OverviewThis collection of twenty-nine papers, written by an international line up of contributors, are in honour of E. G. Stanley. Applying Stanley's approach of 'wise scepticism' as a critical stance, the contributors illustrate the advantages of following John Donne's axiom 'doubt wisely'. In doing so they provide new analyses of such difficult but rewarding fields as: Old English metre and syntax Beowulf the origins and development of standard English the definitions of Old English words and connotations the styles and themes of Old English poems Full Product DetailsAuthor: M.
