Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an elementary introduction to Early West Saxon prose and enables readers to gain a first-hand understanding of the language and style of King Alfred the Great. King Alfred played a significant role in the history of the English language. He is best known for his translation of important works into the vernacular, which helped to standardize Old English. The author's emphasis on context and historical relevance will improve the readers' retention of forms and constructions. The book includes selections for reading, related to the history and literature of King Alfred's day, and accounts for diverse dialects of Old English, such as Northumbrian, Mercian, West Saxon, and Kentish, allowing the reader to observe similarities and differences. This allows readers to appreciate Old English's continuity with its successor, Middle English, as well as its linguistic ties to other Germanic tongues. The author also provides a solid foundation for further study of Old English grammar, historical English grammar, and the principles of English etymology. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331823162_0
