The Old English Riddles and the Riddlic Elements of Old English Poetry
ISBN: 9783631523599 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The art of posing riddles is possibly as old as mankind and spans two apparent extremes which, nevertheless, converge in the riddlic form: that of wisdom and that of play. With this perspective in mind, the author examines the poetic enigmas present in the culture of Anglo-Saxon England, exploring both the Anglo-Latin riddles of Aldhelm and those recorded in the Exeter Book. His study investigates the Old English riddlic texts from a variety of angles, arguing for the possibility of establishing patterns of Anglo-Saxon riddlic composition as such. Rafal Boryslawski intends to prove that both...

Scribes, Printers, and the Accidentals of Their Texts
ISBN: 9783631607121 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The essays in this collection demonstrate that much can be learned from studying features such as word-division, printer s type, and spelling conventions. These features termed -accidentals- by W. W. Greg typically receive little attention when editors discuss how a text became actualized in a particular medieval manuscript or early modern print. To study these features, it is essential to consider a text in the context of the manuscript or print housing it, rather than a modern edition. The texts discussed range in genre from religious (AElfric s Letter to Sigeweard, and the...

Non-European Women in Chaucer: A Postcolonial Study
ISBN: 9783631550571 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Since Jeffrey Jerome Cohen edited The Postcolonial Middle Ages in 2000, some scholars have applied postcolonial criticism to the study of the Middle Ages. However, even in postcolonial studies of Chaucer, the role of non-European women in his work has not yet been fully discussed. Using postcolonial theory, the author explores how Chaucer represents non-European women, his Others both in gender and in culture. Her examination of non-European women in his work from a non-Westerner s point of view reveals that his representation is complicated and ambivalent, showing diverse views. The...

The Beginnings of Standardization: Language and Culture in Fourteenth-Century England
ISBN: 9783631551066 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Developing a written standard is one of the most fundamental institutional achievements of a society. On the threshold to the Modern Era the vernaculars massively gained ground in writing throughout Western Europe. They soon underwent regularization and eventually standardization. In England, however, the situation was quite different from that of the continent: well into the 14th century the literate space was filled mainly by Latin and French. For a long time Chaucer has been regarded as having brought about the victory of English. But recent research calls for a broader perspective...
