     summary: Keywords: hagiography, Ælfric; humour theory; translation 1. The pagan and the saint in Life of St Cecilia 5 An effective model for the analysis of literary humour, particularly useful for this study, has been suggested by N. J. Lowe and can be charted simply through the following process: Social frame  cognitive mechanism  affective response  physiological expression This process for analysis is based on Salvatore Attardo’s 1994 metacritical overview of the major categories of humour theory (Lowe 2007: 7–8).

     summary: The other interesting assumption —not so widely held— in the context of “categorization” and “metaphysics” applied to medieval English is the construction of many of the foundations of the history of the English language on myths: “communally shared narratives told in the construction of an idelological set of beliefs” (Watts 2011: 10), affecting, in this case, the 2 In the case of historical sociolinguistics, the limitations of data also impinge on the stylistic, social, and demographic information available: the impossibility of having access to the social and communicative contexts in which language was produced and received and to the characteristics of the society where the relevant speech acts were produced, as well as the lack of knowledge on the socio-demographic background of informants —age, gender, education, social status, social networks— which often remains hidden behind the anonimity of texts. In this context, “categorization” draws into how the object of research known as medieval English is recognised, differentiated and understood, i.e. “constructed through interpretation and classification of the linguistic record by means of varying practical and theoretical concerns” (p. 7).

The arguments which negate the existence of the separated genitive in Old English are critically reviewed in the study and reassessed in the light of fresh evidence retrieved from a large corpus of texts.

     summary: Comparing the ‘Finn story’ in Beowulf and The Fight at Finnsburh Melissa J. Venables University of Nottingham Beowulf has long been acknowledged as a story full of stories. As this episode participates in the reflective nexus of stories told within Beowulf, it also poses modern readers an interesting question: which other embedded narratives has the poet changed in order to manipulate the point of each story and of Beowulf as a whole?

One such concern on which Beowulf adaptations have especially focused is that of the gendered power structures that appear in the poem, in particular the tension between the patriarchal world of Heorot and the matriarchal mere and its female occupant, Grendel’s mother.

     summary: The Roman missionaries may not have translated the Bible into English (although the English Church, along with those of the Irish, would soon display an open mind in translating Scripture), but they were apparently quick to commit Kent’s Germanic law- code to the “safe-keeping” of writing, thereby beginning the processes of transliterating Old English into the Roman script and integrating the Church into the social structure.15 Augustine’s role in inventing written Old English is perhaps best viewed in the context of the mission’s instructions fr om Yet, even if we were to accept the premise that Germanic bards were capable of composing, preserving and transmitting a complex epic poem of the nature of Beowulf across several centuries before it was written down in the Nowell Codex or any earlier lost manuscript intermediaries, then the scholarly trend to place the origins of written Old English in the Alfr edian era has still tended to preclude this hypothesis.

     summary: Medieval drama survived for much longer than we tend to assume. Some dramatic genres, such as the saints’ plays, did indeed die out along with the cults of the saints they celebrated, and have left very little surviving evidence: only one, Mary Magdalene, survives in anything like full- scale dramatic form, though that, interestingly, operates through a stagecraft remarkably close to that of Shakespeare’s Pericles. Moralities, the allegorical plays that segued into interludes in the course of the sixteenth century, were a late medieval development and reached their peak in the early Tudor age; they were still being acted, and actively remembered, until late in the century, Medieval drama in the Elizabethan Age 239 SELIM 20 (2013–2014)

     summary: Since the phonological structure of this Old English word can be accounted for only by reference to the linguistic history of Old Norse, it is more probable to regard it as an Old Norse borrowing than to consider it an inexplicable exception to the phonological regularities of Old English. Nevertheless, as the author of the book under review points out (Pons-Sanz 2013: 11–12), many of the Norse-derived terms attested in Old English texts are non-technical, which means that, despite the general opinion, they already evince some of the features that make Norse-derived terms in Middle English so important for the study of the history of the English language.

Christina “manfully” resists “the desires of her fl esh,” and through fasting and scourging she “tamed her lascivious body” (Talbot 1998: 115)Up to this point in the narrative, Christina’s female body has fi gured prominently, but this passage draws great attention to the discourse of misogyny, as Christina becomes the temptress of the cleric, burns with the ravenous sexual desire that marks all women in this paradigm, and can only resist the demands of her female body 143 Visions, power, and Margery Kempe SELIM 18 (2011) by becoming “manly” in her self-discipline.23 Not surprisingly, however, Christina’s relief comes % om divine dreams.

     summary: Like Gildas, he was read in Breton schools, and several manuscripts of him have Old Breton glosses (Jackson 1953: 62, 65). It begins with a ninth-century Latin life of St Pol (fi rst bishop of Léon in Brittany) by the Breton monk Wrmonoc, who remarked that Gildas in a book “which they call Ormesta Britanniae” wrote de ipsius insulae situ atque miseriis (we shall return to those “miseries”).

