When the Vercelli Book is examined within the horizon of contemporary women's studies and feminist theory, it can be described as a manuscript intended for a specifically female reader to be read as part of her private religious practice. This essay places Vercelli MS 17 in the context of literate and learned women in Anglo-Saxon England, focusing on the content of the textual selections, the specific address to a female reader in homily seven, and the erasure of a woman's name on folio 41 verso.
