Old English, first published in 2009, provides a clear linguistic
introduction to English between the 5th century and the Norman
invasion in 1066. Tailored to suit the needs of individual course
modules, it assumes no prior knowledge of the subject, and presents
the basic facts in a straightforward manner, making it the ideal
beginners' text. Students are guided step-by-step through the main
characteristics and developments of English during that period,
aided by concise chapter summaries, suggestions for further
reading, and a comprehensive glossary. Each chapter is accompanied
by an engaging set of exercises and discussion questions based on
authentic Anglo-Saxon texts, encouraging students to consolidate
their learning, and providing essential self-study material. The
book is accompanied by a companion website, featuring solutions to
the exercises and useful additional resources. Providing essential
knowledge and skills for those embarking on the study of Old
English, it is set to become the leading introduction to the
subject.
