English Historical Metrics (Hardcover, New)

This volume identifies historical metrics as an important
discipline within English studies and raises significant questions
about the composition and transmission of early English verse. The
chronological range of the book covers the Old English to the
pre-Renaissance periods, while its theoretical range is
multidisciplinary. The keynote introduction by Thomas Cable
identifies major current issues within the field. The work
concludes with an extensive and up-to-date bibliography which
includes linguistics, philological and text-critical work. The
distinguished team of contributors includes: Russom, McCully, and
Obst (focusing on Old English, with a conspectus by Stockwell);
Minkova (on the Ormulum and early Middle English); Borroff,
Matonis, and Osberg (Middle English verse); Bunt and Duggan
(editing and Middle English metrics); and Duffell and Youmans (the
origin and structure of the Chaucerian long line).
