内容説明

This collection provides a new, authoritative and challenging study of the life and works of AElfric of Eynsham, the most important vernacular religious writer in the history of Anglo-Saxon England. The contributors include almost all of the key AElfric scholars working today and some important newer voices. Each of the chapters is a cutting-edge piece of work which addresses one aspect of AElfric's works or career. The chapters are organised topically, rather than by chronology, genre or biography, and between them cover the entire AElfrician corpus and the major contextual issues; consideration of AElfric's Latin writings is carefully integrated with that of his Old English works. AElfric studies are currently a central element of Anglo-Saxon studies, but while to date there has been a great deal of detailed work on some aspects of AElfric, this collection provides the first overview. Contributors: Hugh Magennis, Joyce Hill, Christopher A. Jones, Mechthild Gretsch, M. R. Godden, Catherine Cubitt, Thomas N. Hall, Robert K. Upchurch, Mary Swan, Clare A. Lees, Gabriella Corona, Kathleen Davis, Jonathan Wilcox, Aaron J Kleist and Elaine Treharne.
