Modern day scholars no longer have recourse to the living language and culture of the Anglo-Saxons, and as a result must turn to their 'wordhords' - the literary, historical, and cultural artefacts that have survived in various degrees of intactness - to learn about life in Anglo-Saxon England. This collection of essays, gathered to honour the memory of the noted Anglo-Saxonist Edward B. Irving, Jr., brings together an international group of leading scholars who take the measure of Anglo-Saxon literary, textual, and lexical studies in the present moment. Ranging from philological and structural studies to ones that explicitly engage a variety of contemporary theoretical issues, they reflect the rich diversity of approaches to be found among Anglo-Saxonists. Subjects addressed include comparative work on Old English and Latin, and on Old English, ancient Greek, and South Slavic, notions of authorship and textual integrity, techniques of editing, heroic poetry, religious verse, lexicography, oral tradition, and material textuality. Offering a fresh reading of some popular pieces and inviting attention to some less-familiar texts, these previously unpublished essays illustrate the latest state of particular techniques for literary / critical analysis, textual recovery, and lexical studies. 606 $aEnglish philology$yOld English, ca. 450-1100 606 $aEnglish literature$yOld English, ca. 450-1100$xHistory and criticism 606 $aEnglish literature$yOld English, ca. 450-1100$xCriticism, Textual 608 $aFestschriften. 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc. 608 $aFestschriften. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aEnglish philology 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aEnglish literature$xCriticism, Textual. 676 $a829.09 702 $aAmodio$b Mark 702 $aO'Brien O'Keeffe$b Katherine$f1948- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910819920703321 996 $aUnlocking the wordhord$94029254 997 $aUNINA
