Aldred's interlinear gloss to the Lindisfarne Gospels (London,
British Library, MS Cotton Nero D.IV) is one of the most
substantial representatives of the Old English variety known as
late Old Northumbrian. Although it has received a great deal of
attention in the past two centuries, there are still numerous
issues which remain unresolved. The papers in this collection
approach the gloss from a variety of perspectives - language,
cultural milieu, palaeography, glossography - in order to shed
light on many of these issues, such as the authorship of the gloss,
the morphosyntax and vocabulary of the dialect(s) it represents,
its sources and relationship to the Rushworth Gospels, and Aldred's
cultural and religious affiliations. Because of its breadth of
coverage, the collection will be of interest and great value to
scholars in the fields of Anglo-Saxon studies and English
historical linguistics.
