Tento anglický učenec sa preslávil najmä svojimi stručnými životopismi, ktoré predstavujú fascinujúci pohľad do života a diela jeho súčasníkov. Bol priekopníkom v archeológii aj folkloristike, systematicky zaznamenával historické pamiatky a ľudové zvyky, čím prispel k uchovaniu cenných poznatkov. Jeho záujem o anglické miestne názvy a nedokončené historické projekty dokladajú jeho široké bádanie. Priatelil sa s poprednými vedcami svojej doby a jeho dielo odráža polyhistorický záujem o svet.
