- Abstract
The article focuses on the possible dedication of Annals of Winchester, a late twelfth-century manuscript, to Adam of Dryburgh. It examines the historical context, identifying Adam of Dryburgh as "Magistro ade" based on a partially preserved inscription in the text. The article discusses the connections between key figures of the time, such as Robert fitzHenry, Adam of Dryburgh, and explores the role of conversations about books in the monastic community at Witham in the late twelfth century.
