Prosopography of Anglo-Saxon England

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Prosopography of Anglo-Saxon England (PASE) is an on-line database presenting details (called factoids) of the lives of every recorded individual who lived in, or was closely connected with, Anglo-Saxon England from 597 to 1042. It provides specific citations to (and often quotations from) each primary source describing those factoids. A second phase of the project, PASE II, is in progress which will record information for the period 1042 to c.1100, and also data from sources written after that date which record Anglo-Saxons across the whole period 597-1100.

PASE is based at King's College London in the Department of History and the Centre for Computing in the Humanities, and at the Department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic of the University of Cambridge.
