This book illustrates some of the exciting paths of enquiry being
explored in many different fields of Anglo-Saxon studies -
archaeology, legal history, palaeography, Old English syntax and
poetic, Latin learning with its many reflexes in Old English prose
literature, and others. In all these fields it is clear that fresh
perspectives may be achieved by examining even well-known objects
and texts in the light of modern approaches and scholarship.
Several studies concentrate on aspects of early Anglo-Saxon
civilization: the settlement at Mucking, Essex; the iconography of
the famous gold coin struck in the name of Bishop Liudhard; the
early Anglo-Saxon law on adultery; and a reconstruction of an early
Anglo-Saxon copy of the Heptateuch. The usual comprehensive
bibliography of the previous year's publications in all branches of
Anglo-Saxon studies rounds off the book, with a five-year index to
volumes 16-20 (previous indexes being in volumes 5, 10 and 15).
