Including seventeen essays by distinguished scholars, this new edition provides a discussion of the literature of the period 600 to 1066 in the context of how Anglo-Saxon society functioned. New chapters cover topics including preaching and teaching, Beowulf and literacy, and a further five chapters have been revised and updated, including those on the Old English language, perceptions of eternity and Anglo-Saxon learning. An additional concluding chapter on Old English after 1066 offers an overview of the study and cultural influences of Old English literature to the present day. Finally, the further reading list has been overhauled to incorporate the most up-to-date scholarship in the field and the latest electronic resources for students. 410 0$aCambridge companions to literature. 606 $aEnglish literature$yOld English, ca. 450-1100$xHistory and criticism$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 607 $aGreat Britain$xHistory$yAnglo-Saxon period, 449-1066$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 607 $aEngland$xCivilization$yTo 1066$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 615 0$aEnglish literature$xHistory and criticism 676 $a829/.09 702 $aGodden$b Malcolm 702 $aLapidge$b Michael 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996204516203316 996 $aCambridge companion to Old English literature$9182836 997 $aUNISA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
