order of Augustinian hermits. Most of his See also:life he spent in the See also:house of the order at Lynn, of which he probably became See also:prior; he was certainly provincial of his order in See also:England, which involved visits to other friaries, and he made at least one See also:journey to See also:Rome. He died on the 12th of See also:August 1464.
Capgrave was an indefatigable student, and was reputed one of the most learned men of his See also:age. The bulk of his See also:works are theological: sermons, commentaries and lives of See also:saints. His reputation as a hagiologist rests on his Nova legenda Angliae, or Catalogus of the English saints, but this was no more than a recension of the Sanctilogium which the chronicler John of Tinmouth, a See also:- MONK (O.Eng. munuc; this with the Teutonic forms, e.g. Du. monnik, Ger. Witch, and the Romanic, e.g. Fr. moine, Ital. monacho and Span. monje, are from the Lat. monachus, adaptedfrom Gr. µovaXos, one living alone, a solitary; Own, alone)

Capgrave's See also:historical works are The See also:Chronicle of England (from the Creation to 1417), written in English and unfinished at his See also:death, and the See also:Liber de illustribus Henricis, completed between 1446 and 1453. The latter is a collection of lives of See also:German emperors (918-1198), English See also:kings (1100-1446) and other famous Henries in various parts of the See also:world (1031-1406).