     summary: Concerning the evolution of formulas during the Middle Ages, the possible triple connection between formula, script and cultural movement is stressed there several times, and the central position of Italy, France and the German Reich versus the peripheral character of the British Isles or the Iberian Peninsula is also a point to be noted. Taking the Benedictine catalogue as the base for his corpus, but with the addition of more than a thousand new instances taken * om other sources (the several volumes of the Catalogue des manuscrits datés, together with Lowe 1934–1971 and Pellegrin & Gilles-Raynal 1975– 1982), the Belgian scholar set out to prove the existence of “systems of formulas” in western colophons, and to study how these systems developed in time, space and social strata. Attempting a full analysis of all the formulas recorded by the Bouveret benedictines is obviously out of the question: the sheer number of examples would make that a feat near impossible to achieve, at least by a single person.

     summary: Therefore, if on the one hand, The Book of Margery Kempe could be regarded as exemplary of the “vague, confused, agmentary” style of female autobiography, on the other hand, many critics still prefer to adjust its limits to the model of a specific kind of biographyhagiography. Formally, the main difference between them rests on the presence or absence of correlation between character and narrator, since otherwise both modes coincide in being individual life accounts written for the public consumption. : A 191 Confession and Gossip in The Book of Margery Kempe Selim  () Companion to The Book of Margery Kempe.

     summary: The knowledge about a Germanic oral literature tradition like that of the later Icelandic sagas has led scholars to the hypothesis that the Anglo- Saxon Chronicle entry for the year 755 could be the product of a similar Germanic oral literature tradition which may have also existed in Anglo-Saxon England. Ignacio Murillo López 86 According to Towers, “The story of Cynewulf and Cyneheard, the Anglo- Saxon Chronicle entry for 755, is unique among the pre-Alfredian entries both for its artfulness and for its complexity”1 (1963: 310); and, as White has remarked, “In an unusually lengthy entry for the year 757, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle recounts a complex and well-crafted story, which the chronicler and his contemporaries presumably found interesting, dramatic, and perhaps even instructive and which modern scholars have never tired of retelling”2 (1989: 1).

     summary: Carmen Mª Fernández Rodríguez 236 Her aware attitude can be related to the Dissenter Mary Wollstonecraft, who denounced in A Vindication of the Rights of Woman (1792),10 the fact that “understanding has been strictly denied to women; and instinct sublimated into wit and cunning, for the purposes of life has been substituted in its stead” (1975: 143). I will try to show how both Doringen and Griselda denounced the constraints imposed by patriarchy and lived in a world as debilitating for women as early nineteenth-century Engliosh society.

     summary: Within our entrenched genetic view of language history, it is frequently quite useful, when studying a particular change in a particular language, to look at similar developments in related languages; say, we can study Old English Breaking in the framework of the other Germanic languages (Howell 1991). Toward a Common History of the Germanic and European Languages 15 Centring our attention, when doing language history, in the evolution of the individual languages and the genetic groups brings about the danger of seeing change teleologically:

     summary: The notion of lexical template has been integrated in the Lexical Grammar Model framework for lexical analysis as a way of representing the interaction between syntax and semantics within lexical classes. In consonance with this, this theory puts forward a procedure of lexical representation by means of an inventory of lexical templates and lexical mapping rules which will enable us to account for the syntactic configuration of a given predicate.

     summary: Thus, the initial element dyrne- is never attested in poetry, while compounds containing “alms” appear three times,18 and ciric- 18 Other instances in poetry of the compound element ælm(e)s- include ælmesdæd- (“the performance of alms”) in The Seasons for Fasting, lines 41a and 191a, and The Rewards of Poetry: Homiletic” Verse in CCCC 201 91 only once.19 By contrast, the solely poetic compounds found in the list are predominantly heroic, a rather strange phenomenon given the generally hortatory feel of the poem: the aforementioned hilderinc (“warrior”) occurs 11 times in poetry, with the same alliterative half-line har hilderinc (“grey warrior”) occurring a further four times in Beowulf (lines 1306 and 3134), Maldon (line 168), and Brunanburh (line 37). While Scragg opposes Whitbread’s earlier claim that Napier 29 and 30 were by the same author, he argues a close if not direct textual connection between Napier 29 and CCCC 201 in the adaptation of lines shared with Rewards.

     summary: The Sowdoun of Babyloyne: A Description of the Manuscript 183 Heberiana started on 10 February 1836.11 After the dispersal of Phillipps’s extensive collection, the manuscript was sold by auction to Quaritch, the renowned antiquarian firm,12 for £60 in 1898.13 The volume was advertised in Quaritch’s catalogues of 1898, 1899, and 1902 at the published price of £80,14 and eventually sold in 1905 to Robert Garrett (1875-1961).15 In 1942 Garrett donated to Princeton University Library 171 western manuscripts of his private collection, including that of The Sowdoun.16 (see figure 1) 11 Bibliotheca Heberiana. All facsimiles from the manuscript are reproduced with the permission of Princeton University Library.

     summary: In other words, this monk-anthologist of Waltham Abbey shaped a book in which the history of England, beginning with Brutus, led directly Carter Revard 18 to his good friend John de Marthon, treasurer of the Duke of Lancaster: could this imply that John was a connoisseur of poetry or even himself a poet, and thus more likely to recommend Walter's Pearl as plesaunt to princes paye—Prince John of Gaunt, that is? [e.g.,the Black Prince and later his son Richard II] owned a hunting lodge on an eminence recorded as Knight's Low....just two miles from Ludchurch [which Elliott would identify as the site of the Green Chapel].

