Regularis Concordia (Winchester)

Regularis Concordia (Winchester)

The Regularis Concordia, or Monastic Agreement, was a document produced at Winchester in about 970.

The document was compiled by Æthelwold, who was aided by monks from Fleury and Ghent. A synodal council was summoned to construct a common rule of life to be observed by all monasteries. The resulting compilation of various Western European monastic practices did not contain much that was unique to English customs. It did specify a procedure for the election of bishops that differed from Continental practice, and which led to a predominantly monastic episcopacy.cite book |last= Blair|first= Peter Hunter|title= An Introduction to Anglo-Saxon England|pages=178|year= 1960|publisher= Cambridge University Press]
