An English–Anglo-Saxon Vocabulary

Compiled by the Rev. Walter Skeat, MA

“Walter Skeat printed his English–Anglo-Saxon Vocabulary for his friends and students a year after his election to the Elrington and Bosworth Chair. It does not appear in his own bibliographies of his writings, presumably as it was not commercially available…For ‘scanty and imperfect’ though Skeat himself described it, the list, like so much of what he wrote, retains its usefulness. It is an aid to the novice, a prompt to the busy scholar, and an invitation to explore the most up-to-date dictionaries.” - From the introductory note

Liturgical Influence on Punctuation on Late Old English and Early Middle English Manuscripts

By Peter Clemoes

Originally printed as Occasional Papers: Number 1 for the Department of Anglo-Saxon, Cambridge: 1952

“...all education was under monastic control before the rise of Universities. Liturgical practice affected any kind of writing intended to be read aloud; and reading aloud was the normal practice both in public and in private. It was an association of profound significance for English literature. Yet less is known about the liturgy’s influence on English verse and prose than about its importance in the history of the drama and lyric. I should like to offer a few remarks intended to serve as an introduction to the study of liturgical punctuation and its influence on the writing of English.” - From the introductory text