     summary: The Group is currently working on the edition of one of the manuscripts kept in the College Archive —Sketch of British History, an ecclesiastical history of early Britain written in the 18th century by former College Rector Philip Perry. The Scottish Archives hold ten manuscript volumes by Philip Perry, all but one of which coincide either in title or in subject matter with the Valladolid texts.13 The parallelism between the Valladolid and the Edinburgh papers is one we are currently examining, but this early we are almost certain that the Edinburgh versions of the texts with similar title kept in Valladolid are the final versions of the San Albano drafts.14 In any case, Michael Williams gives some evidence as to how the works could have reached Scotland: John Geddes, Rector of the Scots College in Valladolid and a friend of Perry's with similar bibliophile interests, would have mediated after the English Rector's death to have the books transferred to the Isles since he thought that those revised final versions merited publication (1983:

     summary: Nearly all the wills come from between the middle of the tenth century and the Conquest, and nearly all owe their preservation to their containing bequests to the abbeys of Abingdon, Bury St. Edmunds, Christ Church, Canterbury and Winchester.1 Whitelock argues that written wills were more common than the existing manuscript distribution would indicate: “that great numbers of wills from Anglo-Saxon times have perished is shown not only by fairly frequent references in Anglo-Saxon documents from the ninth century onwards to wills no longer extant, but also by the distribution of those wills which have survived” (Whitelock 1930: xli). Michael Drout 16 If an individual’s identity is in part constituted by his or her ability to influence other individuals, then the post-mortem influence enabled by written wills is a means of perpetuating individual identity after death.

     summary: SELIM09.doc Alicia Rodríguez, Selim 9 (1999): 11—20 SEGMENTATION OF 15TH-CENTURY LEGAL TEXTS: A RECONSIDERATION OF PUNCTUATION Until now most of the studies on punctuation of late Middle English manu- scripts have dealt with literary or religious works, and the main concern has been to discern whether the ultimate end of punctuation marks was to in dic- ate pauses ”used on a rhetorical, liturgical or oral basis “ (Blake, 1977: 67) or to set off sense units; in other words, to decide if pauses were rhetorical or grammatical. In leases, for Alicia Rodríguez 14 example, the warranty clause expresses the owner’s willingness to defend the rights of the lessee: & also yer sall no catell bot horse com with in ye Orcharde And also ye sam X and Y ar agreyd at ye sall no catell bot horse com with in ye orchard and in marriage articles, especially after the 15th century, a formula expres sed the bridegrooms’ fathers’ renunciation of all his properties except a rent or an estate for his maintenance: And the said John the fadir schall alene no land ne rent that come or schall come to hym be any of his auncestr And the said John Trolhope thelder shal not alien eny landes or tenementes that now er comen or shal come to hym by the disceesse of eny of his auncestres We started this paper dealing with the role of punctuation, but given the evidence that the use of punctuation marks was not at all consistent, we decided to look for other marks of segmentation.

They compete with one another, and there is clearly an animated rivalry between them … Other younger birds practise their music, and are given verses to imitate …” (345).

In Chaucer's Canterbury Tales there are two basic authenticating devices: the dream-vision pattern that helps to establish the distance between dream and reality, in the opposite way as Bloomfield suggests, and the individual interplay of the pilgrims, as Kittredge explains it, but considered as a dramatis personae not as narrative characters.

     summary: Aristotle says there are three types of rhetorical discourses: “deliberat- ive”, “judicial”, and what he calls “’επιδεικτικóν”, whose aim is the praise and censorship. The first Medieval rhetorician appeared in the 4th century BC, C. Julius Victor wrote Ars Rhetorica, and added three appendices: De Exercitation, De Sermocinatione, and De Epistolis In the second one, he defends that regular rhetorical theory does not include the sermo, that is, the informal discourse, and in the third one, he distinguishes two types of letters: the official ones (negotiales), and the familiar ones (familiares).

     summary: Martin M. Crow and Clair C.

I am very grateful to Martha S. Waller, retired Professor of Butler University, for sending me Howard's references to Philippa Chaucer from this book, and for her advice and corrections on this article.

     summary: In this paper, the issue of compound nouns during the Old English period will be developed on the basis of two of Ælfric’s Lives of Saints. As for compound nouns, they imply, by definition, a condensation of the information, because the procedure of the formation of compound nouns en- tails the suppression of superfluous elements, such as prepositions, which do not add any significant information.

Like other books of this kind it is a compilation of ‘the doctryne gyuen by many auctors’, military advice drawn from a number of sources, classical and medieval.

