Studies in English Medieval Language and Literature 55
Content:
This volume is a collection of papers read at the International Medieval Congress at Leeds in 2017, in two sessions organized by the Institute of English Studies at the University of London and four sessions organized by the Society of Historical English Language and Linguistics. Contributions consist of poetry, prose, interlinear glosses, syntax, semantics, lexicology, and medievalism. The contributors employ a wealth of different approaches. The general theme of the IMC 2017 was ‘otherness’, and some papers fit this theme very well. Even when two researchers deal with a similar topic and arrive at different conclusions, the editors do not try to harmonize them but present them as they are for further discussion.
Note:
Researches vary: word order between auxiliary verbs and main verbs in Old English poetry, simple verbs and periphrases, uses of personal and demonstrative pronouns, words of cooking, weaving, and words meaning ‘people’, word-formation in glosses, a proposal of a new Old English corpus, etc.
