The Cambridge Old English Reader
This reader remains the only major new reader of Old English prose and verse to
have appeared during the past forty years. The second edition is extensively revised
throughout, with the addition of a new Beginning Old English section for new¬
comers to the Old English language, aiong with a new extract from Beowulf.
The fifty-seven individual texts include established favourites such as The Battle
of
Maidon
and Wulfstan s Sermon of the Wolf as well as others not otherwise
readily available, such as an extract from
Apollonius
of Tyre.
Modern English glosses for every prose-passage and poem are provided on the
same page as the text, along with extensive notes. A succinct reference grammar is
appended, along with guides to pronunciation and to grammatical terminology.
A comprehensive glossary lists and analyses all the Old English words that occur
in the book. Headnotes to each of the six text sections, and to every individual text,
establish their literary and historical contexts, and illustrate the rich cultural variety
of Anglo-Saxon England. This second edition is an accessible and scholarly intro¬
duction to Old English.
Richard
Marsden
is Emeritus Professor of Old English at the University of
Nottingham. In addition to numerous articles on Old English literature and language
and the history of the Latin Bible, he has published The Text of the Old Testament in
Anglo-Saxon England (Cambridge,
1995)
and an edition of The Old English
Heptateuch for the Early English Text Society
(2008).
