Contributions to the forty-sixth volume of Anglo-Saxon England
focus on aspects of Anglo-Saxon culture and history across a period
from the seventh to the eleventh century. The study of a fragment
of a tenth-century sacramentary offers new evidence for the role of
music in Anglo-Saxon England, while consideration of
charter-evidence in both Latin and Old English from Worcester c.870
to 992 sheds fresh light on institutional interaction between the
two main languages of Anglo-Saxon England. Two contributions
consider Beowulf and its immediate manuscript-context, the first
focusing on the spellings of the second scribe, and the next on the
later history of the manuscript into the sixteenth century,
facilitating its survival to this day. Finally, a detailed study of
English landed society before and after the Norman Conquest has
resulted in new perspectives on landed wealth in England in 1066
and 1086. Each article is preceded by a short abstract.
