This Language, A River is an introduction to the history of English
that recognizes multiple varieties of the language in both current
and historical contexts. Developed over years of undergraduate
teaching, the book helps students to both grasp traditional
histories of English, and also to extend and complicate those
histories. Exercises throughout provide opportunities for puzzling
out concepts, committing terms and data to memory, and applying
ideas. A comprehensive glossary and up-to-date bibliographies help
to guide further study.
This edited collection of essays brings together scholars across
disciplines who consider the collaborative work of John Matthews
Manly and Edith Rickert, philologists, medievalists and early
modernists, cryptologists, and education reformers. These pioneers
crafted interdisciplinary partnerships as they modeled and
advocated for cooperative alliances at every level of their work
and in all their academic relationships. Their extensive network of
intellectual partnerships made possible groundbreaking projects,
from the eight-volume Text of the Canterbury Tales (1940) to the
deciphering of the Waberski Cipher, yet, except for their Chaucer
work, their many other accomplishments have received little
attention. Collaborative Humanities Research and Pedagogy not only
surveys the rich range of their work but also emphasizes the
transformative intellectual and pedagogical benefits of
collaboration.
