Download or read book The Old English written by Albert Stanburrough Cook and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old English: Elene, Ph nix, and Physiologus The manuscript in which the Elene is found is No. CXVII of the library of the Cathedral of Vercelli, in Northern Italy, midway between Turin and Milan, and is hence known as the Codex Vercellensis, or Vercelli Book. It was discovered in 1822 by a German jurist, Friedrich Blume, who then and there copied out the poetical pieces; the result of his investigations in this and other Italian libraries was made known in his book Iter Italicum, the first volume of which was published in 1824. The manuscript belongs to the later decades of the tenth century. It contains 135 written leaves, and the average size of the written page is 91/2 by 6 inches, while that of the complete page approximates 121/4 by 8. It comprises twenty-three homilies and six interspersed poems, the arrangement of the latter being as follows: Andreas (fol. 29-52) and Fates of the Apostles (52-54), after the fifth homily; Address of the Soul to the Body (101-103), Falsehood of Men (104-104), Dream of the Rood (104-106), after the eighteenth; and Elene (121-133), after the twenty-second.

Download or read book Old English Literature and the Old Testament written by Michael Fox and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It would be difficult to overestimate the importance of the Bible in the medieval world. For the Anglo-Saxons, literary culture emerged from sustained and intensive biblical study. Further, at least to judge from the Old English texts which survive, the Old Testament was the primary influence, both in terms of content and modes of interpretation. Though the Old Testament was only partially translated into Old English, recent studies have shown how completely interconnected Anglo-Latin and Old English literary traditions are. Old English Literature and the Old Testament considers the importance of the Old Testament from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, from comparative to intertextual and historical. Though the essays focus on individual works, authors, or trends, including the Interrogationes Sigewulfi, Genesis A, and Daniel, each ultimately speaks to the vernacular corpus as a whole, suggesting approaches and methodologies for further study.
Download or read book Physiologus written by and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2009-10-15 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most popular and widely read books of the Middle Ages, Physiologus contains allegories of beasts, stones, and trees both real and imaginary, infused by their anonymous author with the spirit of Christian moral and mystical teaching. Accompanied by an introduction that explains the origins, history, and literary value of this curious text, this volume also reproduces twenty woodcuts from the 1587 version. Originally composed in the fourth century in Greek, and translated into dozens of versions through the centuries, Physiologus will delight readers with its ancient tales of ant-lions, centaurs, and hedgehogs—and their allegorical significance. “An elegant little book . . . still diverting to look at today. . . . The woodcuts reproduced from the 1587 Rome edition are alone worth the price of the book.”—Raymond A. Sokolov, New York Times Book Review

Download or read book Old English Prose and Verse written by Roger Fowler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-02-23 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1966, this book provides students of the earliest stage of our literature with a selection of texts for a complete introductory course. All the principal poems and prose works in this literature are represented, including more generous extracts from Beowulf than are common in anthologies of this type. By omitting texts of primarily philological and historical interest it has been possible to include enough literary texts to satisfy all but the advanced student, who will follow this volume with the specialised editions available. A departure from the traditional design of Old English anthologies is the provision of full critical and annotative apparatus. In the past it has been necessary for students to go beyond their Readers, to specialised editions or to learned articles, in order to discover even the most basic information about the extracts or their content. Here each text is accompanied by an introduction which gives brief details of (where known) date, authorship, manuscript situation, character and critical interest. Line-by-line explanatory notes are also provided, and a bibliography of books and articles for further study. The glossary aims to be more explicit about form and meaning, and easier to use than those of earlier selections.
Download or read book Revival Chapters on Old English Literature 1935 written by Edith Elizabeth Wardale and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-03-29 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These chapters on Old English Literature are intended to fill the gap between Professor Thomas’s valuable, but all too brief account in his English Literature before Chaucer, and longer works, such as those of Stopford Brooke and the Chapters in the first volume of the Cambridge History of English Literature. My primary object has, of course, been to make the works themselves known to my readers, but I have also tried to trace the development of prose and poetry during the period, showing in the poetry the modifications of the original Germanic character brought about by later influences of all kinds, and noting those forms or features which lead on to Middle English. In dealing with the many unsettled questions, I have given only the views which seem to me most important. Had I wished to do more, it would obviously have been impossible in the space which I have allowed myself; but references to other works are added for a student who may wish to make a more thorough investigation of such points for himself.
