The Prosopography of Anglo-Saxon England

The Prosopography of Anglo-Saxon England is a relational database accessible on line and free of charge at www. pase.ac.uk. It contains information on all the people who are known to have lived in or have been in contact with England between 597 and 1042. It is based on information contained in all the surviving written sources dealing with the same period. F. Tinti was the only member of the PASE team who worked full time for the Project, which she joined as Postdoctoral Research Officer in July 2000. Together with David Pelteret she collaborated with the technical officers on the construction of the data-collection database. She examined and entered prosopographical data from several Anglo-Latin works, including Bede’s Ecclesiastical History, the Lives of Cuthbert, the Lives and correspondence of the English missionaries to the Continent and the tenth-century saints’ Lives. She analysed the papal correspondence with England and a number of other continental sources, including the Liber Pontificalis. Throughout the duration of the Project she maintained the guidelines for the PASE data entry. She also trained a number of graduate students at Cambridge and London to take part in the data collection and the editing process. In the final stages she edited and supervised the editing of several aspects of the database, including the factoids called Education, Personal Information and Event. She also collaborated with the graphic designer for the construction of the PASE website.