Mnookin explicitly omits Malory’s allusion to Lancelot’s reason for visit - ing Guenevere in the convent.

      flesch: 62
     summary: In Chaucer's Canterbury Tales there are two basic authenticating devices: the dream-vision pattern that helps to establish the distance between dream and reality, the self and the percepction of the self, in the opposite way as Bloomfield suggests, and the individual interplay of the pilgrims, as Kittredge explains it, but considered as a “dramatis per- sonae” not as narrative characters. In fact, the controversies that have traditionaly preoccupied Chaucer criticism have focused not on the legitimacy of this procedure but rather on the terms of its practice.

      flesch: 58
     summary: To conclude with, and after all which has been alleged, we can state that reli- gion has been nearly omnipresent in the history of drama, from its very be- ginning, and that the Church, especially, played an essential, though also paradoxical, role in the incipient medieval drama, to the extent that it went on exerting its influence until the end of the 16th century, when, at the height of their aesthetic achievement, morality plays were suppressed in England, mainly because religious drama was beginning to degenerate into an instru - ment of politico-religious propaganda under successive Roman Catholic and Protestant governments. The characteristic of Greek drama that emphasizes its universal scale is the interaction between chorus and protagonist.

     summary: The most ambitious of these projects, however, was undertaken at the University of Toronto under the direction of Angus Cameron who proposed to generate an electronic database containing everything written in Old English, 3.000.000 words con- tained in the 2000 surviving Old English texts. His essay is divided into six sections in order to cover the various electronic resources used in Old English studies nowadays: The Dictionary of Old English and the electronic text;

     summary: Their theory evinces a more individualistic conception of the rise of Standard English, at least, at the very beginning of the process. ____________________________________________________________________ 215 Chancery English is just one functional variety of written English, with a very limited readership, whereas Standard English has come to be multifunctional. Fisher’s claim that Chancery English can be regarded as the immediate ancestor of Standard English has been amply criticised by Norman Davis who in his article “The Language of Two Brothers in the Fifteenth Century”1 states that it is hard to support evidence of a written standard in view of the writings of some high status members of society even at this date being, hence, unpredictable the degree of influence exerted by the Chancery.

     summary: The interaction of these elements in the communication act reveals, Camargo says, “… that the tensions masked by the dictatores’ confident as - sertion of the three officially sanctioned functions of a letter were actually felt by medieval “writers” and “readers” of letters” (9). Georgiana Donavin reinforces this opinion in her collaboration, “Locating a Public Forum for the Personal Letter in Malory’s Morte Darthur” (19-36), and emphasises the importance that even Malory grants to this epistolary art, including a series of letters in his Morte Darthur (1469).

     summary: Anacronistic as it may sound, the idea of copies of Old English texts be- ing treated as a basic source of information of dialectal diversity in the early Middle English period represents one of the most solid methodological prin - ciples the LAEME project lies on. These categories correspond roughly to three different scribal attitudes towards Old English texts, based on the scope of the linguis tic innovations introduced by the copyists (Díaz 1994: 459-465).

     summary: Thus, stereotyped comparisons can only be regarded as such when the second term of the comparison counts on the obligatory presence of a noun, otherwise, it is just a casual form of comparison with scarce possibilities of lexicalization. Kerkhof (1982: 376-89) outlines some cases of stereotyped comparisons in Chaucer and it was precisely from his suggestions that the idea for this article arose.

     summary: The religious emphasis given to procreation and the lack of reliable contraception ensured that the lives of many women were dominated by a cycle of pregnancy and childbirt h. There was little chance of special treatment, except for the restrictive kind, due to superstitions and tra - ditional beliefs dating from the Romans and Greeks, and antenatal care was almost non-existent. If we also take into account the fact that many women fasted as a religious penance, for example Margery Kempe, it is easy to see that pregnancy was beset with risks and suffering that would affect the behaviour of any woman.

       words: 5976
      flesch: 58
     summary: The review of the structure of Deor sanctions the hypothesis that the poem relied on the expectation that the audience was able to make use of Germanic history and traditional legends in order to fill in the gaps which mere hints in the text leave open. This idea is so widespre - ad that most criticism has been directed towards unveiling the allu sions the poem makes to other texts of the Germanic world.

     summary: For instance, the stopping of Grendel is attributed to the combined action of wise God and coura geous Beowulf. In response to the criticism of some of the most important and highly regarded scholars in the field, I will examine Beowulf’s character in light of the gnomic passages in Beowulf to show that, in fact, he was a good leader, acting in a way that is not only acceptable but commendable in Anglo -Saxon society.

      flesch: 68
     summary: As regards phonology, Welsh e, at times more open than English e, was usually taken into Old English as e, but also as æ (thus Æsce, the river Axe, Somerset).2 If borrowed from cledr, English claedur and cledur would accord with this, cleadur in Corpus resulting from later back mutation.3 The main difficulty for claedur <Welsh cledr is cladærsticca, claderstec- ca and cladersticca ‘clapper stick’, where the first a is problematic. Andrew Breeze ____________________________________________________________________ 124 with Gothic klismo ‘Klingel’ (the ‘tinkling cymbal’ of I Corinthians 13: 1).1 This suggestion re ceives no support from Feist.2 Since attempts to explain claedur as Germanic are unsatisfactory, could it be from Welsh cledr or cledyr ‘stave’, which it resembles in form and mean- ing?

