The first edition of a translation of an Old French Commentary on the Penitential Psalms, made in the fifteenth century by Dame Eleanor Hull. She is the first woman to have made translations into English whose name is known, and about whom there is any information: she is a significant figure in English literary history, who has remained virtually unknown until now.
