Articles liés à Word Hoard: An Introduction to Old English Vocabulary
Synopsis
Designed for introductory courses in Old English, Word-Hoard offers a vocabulary of some 2000 words drawn from the poems that beginning students normally read. Exploiting the natural curiosity we feel about our own language, Stephen Barney draws etymological connections, provides mnemonic aids, and introduces the student to cultural and literary concepts as well as words. This second edition of his valuable book has been completely reset in a format that improves its clarity and conciseness.
Reviews of the earlier edition:
?An excellent piece of work. . . . It makes learning the basic vocabulary of Old English, especially of the poetry, an adventure in ideas, adding in short compass the fascination of etymology and even semantics to the otherwise laborious and at first crude efforts to understand the texts.”?John C. Pope
?It obviously reflects enthusiasm and a great deal of hard work, and it will serve very well the students for whom it is intended.”?Thomas D. Hill, Speculum
?There is nothing quite like it in the literature. . . . Such a book would have been enthusiastically greeted years ago. It is doubly welcome today.”?Choice
Stephen A. Barney is professor of English at the University of California at Irvine.
