Download or read book The Making of England written by Mark Atherton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-01-30 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the tenth century England began to emerge as a distinct country with an identity that was both part of yet separate from 'Christendom'. The reigns of Athelstan, Edgar and Ethelred witnessed the emergence of many key institutions: the formation of towns on modern street plans; an efficient administration; and a serviceable system of tax. Mark Atherton here shows how the stories, legends, biographies and chronicles of Anglo-Saxon England reflected both this exciting time of innovation as well as the myriad lives, loves and hates of the people who wrote them. He demonstrates, too, that this was a nation coming of age, ahead of its time in its use not of the Book-Latin used elsewhere in Europe, but of a narrative Old English prose devised for law and practical governance of the nation-state, for prayer and preaching, and above all for exploring a rich and daring new literature. This prose was unique, but until now it has been neglected for the poetry. Bringing a volatile age to vivid and muscular life, Atherton argues that it was the vernacular of Alfred the Great, as much as Viking war, that truly forged the nation.

Download or read book Anglo Saxon Literature written by Simeon North and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-07 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anglo-Saxon Literature: An Oration, Delivered Before the Connecticut Alpha of the Phi, Beta, Kappa, at New Haven, August 18th, 1847 History contains, no record of deeper interest, than that, which unfolds the origin and progress of the anglo-saxon race. From beginnings the most oh scure, and under circumstances, often the most adverse to improvement, its course has been steadily onward, to empire and to greatness The triumphs, which have followed in its steps, and by which its progress has been so distinctly marked have been as various as the fields of human enterprise a1e dive1sified. In the arts of wal, and of peace, in the various de partments of manufacturing skill, of agriculture, and commerce; as well as in science, and thepursuit of universal literature, men of the anglo-saxon race have ever shown themselves foremost and pre-emi nent. The position which they now occupy, in the British islands, with their dependencies, and on this continent, is one of commanding influence; and yet their course is Still onward. Their mission is not yet completed and we think it can be deemed nei ther an empty boast, nor a visionary prophecy, to which we give utterance, in expressing our convio tion,4that when the drama of this world's progress shall have been closed, no race of men will be seen to have acted upon its theatre, a more conspicuous part, or to have left more indelible marks of power and influence on the pages of its history.

Download or read book An Annotated Bibliography of Nineteenth century Grammars of English written by Manfred Görlach and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 19th century, education became accessible to much wider circles of society in a great number and variety of schools and the teaching of grammar came to be obligatory from 1870/72 with the advent of general education. Whereas these general trends of the 19th century are well-known to scholars working in different disciplines of social history, and the history of education in particular, it is still true that major sections of the evidence are largely uncollected. This is especially so for school books: there is virtually a gap between the 18th century and the present grammatical tradition. This bibliography lists some 1930 works on English grammar published in the 19th century, mainly in Britain and the US, half of which are accompanied by short descriptions of their physical make-up, content and affiliation.