     summary: It says those who borrow from need no more commit sin than a woman who is raped, or a sea- farer Jettisoning cargo in a storm, or a traveller giving thieves his purse befo - re they cut his throat (torri i dagell).3 Having clarified the semantic range of Welsh tagell, we can turn to the Cornish evidence. The tagell ‘constriction’ here is the narrow neck of land Joining this spectacular defensive site to the Cornish mainland.4 The verbal element *tak- ‘choke, strangle’ was, then, well attested in Cel- tic; tagell ‘neck, constriction’ is known in early Welsh and Cornish; and the sense tagell ‘snare’ was also known at an early date (a full account here must await completion of Geiriadur Prifysgol Cymru).5 1 Charles Muscatine, Chaucer and the French Tradition (Berkeley, 1957).

     summary: While Greek and Latin struggle for survival in Spanish Secondary schools, in British universities Old English (henceforth OE) is not in very good health ei- ther. As a result, the most immediate aim of Bruce Mitchell’s book, An Invi- tation to Old English and Anglo-Saxon England is, as he himself states in the fore word, “to increase the popularity of Old English, to make it, in the dictio nary sense of the word, both ‘of or carried on by people’ and ‘liked and admired by people’, people including university students and general readers.”

From Chap- ter Two to Chapter Seven, McMahon deals with purely grammatical features attested in language change.

     summary: The abundance of fig ures in many chapter —for example chapters 4 (19 figures), 7 (19 figures) and 9 (15 figures)— is also worth commenting, because all of them are impeccable and very useful. Reviews, S. G. Fernández-Corugedo ____________________________________________________________________ 168 Another minor point that concerns the list of references is both a strong dependency on English-speaking sources: although this is not just normal, it is also natural in the sense that the book is aimed at younger students, and a scarcity of recent items: there are less than 10 books or articles later than 1992 out of some 430 entries. Thus I have been unable to find al- lusions to R. Hogg’s books on Old English (1992a, 1992b) or on metrical pho- nology, or to Denison’s English Historical Syntax (1993), and I am also un- able to procure myself information about other specific bibliography on either Reviews: Anthony Fox 1995 ____________________________________________________________________ 167 the history of English or on that of any other major Western language from the sources quoted in the book (not even on German, being Dr. Fox’s main foreign field —see Fox 1984—, unless we may consider that Grimm’s Deut- sche Grammatik and other 19th c monographs quoted are quite enough).

Bloom- field, Piers Plowman as a Fourteenth Century Apocalypse (New Brunswick, NJ, n.d.), pp. Yet we might after all want to know about these things, and the authors evidently supposed that their readers would: their apparent irrele- vance to what we suppose to be the subject of debate may be counterbalan- ced by the evident pleasure taken by the poets in the rehearsal and, more par- ticularly, the versification of such knowledge.

     summary: 1Skeat is of the opinion that the omission of lines 44-49 in Book XX in MS C and in some editions is not intentional but an unconscious gap on the part of the scribe or editor due to the coincidence in the line-endings: line 44 ends with ser and the same word appears in line 50. ____________________________________________________________________ 53 However, differences in the distribution of ‹ y › and ‹ i › can be also ap- preciated in a look at the first lines of the poem in the two manuscripts: lines 3, 28 and 32 show kyng (in C) and king (in E); line 4 shows ficht (in C) and fycht (in E); his (C) and hys (in E) appear in lines 3 and 6; line 2 contains re- parit in C and reparyt in E. 2) ‹ u ›, ‹ v › and ‹ w › occur indiscriminately in MSS C and E to represent both vocalic and consonantal sounds; MS C seems to prefer ‹ v › and ‹ u › and MS E ‹ w ›: MS C MS E line 15 cheuelry chewalry line 29 throu throw line 40 valour walour line 43 sevin sewyn line 53t housand thowsand Nevertheless, some coincidences such as tour1 (line 39), syluir in C and siluer in E (line 54), awn(e) (line 21) indicate that different spellings cannot be described as characteristic of one or the other MS, but as mere tendencies of the scribe at work. The poem is extant in two different manuscripts, MS G. 23 in the Library of St. John’s College, Cambridge (known as MS C), written in 1487 and the manuscript in the Advocate’s Library at Edinburgh (known as MS E), com- pleted in 1489.

     summary: In his use of original Anglo -Saxon words that have come down into Modern En - glish with no substantial change in meaning, such as ‘hewed’, ‘holt’, ‘wrought’, ‘fell’ (= slay), ‘bale’, and ‘wan’, he was undoubtedly aided by both the original text as well as a need to adhere to an alliterative pattern. The reason is not far to seek: in its ____________________________________________________________________ 131 close, or reasonably close, approximation to the alliterative patterns, rhythms, diction, and curtness of style of Anglo -Saxon verse, he succeeds in re - creating the atmosphere of the original.

     summary: Most scholars and students of Old English studies knows, among many other of his works, A Guide to Old English (with Bruce Mitchell) 5th ed. , the volume under review mirrors the richness of mind and spirit of its author and the volume leaves one with admiration for the quality of Robinson’s works; in this book, in one way or another, he ex- presses his ideas and feelings on Old English summed up in the following lines from an interview with him at Yale few years ago: The one branch of English literature which is least vulnerable to this at- tack, however, is, I believe, Old English, because scholars and students of Old English literature have never been persuaded to abandon the primary texts and go over to “theory”.

