Thanks to Tudor Tarita of ZME Science for the Headline.
There you go a Medieval Best Seller the ” Emendatio vitae-The Emending of Life by Richard Rolle a Yorkshire Hermit and mystic.
Emend means fix, it’s used in publishing and editing and is not as all pervasive as ammend. So fixing life. An interesting concept.
Richard Rolle himself in his day ,the 14th Century was more famous for his writing than even Chaucer, so the fact that his complete manuscript was found by a researcher working in a Shrewsbury School shows just how a good work can be mislaid.
The manuscript is original and more complete than any other that has been found.
Somehow , I don’t think it will make the WH Smith Best Sellers List in 2026.
Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏
