Size:155 x 245 mm Illustrations:4 b/w, 1 tables b/w.Language(s):Latin, English, Old English . ISBN 9782503612485.‎ ‎Summary This is an edition of a key eighth century glossary, traditionally called "Werden A" after the abbey in Germany where its unique manuscript was probably written about 810, incorporating English materials of earlier date, It is one of an important set of early English glossaries usually associated with the school of Canterbury under Archbishop Theodore in the last quarter of the seventh century; this was the first important center of learning in England after the conversion to Christianity from ca. 600 and its alumni and scholarship spread out not only over England in the subsequent century but to north-east France and Germany in the so-called "Anglo-Saxon Mission" with the aim of bringing Christianity to semi-pagan lands. Such glossaries played a big part in these campaigns and strongly influenced Old High German glossaries and literature for several centuries more. Werden A shows ample signs of its career on the continent with many entries that must have originated in Frisia, France, Saxony and the Rhineland. Moreover, Werden A presents many difficult editorial challenges: it is very fragmentary, preserved as several mutilated and dispersed parts, most of which were destroyed in World War II and are only preserved in poor nineteenth century transcripts, and beyond that the text is often obscure and corrupt. This edition undertakes to reconstruct the codicology and contents of the original book before its dispersal, retrieval of the remaining text as originally written, establishment of the sources of the various items, and the deciphering and interpretation of individual entries that are often highly original and unparalleled in other glossaries.

ISBN 9781588397959.‎ ‎In 1874, eighteen-year-old American artist John Singer Sargent went to Paris to become a painter. Ten years later, he would become an art-world sensation when he sparked controversy with his scandalous portrait Madame X at the 1884 Salon. Sargent and Paris focuses on this decisive early decade in the artist?s career, when he first achieved recognition for ambitious portraits and bold canvases that pushed the boundaries of convention. Eight incisive essays by the world's foremost Sargent scholars explore his life in Paris?then the epicenter of the cultural world?and the cosmopolitan circle of artists, writers, and cultivated patrons that nurtured his career and helped forge his artistic identity. Authors highlight the painter's connections to giants of the Parisian art scene as well as the influential patrons who were key to Sargent?s progression as an artist. Presented alongside lavish images of more than a hundred paintings and works on paper?brought together from public and private collections throughout the United States and Europe?this publication offers an intimate look at the roots of Sargent's signature, breathtaking style and his indelible experiences as a young artist in the French capital.

Herdrich is Alice Pratt Brown Curator of American Painting and Drawing, The American Wing, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.‎ Bookseller reference : 68612	Livre Rare Book ERIK TONEN BOOKS Antwerpen Belgium Bélgica Bélgica Belgique [Books from ERIK TONEN BOOKS] € 45,00 Buy

‎Arthur F. Marotti (ed)‎ ‎Persistence of Catholicism. Literature, Nationhood, and Religion in Early Modern England‎ ‎, Brepols, 2026 Hardback, Pages: 242, Size:152 x 229 mm, Languages: English. ISBN 9780888442437.‎ ‎Summary This volume collects previously published studies, now thoroughly updated and revised, with the aim of exploring the religious and political complexities of early modern English Catholicism from the mid-sixteenth through the late seventeenth centuries. Together, these essays analyze the residual presence of Catholic culture within the larger narrative of English history, using the work of such writers as William Shakespeare, John Donne, and Dame Gertrude More, as well as a range of non-literary evidence, to interpret the varieties of religious experience and the multiple ways in which they related to contemporary audiences and readers. Including the "seigneurial" Catholicism of the upper classes, the popular survival of traditional religious practices, and the different colonial solutions to the problem of religious toleration, this account opposes the oversimplified "Whig" interpretation of English history with the complex forces of a changing political landscape. Catholic culture had a remarkable persistence in the period and the lived experience of English Catholics varied widely. In its many incarnations, Catholicism remained an important cultural and demographic presence troubling the narrative of English history. Despite the control the government sought to exercise over religious belief, individual Catholics, who negotiated various forms of social functioning, survived beyond this period to emerge finally as a significant, and tolerated, minority within English society.

‎Daniel Thomas‎ ‎Old English Poet as Reader‎ ‎, Brepols, 2026 Hardback, Pages: 312, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9782503612201.‎ ‎Summary Little is known about the original audiences of Old English poetry. The clearest evidence we possess for the reception of these verse texts is provided by the poets themselves, who must have been amongst the most dedicated and learned consumers of the poetic corpus to which they contributed. Thinking about how these poets read and responded to the work of their fellow practitioners can help us to recover something of the literary attitudes and expectations that governed both the production and reception of Old English poetry. The Old English Poet as Reader proposes a new approach to the study of Old English poetry which simultaneously recognizes the traditional and formulaic aspects of Old English poetry while also accepting that poets working within this tradition engaged in direct and sophisticated ways with individual vernacular poetic models. The extent to which this can be demonstrated from the surviving and inevitably partial record of Old English verse suggests that such strategies constituted a key feature of the vernacular tradition for both poets and audiences. Scholars have long been accustomed to thinking about Old English poets as engaged readers of their Latin textual sources. This volume argues that we must now recognize them as equally sophisticated and literary readers of their vernacular poetic sources as well. TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1.

‎Edel Porter, Javier E. D az-Vera (eds)‎ ‎Cultural Models for Emotions in the North Atlantic Vernaculars, 700-1400‎ ‎, Brepols, 2025 Hardback, Pages: 337, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 col., 3 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503610443.‎ ‎Summary While the medieval regions that form modern-day Britain, Ireland, Iceland, and the Scandinavian states were, very much like today, home to diverse ethnic and linguistic groups, it is evident that the peoples who inhabited the north-western Atlantic seaboard at this time were nonetheless connected by key cultural, environmental, historical, and ideological experiences that set them apart from other regions of Europe. This volume is the first to focus specifically on these cultural and linguistic connections from the perspective of the history of emotions. The contributions collected here examine cultural encounters among medieval North Atlantic peoples with regard to the gradual development of shared emotional models and the emergence of early cross-cultural emotional communities in this region. The chapters also explore how the folk psychologies illustrated in the oldest European vernacular writing traditions (Irish, English, and Scandinavian) bear witness to cultural models for emotions that first took shape in pre-Christian times.

‎Thomas N. Hall, Winfried Rudolf (eds)‎ ‎Sermons, Saints, and Sources. Studies in the Homiletic and Hagiographic Literature of Early Medieval England‎ ‎, Brepols, 2025 Hardback, Pages: 444, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 b/w, 8 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503610542.‎ ‎Summary The corpus of sermons and saints' lives from early medieval England, in English and Latin, is the largest and most varied of its kind from a contemporary European perspective. In recent years this extraordinary body of literature has attracted increasing attention, as witnessed by an efflorescence of new editions, translations, commentaries, essay collections, dissertations, and amply funded research projects such as the Electronic Corpus of Anonymous Old English Homilies (ECHOE) project based at the University of G ttingen. The present collection of thirteen essays grew out of a 2022 conference sponsored by the ECHOE project on Old English anonymous homilies and saints' lives and their sources and reflects the best of current scholarship on early medieval homiletic and hagiographic literature from England. This literature is central to an understanding of the spiritual imagination and social practices of non- lite audiences. Together, they introduce new discoveries, identify new sources, edit new texts, make new claims about authors, revisers, and textual relationships, revise previous arguments about aspects of literary history, and provide new interpretations of Old English and Latin sermons and saints' lives. These studies show vividly how European learning influenced the liturgical practices and peripheral education of early medieval England. Contributors include Helen Appleton, Aidan Conti, Claudia Di Sciacca, R. D. Fulk, Thomas N. Hall, Christopher A. Jones, Leslie Lockett, Rosalind Love, Hugh Magennis, Stephen Pelle, Jane Roberts, Winfried Rudolf, and Charles D. Wright. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction - THOMAS N.

