'This scholarly, thorough treatment of imagery offers new insights into Old English poetic contemplation of human experience.' -- M.B. Busbee Choice Magazine vol 54:05:2017


"‘This scholarly, thorough treatment of imagery offers new insights into Old English poetic contemplation of human experience.’ -- M.B. Busbee * Choice Magazine vol 54:05:2017 * ‘This study of binding, unbinding, and weaving terminology is stimulating in the course of its many surprises… There is much to recommend in this latest addition to the Toronto Anglo-Saxon Series.’ -- John M. Hill * Mediaevistik vol 29:2016 * ‘Weaving words will be a catalyst for future research in many different areas. It will be a valuable reading for anyone interested in gaining new insights from early literature.’ -- Emily Thornbury * Speculum vol 93:02:2018 * ""In using poetic style to interrogate the themes of weaving and binding in Old English literature, Megan Cavell’s book Weaving Words and Binding Bodies relates in a limited way to recent work on textiles while primarily concerning itself with a more traditional, philological approach to literary scholarship."" -- Tiffany Beechy, University of Colorado Boulder * University of Toronto Quarterly, vol 87 3, Summer 2018 *"
