Book The Old English Gloss to the Lindisfarne Gospels

Download or read book The Old English Gloss to the Lindisfarne Gospels written by Julia Fernández Cuesta and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2016-03-21 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aldred’s interlinear gloss to the Lindisfarne Gospels (London, British Library, MS Cotton Nero D.IV) is one of the most substantial representatives of the Old English variety known as late Old Northumbrian. Although it has received a great deal of attention in the past two centuries, there are still numerous issues which remain unresolved. The papers in this collection approach the gloss from a variety of perspectives – language, cultural milieu, palaeography, glossography – in order to shed light on many of these issues, such as the authorship of the gloss, the morphosyntax and vocabulary of the dialect(s) it represents, its sources and relationship to the Rushworth Gospels, and Aldred’s cultural and religious affiliations. Because of its breadth of coverage, the collection will be of interest and great value to scholars in the fields of Anglo-Saxon studies and English historical linguistics.

Book Rethinking and Recontextualizing Glosses

Download or read book Rethinking and Recontextualizing Glosses written by Patrizia Lendinara and published by Brepols Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Glossing was a scribal practice in use since antiquity, but it was in the Middle Ages that it acquired a wider meaning and a different role, becoming one of the most widespread forms of literacy in the Germanic West, including the British Isles. Most of the essays collected in this volume focus on the late Anglo-Saxon period, that is a well-identified time-frame spanning from the Benedictine Reform to the eleventh century. As recent scholarship has convincingly established, the second half of the tenth century and the beginning of the eleventh saw the blooming of Anglo-Saxon scholarship and a remarkable advance in educational practices. Within this cultural resurgence, glossing undoubtedly played no small role and was particularly vital in centres such as Abingdon, Canterbury, and Winchester. In the contributions to the present volume, the relationship between glosses and the text they accompany is always explored on the basis of their manuscript context. The essays are devoted to both Latin and Old English apparatuses of glosses as well as to specific items of the Old Norse and Old Saxon glossarial production.

Book A Catalogue of Manuscripts Known to Contain Old English Dry Point Glosses

Download or read book A Catalogue of Manuscripts Known to Contain Old English Dry Point Glosses written by Dieter Studer-Joho and published by Narr Francke Attempto Verlag. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While quill and ink were the writing implements of choice in the Anglo-Saxon scriptorium, other colouring and non-colouring writing implements were in active use, too. The stylus, among them, was used on an everyday basis both for taking notes in wax tablets and for several vital steps in the creation of manuscripts. Occasionally, the stylus or perhaps even small knives were used for writing short notes that were scratched in the parchment surface without ink. One particular type of such notes encountered in manuscripts are dry-point glosses, i.e. short explanatory remarks that provide a translation or a clue for a lexical or syntactic difficulty of the Latin text. The present study provides a comprehensive overview of the known corpus of dry-point glosses in Old English by cataloguing the 34 manuscripts that are currently known to contain such glosses. A first general descriptive analysis of the corpus of Old English dry-point glosses is provided and their difficult visual appearance is discussed with respect to the theoretical and practical implications for their future study.

Book Old English Glosses

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Old English Metre offers an essential framework for the critical analysis of metrical structures and interpretations in Old English literature.

He also covers the metre-related problems of dating, authorship, and the distinction between prose and verse. Each chapter includes exercises and suggestions for further reading. Appendices provide possible answers to the exercises, tips for scanning half-lines, and brief definitions of metrical terms used.

Book Binomials in the History of English

Download or read book Binomials in the History of English written by Joanna Kopaczyk and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-07-03 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Binomials, such as for and against, dead or alive, to have and to hold, can be broadly defined as two words belonging to the same grammatical category and linked by a semantic relationship. They are an important phraseological phenomenon present throughout the history of the English language. This volume offers a range of studies on binomials, their types and functions from Old English through to the present day. Searching for motivations and characteristic features of binomials in a particular genre or writer, the chapters engage with many linguistic levels of analysis, such as phonology or semantics, and explore the important role of translation. Drawing on philological and corpus-linguistic approaches, the authors employ qualitative and quantitative methods, setting the discussion firmly in the extra-linguistic context. Binomials and their extended forms - multinomials - emerge from these discussions as an important phraseological tool, with rich applications and complex motivations.
