Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the rhymes and phonology of a Middle Scots romance called Clariodus, a lesser-known work from the early 16th century. The author meticulously examines the text to determine the pronunciation of the author, comparing pronunciations to works of similar age and considering the evolution of these sounds over time from Old English and Old Norse to the Early Modern period. By placing Clariodus within its historical and literary context, the book considers whether it aligns more closely with the literary pronunciations of its time or instead reflects the spoken language of the author. This book will be of interest to linguists and literary scholars alike, as it provides new insights into the development of the Scots language and offers a fascinating glimpse into the nuances of a less widely read but nonetheless significant work. 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 9781331902805_0
