Download or read book Reading Old English Biblical Poetry written by Janet Schrunk Ericksen and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2020-11-19 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading Old English Biblical Poetry considers the Junius 11 manuscript, the only surviving illustrated book of Old English poetry, in terms of its earliest readers and their multiple strategies of reading and making meaning. Junius 11 begins with the creation story and ends with the final vanquishing of Satan by Jesus. The manuscript is both a continuous whole and a collection with discontinuities and functionally independent pieces. The chapters of Reading Old English Biblical Poetry propose multiple models for reader engagement with the texts in this manuscript, including selective and sequential reading, reading in juxtaposition, and reading in contexts within and outside of the pages of Junius 11. The study is framed by particular attention to the materiality of the manuscript and how that might have informed its early reception, and it broadens considerations of reading beyond those of the manuscript's compiler and possible patron. As a book, Junius 11 reflects a rich and varied culture of reading that existed in and beyond houses of God in England in the tenth and eleventh centuries, and it points to readers who had enough experience to select and find wisdom, narrative pleasure, and a diversity of other things within this or any book's contents.

Download or read book Beowulf and Christianity written by Mary A. Parker and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1987 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the reasons for Christian stories and ideas in Beowulf, the Anglo-Saxon epic poem that also describes pagan religious and burial practices. By examining historical, archaeological, and linguistic sources, Mary Parker evaluates the possibilities for Christian understanding on the part of the audience and Christian teaching on the part of the poet. These inquiries lead to an informed review of the critical literature on the Christianity in Beowulf. Finally the author looks at individual speakers in the poem and words they use that reveal Christian meaning. This multi-disciplinary summary and review concludes that the Christianity in Beowulf is a reflection of the society that produced it, a heroic society in transition toward the new Christian value system.