     summary: One of the key notions of FG that plays a fundamental role in our transla - tion study is that of underlying predication. Then, on the basis of this idea, a translation model (Dik 1979 and 1986; Van der Korst, 1990) is formulated by means of describing the procedure for arriving at the mechanical translation of underlying predica- tions of one language into underlying predications of another language.

     summary: The central register of the illumination shows St. Peter striking the devil with his key and trying to release from his clutches a soul whose fate seems to be at stake, whereas the top and bottom sections depict the celestial city and the mouth of hell respectively In a recent study, however, David F. Johnson has noted significant differences with traditional and contemporary representations of this theme and, analyzing iconographic details in the light of Old English homiletic literature, has concluded that the scene is rather a vision of indi- vidual judgement at the moment of death and represents the efficacy of inter- cessory prayer.1 This re-interpretation can be further refined through a com- parison with the 12th century Latin miracle of the monk of St. Peter’s at Cologne, which constitutes a very close parallel to the central register of the Stowe drawing.

     summary: ”3 R. E. Kaske pointed out that sapientia et fortitudo can be considered as a single theme common to epic heroes and, sometimes, it is manifested sepa- rately in two different characters, but complementing each other, as in the case of Roland and Oliver in the Chanson of Roland. The firmly rooted concept of loyalty within the Germanic comitatus about which Tacitus talks in chapter XIII of his Germania, plays as well an important role in the conduct of epic heroes.

     summary: SELIM03.pdf 124 Rubén Valdés, Selim 3 (1993): 117-148 THE WONDER TALE PATTERN OF SIR ORFEO The medieval English lay of Sir Orfeo has a long and complex history linking it to sources and antecedents in various cultures: the Hellenistic myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, its interpretation by Boethius, King Alfred’s Old English translation of Boethius, the influence of Gaelic and Welsh legend, and Anglo -Norman romance narrative. The ballad is probably a far derivation of some un- known version of Sir Orfeo or of the Scottish King Orphius, through a long process of oral transmission, and its existence is a witness to the grip and durability of the medieval lay in the mind of traditional tellers and singers.

     summary: The author ably sets out current knowledge of Cornish literature at a time when its texts are receiving fresh attention from editors and critics in Britain, Austria, and the United States. In six chapters, Brian Murdoch’s book describes the scanty re mains of Old Cornish; the four works (the Poem of the Passion, Ordinalia, Creation of the World, and play of Saint Meriasek) which make up the bulk of Middle Cornish literature; and the varied texts of Modern Cornish during its seven- teenth- and eighteenth-century decline, and twentieth-century form devised by enthusiasts attempting to revive it as a spoken and written language.

The development and study of these feasts proves the influence of the Virgin in Anglo -Saxon church, culture and society as Mary Clayton pointed out.

       words: 2917
      flesch: 43
     summary: Hogg’s discussion of the sources for Old English is masterly: by sticking to the highly commendable habit of making a critical analysis of the evidence available prior to drawing any conclusion from its study, he not only gives a lesson in historical linguistics research in general, but also emphasizes an aspect of earlier stages of English we some times tend to forget: that what we are bound to find in any case is a distorted image, but although the ultimate reasons for this are beyond our control (a limited and unexpandable body of data) there is still a great degree of distortion produced in the different stages of scholarly work (i.e. text editing) regarding which we should be both aware and exigent. It is not sur- prising, therefore, that crucial innovations in IndoEuropean studies should be omitted (Meillet’s, Trubetzkoy’s or, as usual, Spanish works) or that, when others are mentioned (the discovery of Hittite, f.i.), they are just ig nored when coming to the actual reconstruction of the Germanic ancestry of Old English.

F. Th. Visser, An Historical Syntax of the Old English Language (Leiden: E. J. Brill, 1969), Part III, 1st. Ex7, then, provides a good example, on the one hand, of the hesita- tion in punctuating wolde clauses and, on the other hand, of the incon- sistency of handling them as independent sentences.

     summary: Monsters were earlier described as part escapist fantasy in their creation, and the linking of monstrosity with sexuality makes monsters all the more appealing as a temporary egress from repression. Generally speaking, medieval monsters are characterized by abnor- mality, dangerousness, and exaggeration; the logical questions which follow from these traits are: “What is the standard of normality, and by whom is it being promulgated?”

     summary: Así los dioses, mientras el guardián de la campana se lamentaba, Destrozaron el halcón de la ribera. Let me simply tackle this issue of the rewriting of Anglo-Saxon from the perspective of our time, let me examine some contemporary instances of this process; because by doing so I think we can learn something of the power of a literature and a language which many people -among them some of our colleagues at the University, alas- deem dead and forgotten, those who insist in denying Old English literature a space in the curriculum.2 My modest proposal here is then to show that this is not so, that Old English is -to a certain extent at least- still alive, and not only in the English literary tradition.

