g. r. evans The letters of an archbishop are a very different matter from the letters of an abbot. It is not merely that they cover a different and wider range of subject matter. It is also that they have an importance as a diocesan or provincial record; and that they may not all be the personal compositions of their "author." For an archbishop needs a secretary, or a series of clerks. In part, Anselm's later letters reflect this difference of purpose.
