Reseña del libro "Old English Metrical Calendar (Menologium): 12 (Anglosaxon Texts) (en Inglés)"
WINNER of the International Society of Anglo-Saxonists 2017 Publication Prize: Best EditionThe late tenth-century Old English Metrical Calendar (traditionally known as Menologium) summarises, in the characteristicheroic diction and traditional metre of Old English poetry, the major course of the Anglo-Saxon liturgical year. It sets out, in a methodical structure based on the basic temporal framework of the solar/natural year, the locations of the major feasts widely observed in late Anglo-Saxon England. Such a work could have been a practical timepiece for reading the dates of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, for which it serves as a kind of prologue in the manuscript.The clearly domestic perspective of the poem, which fits in the manuscript context, is also noteworthy, while the poem also reveals various interesting characteristics in its grammar, vocabulary and prosody.This is the firstfull modern edition of the poem, and is accompanied by a facing translation. The introduction provides an extensive discussion of matter, content, style, and context, while the commentary offers further information. The volume also includes the texts and translations of a number of analogous works.Table of ContentsIntroductionThe Old English Calendar [Menologium: Text and TranslationAppendix 1: The Prose MenologiumAppendix 2: Metrical Calendar of YorkAppendix 3: Félire AdamnáinAppendix 4: Enlaith bethaAppendix 5: List of Anglo-Saxon CalendarsAppendix 6: Immovable Feasts Marked in Anglo-Saxon CalendarsAppendix 7: Vigils in Anglo-Saxon CalendarsAppendix 8: Dates of the Solar Turning Points in Anglo-Saxon CalendarsAppendix 9: Latin and Old English Month-names in the Old English Written TraditionGlossaryBibliography