From then onwards English poetry would have a critical dimension of literary opposition to social abuse.

     summary: 3.- Steadman, op. cit., p. 41. 158 “disembodied laughter” of Troilus in the epilogue (when Troilus’s soul laughed at those who were mourning him and at the vanities of this life when compared to Eternal Life), which gives Steadman’s study its title, appears with a very ambiguous significance when interpreted in terms of the symmetrical patterns the author built within his story, of its doubleness and “Theban circularity,”1 so that we are led to ask, with David Benson, “is there not an echo here of the prince’s callow laughter towards lovers in book I?.”2 Troilus does not seem to learn anything through his experience in the whole book, so it is doubtful whether Chaucer’s sole intention was to make an exemplum of him. On the complexity and ambivalence of Troilus’ bonds, see especially Stephen Barney, “Troilus Bound,” Speculum , 47 (1972), pp. 445-58.

     summary: As someone familiar with the poem who has attempted verse translations of several parts of it, I am aware that it is extremely difficult to keep up a rhyme-scheme, couplets in this case, throughout the translation of a poem over 13,600 lines long. Spanish readers will find several points of contact with the most famous of Spanish epic poems, the Cantar de Mio Cid (1140), which recounts the feats of Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar, “El Cid,” in fighting against the Moors who had invaded Spain.

     summary: Sir Launfal, in the Breton lai, is given spiced wines and Rhenish wines by Dame Tryamour, and, of course, vintner’s son as he was, there is no lack of “vinolent” references, as we have seen in Chaucer’s works: Daun John, in the Shipman’s Tale, brings his relatives “a jubbe of Malvesye” and some red Italian wine -vernage-, and, of course, the Shipman himself is used to transporting vin de 1.- Curye on Inglysch. The drinkable “goodies” are, however, a different matter, since she is to be offered not only spiced wine in general, but more specifically: Spanish white wine and malmsey, Italian white wine, Cretan white wine, raspis, Antioch wine, honey wine, Granada wine, Greek wine, muscatel, claret, white wine from La Rochelle, Alsatian wine and simply red wine her “stomake to defie” (i.e. as a cure for indigestion -like the sop in wine!).

     summary: It is not surprising to perceive that works such as Sir Gawain, or Of Arthur and of Merlin, or The Death of King Arthur, provoke the reader’s admiration, but it is however an admiration that is inevitably tarnished by disturbing sentiments of moral disapproval. Obliquely the Gawain poet is attributing to Arthur faculties that must be examined in order to reach a lucid comprehension of the thematic nucleus of the tale: the authentic meaning of Mumming with all its corollaries.

     summary: In the Didot Perceval ravens are revealed to be Urbain’s mistress and her maidens, while in other contexts they are his mother: “If, therefore, the correspondence of Morrigan, Modron, and Morgain la Feé is established, then Owain’s (= Urbain’s) ravens in Rhonabwy’s Dream can be recognized as the helpful forms of his mother Modron and her sisters (or companions).”4 1.- Since a conflation of Badb and Macha would yield Mab, Shakespeare’s inheritance of this tradition seems a reasonable hypothesis. Examples of this sort of powerful water goddess can be adduced from many European cultures, but let us consider another one, less widely known but still Celtic.

Others used romance modes because these had come to permeate their religious imagination; it was natural for them, like the author of Ancrene Wisse with his fable of Christ the lover-knight, to express religious truths in the language of romance.

     summary: This research takes the following steps of analysis: firstly, it describes the semantics and the grammatical behaviour of verbs of prohibition in Present- day English; in the second place, it analyses the realisation of arguments and the structure of the clause with Old English verbs of prohibition; thirdly, it identifies the alternations found with verbs of prohibition; and, finally, it assesses the consistency of the set of verbs of prohibition as a verbal class in Old English. That is to say, from the perspective of argument realisation, the number and form of the compulsory complements of a verb is restricted by the meaning component of the verb in question, whereas from the perspective of class membership “verbs that fall into classes according to shared behavior would be expected to show Old English verbs of prohibition 3 shared meaning components” (Levin 1993: 5).

     summary: In the most iconic swallowing episode of the Bible, a reptile sea-monster or kētos swallows the prophet Jonah, and his three-day-long captivity within the monster’s belly was then typologically interpreted in the Gospels as a prefiguration of Christ’s own passion and death before resurrection (Mt 12:3842 and Lk 11:2932).52 Notably, the Jonah cycle is the single most widespread iconographic motif in the pre-Constantine church,53 and the sea monster that swallows the prophet is often depicted as a giant reptile.54 49 G.

