews
'A compelling and compassionate account of agency and identity in late Anglo-Saxon England. Katherine O'Brien O'Keeffe's deep learning, theoretical acumen, and elegant prose are evident at every turn as she illuminates the tantalizing paradox of how obedience and service to others might prove the ultimate path to human freedom. Stealing Obedienceis groundbreaking scholarship and will be the definitive work on this subject for the foreseeable future.'--Stacy S. Klein, Rutgers University, 'Solid cultural and historical grounding, artfully framed by appropriate theoretical models, characterize this study… Highly recommended', 'Solid cultural and historical grounding, artfully framed by appropriate theoretical models, characterize this study... Highly recommended'--M.B. Busbee, Choice Magazine; vol 50:04:2012 'Stealing Obedienceis a fresh look at a body of narrative sources which have only rarely been theorized and troubled so effectively.' --Justin Haar, Comitatus vol 44: September 2013 'A pleasure to read...Speaks to a range of disciplinary interests, and deserves attention as an authoritative contribution to debates about identity and selfhood in Middle Ages.' --Catherine A.M. Clarke, Modern Language Review vol 108:04:2013 'Imaginative and sophisticated monograph... Katherine O'Brien O'Keeffe must be warmly congratulated on her fine accomplishment, which will be useful to scholars interested in English monastic life and obedience on either side of the Norman Conquest.' --Francesca Tinti, Speculum vol 90:01:2015, 'Stealing Obedience is a fresh look at a body of narrative sources which have only rarely been theorized and troubled so effectively.', 'Solid cultural and historical grounding, artfully framed by appropriate theoretical models, characterize this study... Highly recommended'

Synopsis
Narratives of monastic life in Anglo-Saxon England depict individuals as responsible agents in the assumption and performance of religious identities. To modern eyes, however, many of the 'choices' they make would actually appear to be compulsory. Stealing Obedienceexplores how a Christian notion of agent action - where freedom incurs responsibility - was a component of identity in the last hundred years of Anglo-Saxon England, and investigates where agency (in the modern sense) might be sought in these narratives. Katherine O'Brien O'Keeffe looks at Benedictine monasticism through the writings of Ælfric, Anselm, Osbern of Canterbury, and Goscelin of Saint-Bertin, as well as liturgy, canon and civil law, chronicle, dialogue, and hagiography, to analyse the practice of obedience in the monastic context. Stealing Obedience brings a highly original approach to the study of Anglo-Saxon narratives of obedience in the adoption of religious identity., Stealing Obedience explores how a Christian notion of agent action - where freedom incurs responsibility - was a component of identity in the last hundred years of Anglo-Saxon England, and investigates where agency (in the modern sense) might be sought in these narratives., Narratives of monastic life in Anglo-Saxon England depict individuals as responsible agents in the assumption and performance of religious identities.
