The forty-third volume of Anglo-Saxon England contains three
contributions on Latin learning in the early part of the period,
two focusing on texts being studied at Canterbury, and a third
discussing the recording of Cuthbert's cult at Lindisfarne. Old
English poetry is well represented by three contributions which
exemplify new approaches towards poetic diction and its sources,
and reinterpret Cynewulf's use of runes. Old English prose
meanwhile receives further attention through a reassessment of its
intended audience, and in an analysis of Andreas. There is also a
discussion of an unusual prayer first attested in the Leofric
Missal. The theme of kingship is addressed in an article on
different representations of King Cnut in Old English, Latin and
Old Norse texts, and in an extended review of demonstrably or
arguably 'royal' books in the Anglo-Saxon period. Each article is
preceded by a short abstract.