Reception history of Beowulf 15 poem as their own: Denmark,51 Germany,52 England,53 and Sweden.54 At least three rock bands —one Dutch, one Finnish, and one Australian— are named “Grendel”; bullets and rifle parts, dogs and cats have received the same name or “Beowulf”; a Kick Starter drive to fund the development of a “Beowulf” board game was launched in 2014;55 license plates bear Beowulf’s name; and one can purchase “Got Beowulf?” and “#Beowulf” mugs, a Beowulf-cluster software operating system, or the services of Beowulf Mining to explore natural resources in the Nordic region.56 The appropriations seem endless.

     summary: They always take ‘ne + Verb + þæt + ne’, i.e. the main verb or verb phrase is negated as well as the content of the following þæt-clause. From my investigation focused on Old English up and early Middle English some points have been made manifest: (i) A verb with negative import shows a tendency to invite the negative particle ne in the dependent clause it takes, owing to the negative import of the governing verb; this is a kind of correlative construction based on Old English syntax; (ii) Alternative expressions like ‘Verb (with negative import) and Verb of saying + direct speech or indirect speech (with ne)’ may suggest that the construction ‘Verb (with negative import) + þæt + ne’ is not illogical but a contracted and correlative form, meaning ‘he forbade saying, “You should not do that”’ or ‘he forbade and said that I should not do that’; (iii) ‘Verb (with negative import) + to-infinitive’ was found in Old English as an alternative of ‘Verb (with negative import) + þæt-clause’ with or without ne, which means that the shift from forbid that to forbid to is a tendency rather than a historical development; (iv) The ‘Verb (with negative import)

     summary: Much medieval art shows the butcher clearly struggling to restrain or pin the pig.4 Karl Steel (2011: 181–184) notes medieval pigs were only partially domesticated; they “led quasi-feral lives for most of the year” and records describe their frequent violence, as they often killed or injured people. Medieval art frequently shows pigs being butchered by a man sitting on top of them to hold them down.

John M. Bowers’ monumental book demands from the reader a cross-disciplinary approach that exemplifies excellently well how in Tolkien studies any serious analysis requires elements from the different fields that build medieval studies as a discipline.

     summary: Only a small number of monographs and papers have put their focus on the specifically English role during the crusading period and England’s special relationship with the Saracen: amongst these are Paull’s (1969, 1972) literary studies on the Saracen in Middle English texts, Metlitzki’s (1977) work discussing the significance of Arabic material in medieval English reception, and Tyerman’s (1988) extensive compilation of historical as well as political and social aspects of the crusades for England. Since the Saracen is generally treated as the villain and complementary evil counterpart to the Christian self in Middle English texts, one could assume for 13 The CMEPV is not even exhaustive so that it would indeed have made a difference in the census in favor of Saracen-tokens, if works such as the 14th-century King of Tars, Of Arthour and of Merlin (e.g. Calkin 2004), or the late 14th-/early 15th-century romances Sir Ferumbras and The Sowdone of Babylone had been incorporated.

      flesch: 70
     summary: The apposition of Christian and pagan myth in Beowulf1 Connor Lawhorn Independent scholar The first half of Beowulf’s speech before the dragon fight (lines 2425-2471) has often been referred to as the most pagan part of the poem, possibly containing an allusion to the god Odin and his sons Hothr and Baldr. This article, however, proposes a new Christian context for this passage, identifying, in Beowulf’s description of a hanged son on the gallows, a hitherto unnoticed allusion to Christ’s passion, evinced by a verbal association between the gallows and Christ in Old English poetry, and a broader syncretism between Odin, Baldr, and Christ in Viking-Age Anglo-Scandinavian culture.

As Thomas himself indicates in the beginning of the book, the vitality of canon law in Langland’s critical and creative imagination of church and society as he sees it in Piers Plowman challenges David Aers’ reading of Piers Plowman as an anti-Constantinian poem committed to a church beyond a princely prelacy and its worldly possessions and powers (p. 24).

     summary: The approach is undoubtedly novel and brings a fresh look that discloses new perspectives with which early medieval texts can be competently assessed. The first chapter examines the concept of soil in early medieval hagiography, as illustrated in works by prominent authors such as Bede or in anonymous compilations like the Old English Martyrology.

     summary: Moreover, literary works written after the Rose cannot all be derived from the Rose when they are closely related to other vernacular works, even though these works themselves are of course connected to the Rose. It is misleading for Knox to assert, however, that traces of the Rose can be found throughout medieval English literature, or that the Rose is the fons et origo of them.

     summary: Looking at the future of German medieval studies, Albrecht Classen suggests in “The Nibelungenlied and W. P. Ker: Older Philology and the Future of Medieval Studies” that the time has come to return to “Ker’s insights and to consider them within the broader context of the Nibelungenlied” as the field has turned towards “more global perspectives, emphasizing strongly comparative approaches” (267) much like those pursued by Ker and his contemporaries. The question of what effect “[t]he arrival of medieval romance literature in the North” (270) had is pursued by Claudia Bornholdt in “The Persistence of the Heroic Ideal in Post-Heroic Age Scandinavian Romance Literature”.

     summary: Winters in the World: A Journey through the Anglo-Saxon Year completely fulfills the promise made in its introduction since, without simplifying the subject in question, it succeeds in rendering the study of the cycle of seasons in Anglo-Saxon England enjoyable by all kinds of readers. In this sense, the etymological explanations provided are suitable for the better interpretation of an entire set of medieval traditions which are deeply interrelated with the turn of seasons, rendering their presentation both informative and amusing.

     summary: As is well known, the notion of inequality was deeply ingrained in the social and economic structures of medieval society, the feudal system being the main referent in this sense. By providing a sound justification which suits medieval social codification, the editors do not choose to discriminate among the different categories, but instead to include under the umbrella term all those which interact with gender issues.
