Book Old English Glosses

Download or read book Old English Glosses written by Arthur Sampson Napier and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old English Glosses: Chiefly Unpublished The glosses are here printed from nineteen of these. From two further mss. Glosses have already been published, viz. The Brussels and Salisbury mss. (cp. P. Xxiii, notes 1 and Both these glossaries are quoted as Cl. As I pointed out in the Academy, May 12, 1894, p. 399, Aldhelm glosses are to be found in the Corpus Glossary', as well as amongst the glosses from ms. Harley 3376 printed in ww. 192-247 in proof of which I give a few instances below. In choosing the examples I have confined myself almost entirely to inflected forms, as these have naturally more weight than uninflected ones. The great majority of instances in the Corpus Glossary are peculiar to that glossary and are not found amongst the Epinal Erfurt Glosses, and this shows that the scribe of the former got them from an independent source; but the asterisked ones, which occur in the ep.-erf. Glossaries, prove that another and independent Aldhelm glossary was one of the sources of the archetype of ep.-erf. And Corpus.

Book Blue in Old English

Download or read book Blue in Old English written by C.P. Biggam and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-06-08 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Blue in Old English represents the first thorough investigation of an area of the colour semantics of Old English, and the methodology developed for this study is believed to be appropriate for researching the colour semantics of any language which survives only in recorded texts. By means of a collection of in-depth word-studies, which suggest new interpretations of many well-known passages, an understanding of how blueness was described in Old English is developed. The approach is interdisciplinary, using evidence from subjects such as botany, manuscript illustration, etymology, early technologies, and others. The conclusion contradicts certain previously held views on Old English colour, and presents a hitherto obscured sociolinguistic picture of differing language use among various groups of Old English speakers.

Book Studies in Early Medieval Latin Glossaries

Download or read book Studies in Early Medieval Latin Glossaries written by Wallace Martin Lindsay and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-10-28 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glossaries are one of the most important sources for our knowledge of early medieval schools, for they provide an accurate records of what texts were studied and how they were understood. But they are also very difficult to access: countless glossaries lie unpublished in manuscript, the relations between them are unknown, and their origins are obscure. The most important contribution to solving these problems was made by Wallace Martin Lindsay (1858-1937), one of the greatest classical scholars ever produced in the British Isles, who in a pioneering series of articles identified the principal glossaries and clarified their relationships; he subsequently oversaw their publication in Glossaria Latina. So comprehensive was Lindsay's work that the subject virtually stood still for half a century; but recent advances in paleography and Insular Latin studies have drawn scholarly attention to glossaries once again. Any future work on glossaries must be based on Lindsay's pioneering articles; to facilitate such work, these articles have been provided with comprehensive indices of the Latin lemmata and sources of the glossaries, together with an account of recent work on medieval glossaries.

Book The Corpus  Epinal  Erfurt and Leyden Glossaries

Download or read book The Corpus Epinal Erfurt and Leyden Glossaries written by W. Lindsay and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-11-05 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE. THIS investigation of the English group of glossaries aims at the standard required in the twentieth century for scientific accuracy. A favourable specimen of what may be called nineteenth century demonstration is Gruber's paper in vol. XX (1907) of the Romanische Forschungen, pp. 393-494: Die Hauptquellen des Corpus-, Épinaler und Erfurter Glossares. Gruber provides much that interests the reader, and his evidence, e.g. for the use of an Amiatinus text for the Bible glosses, will convince anyone who does not take the trouble of verifying each statement. But his method of proving, let us say, a Bible source for a Corpus gloss seems at this date somewhat precarious. The mere occurrence of the word in Dutripon's Concordance of the Vulgate appears to have been deemed sufficient; although the danger of this method stands revealed when the same word turns up later in his list of (let us say) Orosius glosses. Clearly, such demonstration is based not on rock but on sand. Hessels' careful apographs of the Corpus and Leyden Glossaries have made it possible to make this investigation with a hope of success, and one wonders why the problem has not been solved before. There were apparently two obstacles. The presence of batches (corresponding to the sections of Leid.) in the Épinal and Erfurt Glossaries was not detected. And ko one seems to have thought that an English compiler would be likely to borrow some material from already existing Continental glossaries (Abstrusa, Abolita, etc.), while he took the remainder from marginalia in English MSS. of authors (Orosius, the Bible, etc.). Once these two simple facts are seen, the rest is easy. Almost too easy, for now and then one is tempted to forget the virtue 'aliqua nescire.' W. M. LINDSAY.

Book The Corpus Glossary  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Corpus Glossary Classic Reprint written by W. M. Lindsay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-10 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Corpus Glossary The utmost brevity was stipulated for this edition. We provide text and apparatus criticus, but (professedly) nothing more. The reader may seek explanations of difficult words in Goetz' Thesaurus Glossarum and the great Latin Thesaurus; of anglo-saxon puzzles in Sweet's Old English Texts and the index of Anglia, etc.; al though our discovery of the source of each gloss will facilitate the solution or at least the new treatment of many of these problems and send to limbo many magazine-articles. Until the full fruits of this discovery have been reaped it seems premature to include notes on anglo-saxon words (a thing beyond our power) or a scientific anglo-saxon Index. Some competent Anglicist will, we hope, in the near future make a comprehensive survey of the anglo-saxon side of this glossary. And a final treatment of the all-latin items borrowed from Abstrusa and Abolita is impossible until these two glossaries have been edited or at least analysed. The Prolegomena, which could not be brief, had to be excluded. They will be found in an English Philological Society Publication ('the Corpus, Epinal, Erfurt and Leyden Glossaries, ' Oxford, 1921) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Anglo Saxon Glosses and Glossaries

Download or read book Anglo Saxon Glosses and Glossaries written by Patrizia Lendinara and published by Variorum Publishing. This book was released on 1999 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Lendinara here offers a detailed analysis of glosses, their origin, aims and use, within the framework of Anglo-Saxon schools, monasteries and society. Four of the pieces have been specially translated from Italian, and she opens the volume with a major new introduction to the field. The work includes the publication of glossaries, and explores the transmission and relationship of different texts, into the first centuries after the Norman Conquest. Taken together, these articles set out the role and importance of glossaries in the intellectual world of the Anglo-Saxon monastery, the cells where monks were studying, and in the schools.

Book Anglo Saxon England  Volume 29

Download or read book Anglo Saxon England Volume 29 written by Michael Lapidge and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2001-02-08 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The editorial policy of Anglo-Saxon England has been to encourage an interdisciplinary approach to the study of all aspects of Anglo-Saxon culture. This approach is pursued in exemplary fashion by many of the essays in this volume. Fresh light is thrown on the dating and form of Cynewulf's poem The Fates of the Apostles through a comprehensive study of the historical martyrologies of the Carolingian period on which Cynewulf is presumed to have drawn. The literary form of Ælfric's Preface to his translation of Genesis is illustrated through a wide-ranging study of the rhetorical genre of preface-writing in the early Middle Ages (the genre which subsequently was known as the ars dictaminis), and the problems which Ælfric faced and solved in composing a Life of St Æthelthryth are illustrated through detailed comparison of the sources which he utilized. The usual comprehensive bibliography of the previous year's publications in all branches of Anglo-Saxon studies rounds off the book.
