She was probably brought up at See also:court, and when she adopted the religious See also:life, she still retained her love of hawking, hunting and fishing, and her See also:passion for See also:- FIELD (a word common to many West German languages, cf.

field See also:sports. The only documentary See also:evidence regarding her, however, is the statement at the end of her See also:treatise on hunting in the Boke of St Albans, " Explicit See also:Dam Julyans Barnes in her boke of huntyng " (edition of 1486), and the name is changed by Wynkyn de Worde to " See also:dame Julyans Bernes." There is no such See also:person to be found in the See also:pedigree of the Berners See also:family, and there is a See also:gap in the records of the priory of Sopwell between 1430 and 1480. Juliana Berners is the supposed author of the See also:work generally known as the Boke of St Albans. The first and rarest edition was printed in 1486 by an unknown schoolmaster at St Albans. It has no See also:title-See also:page. Wynkyn de Worde's edition (fol. 1496), also without a title-page, begins:—" This See also:present boke shewyth the manere of hawkynge and huntynge: and also of diuysynge of Cote armours. It shewyth also a See also:good matere belongynge to horses: wyth other comendable treatyses. And ferdermore of the blasynge of armys: as hereafter it maye appere." This edition was adorned by three woodcuts, and included a " Treatyse of fysshynge wyth an See also:Angle," not contained in the St Albans edition. J. Haslewood, who published a facsimile of that of Wynkyn de Worde (See also:London, 1811, See also:folio), with a See also:biographical and See also:bibliographical See also:notice, examined with the greatest care the author's claims to figure as the earliest woman author in the English See also:language. He assigned to her little else in the Boke except See also:part of the treatise on hawking and the See also:section on hunting. It is expressly stated at the end of the " Blasynge of Armys " that the section was " translatyd and compylyt," and it is likely that the other See also:treatises are See also:translations, probably from the See also:French. An older See also:form of the treatise on fishing was edited in 1883 by Mr T. Satchell from a MS. in See also:possession of Mr A. See also:Denison. This treatise probably See also:dates from about 1450, and formed the See also:foundation of that section in the See also:book of 1496. Only three perfect copies of the first edition are known to exist. A facsimile, entitled The Book of St Albans, with an introduction by See also:- WILLIAM
