| 释义 |
Simon, abbot of St Albans (1167–1188) asked William to write The Passion of St Alban (Passio sancti Albani), according to the book's preface.[2] The book mentions that the body of Amphibalus had yet to be found: this occurred in 1178, suggesting that the work was written before this date.[3] William drew on the stories of Alban as told by Bede and Geoffrey of Monmouth, the latter of whom he acknowledges in the preface. He frames the work as a translation of an Old English book, similar to Geoffrey's claim that his De gestis Britonum was a translation of an ancient work.[4] Ralph of Dunstable later made a versification of William's Passion; the Vie de seint Auban by Matthew Paris is another adaptation of the work.[5]References1. ^{{Cite journal| doi = 10.1484/J.MS.2.306264| issn = 0076-5872| volume = 42| pages = 407–430| last = McLeod| first = W.| title = Alban and Amphibal: Some extant lives and a lost life| journal = Mediaeval Studies| date = 1980}} {{authority control}}{{UK-historian-stub}}2. ^{{Cite book| publisher = ACMRS| isbn = 978-0-86698-390-7| pages = 133–165| editors = Jocelyn Wogan-Browne, Thelma S.