‎Chlo Houston, Sophie Lemercier-Goddard, Ladan Niayesh (eds)‎ ‎Writing Distant Travels and Linguistic Otherness in Early Modern England (c. 1550-1660)‎ ‎, Brepols, 2025 Hardback, Pages: 280, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:4 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503599632.‎ ‎Summary As Britain's global interests expanded from the mid-sixteenth century, geographic mobility encouraged many forms of multilingual practices in English writings. Translations, lexical borrowings, and records of exchanges between travellers and far-off lands and peoples diversely registered, communicated, engaged and politicised encounters with alterity. Meanwhile, earlier continental European translations also influenced and complicated the reception of distant otherness, entailing questions of linguistic hybridity or pluralism. This volume explores some of the practices and strategies underpinning polyglot encounters in travel accounts produced, translated, or read in England, as well as in artistic and educational materials inflected by those travels. Drawing on linguistic, lexicographic, literary, and historical methodologies, the twelve chapters in this volume collectively look into the contexts and significances of textual contact zones. Particular attention is paid to uses of multilingualism in processes of identity construction, defining and promoting national or imperial agendas, appropriating and assimilating foreign linguistic capital, or meeting resistance and limits from linguistic and cultural otherness refusing to lend itself to a subjected or go-between status. Treating of indigenous languages, newly anglicized words, and new artistic and instructional materials, the volume makes the case for the vibrancy and influence of early modern English engagements with polyglossia and the need for multiple scales of approach to - and interdisciplinary perspectives on - the subject.

‎Jennifer Clement‎ ‎Rhetoric, Persuasion, and Teaching the Emotions in the Early Modern English Sermon, 1600-1642‎ ‎, Brepols, 2025 Hardback, Pages: 203, Size:156 x 234 mm, Languages: English. ISBN 9782503614328.‎ ‎Summary The early seventeenth-century English sermon was the bestselling print genre of its time, and church preaching was more widely attended than any play. Jennifer Clement argues here that a major aim of these sermons was to teach people how to feel the right emotions - or, as preachers would have said at the time, the passions or affections - to lead a good Christian life. In the process, preachers took a primarily rhetorical approach to the emotions; that is, they used their sermons to define emotions and to encourage their listeners and readers actively to cultivate and shape their emotions in line with Scripture. This study offers an overview of five key emotions - love, fear, anger, grief, and joy - in the sermons of key preachers such as John Donne, Richard Sibbes, Joseph Hall, Launcelot Andrewes, and others. It shows how these preachers engaged with contemporary treatises on the emotions as well as treatises on preaching to highlight the importance of the rhetorical, as opposed to the humoral, approach to understanding the emotions in a religious context. In addition, Clement reads sermons next to early seventeenth-century religious poetry by writers such as Donne, George Herbert, Amelia Lanyer, and Henry Vaughan to show how the emotional concerns of the sermons also appear in the poetry, reverberating beyond the pulpit. Bringing together rhetorical theory, sermon studies, and the history of the emotions, Clement shows how the early seventeenth-century English sermon needs to inform our thinking about literature and its engagement with emotion in this period.

ISBN 9782503607702.‎ ‎Summary The Vikings had a major and lasting impact on the English language. This volume is a unique companion to the study of Anglo-Scandinavian language contact, providing expert discussions of its contexts, backgrounds, and the considerable afterlife of its effects through the Middle Ages and down to the present day. It contains thirteen new articles by leading specialists in the fields of early medieval languages, literature, and history, specially commissioned in order to explore as wide a range as possible of the historical and cultural contexts for Anglo-Scandinavian encounters in the Viking Age and the evidence for them. These essays analyse in detail the Old Norse influence on English, offering studies of words and their meanings in their textual and literary contexts, and including lexicography, dialectology, and syntactic research; they explore findings from archaeology, inscriptions, and place-names; and they situate Anglo-Scandinavian contacts in the larger multilingual, multicultural contexts of the North Sea and Irish Sea worlds.
