Samenvatting | Commonly referred to as "The Exeter Book", this is the first complete edition of this anthology of Anglo-Saxon poetry to appear since 1936, and the only edition produced this century based upon a detailed study of the manuscript. It includes an analysis of over 400 alterations and corrections, which could lead to a major reconsideration of many of the accepted theories concerning scribal activity and manuscript production and dissemination in Anglo-Saxon England. The texts are edited in a version which foregrounds the state of the Anglo-Saxon language in the 10th century, rather than masking this important linguistic data through the use of normalized forms. |
