ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Research for this translation was done in the course of a study of sexuality in the early Middle Ages which wasundertaken with aid from the Social Sciencesand Humanities Research Council and Mount Saint Vincent University.

In particular I must acknowledge the helpful comments of the readers for the Canadian Federation for the Humanities and Dr. A.

This book has been published with the help of a grant from the Canadian Federation for the Humanities, using funds provided by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
