Old English Philology: Studies in Honour of R.D. Fulk (Anglo-Saxon Studies) edited by Tom A. Shippey, Leonard Neidorf, Rafael J. Pascual
Requirements: .PDF reader, 5 MB
Overview: Robert D. Fulk is arguably the greatest Old English philologist to emerge during the twentieth century; his corpus of scholarship has fundamentally shaped contemporary understanding of many aspects of Anglo-Saxon literary history and English historical linguistics.
This volume, in his honour, brings together essays which engage with his work and advance his research interests. Scholarship on historical metrics and the dating, editing, and interpretation of Old English poetry thus forms the core of this book; other topics addressed include syntax, phonology, etymology, lexicology, and paleography. An introductory overview of Professor Fulk’s achievements puts these studies in context, alongside essays which assess his contributions to metrical theory and his profound impact on the study of Beowulf. By consolidating and augmenting Fulk’s research, this collection takes readers to the cutting edge of Old English philology.
