{"product_id":"secular-learning-in-anglo-saxon-england-9789042035461","title":"Secular Learning in Anglo-Saxon England","description":"The fruits of Anglo-Saxon learning continue to captivate Anglo-Saxonists and scholars of natural science and medicine, witness recent publications such as Martin Blake’s edition of Ælfric's \u003ci\u003eDe temporibus anni\u003c\/i\u003e (2009), and the proceedings of the \u003ci\u003eStorehouses of Wholesome Learning\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eLeornungcræft\u003c\/i\u003e projects. In 1992, Stephanie Hollis and Michael Wright took stock of secular learning in the vernacular, in their monumental annotated bibliography \u003ci\u003eOld English Prose of Secular Learning\u003c\/i\u003e. The present volume surveys and evaluates advances in the study of Anglo-Saxon secular learning from the past two decades. It also consolidates an ongoing interest in scholarship by Anglo-Saxons by presenting nine original essays that focus on the disciplines of law, encyclopaedic notes, computus, medicine, charms, and prognostication, with a focus on learning in the vernacular, or the relationship between Latin and the vernacular. This volume is of interest for Anglo-Saxonists who work with vernacular sources of learning, and for historians of law, natural science, medicine, divination and magic.","brand":"Sándor Chardonnens","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48271184756987,"sku":"9789042035461","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_e4b6b9ea-6281-46ff-97e5-0ee391ac1384.jpg?v=1770979589","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/secular-learning-in-anglo-saxon-england-9789042035461","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
