"An up-to-date linguistic and critical approach distinguishes this text, which introduces students to written English of the seventh through eleventh centuries. The first part provides a coordinated treatment of the grammar -- phonology, morphology, syntax, and lexicon. The second part offers a substantial selection of carefully edited and annotated texts from Old English literature together with a comprehensive glossary, the entries for which are conveniently keyed to the texts and cross-referenced to variant forms of head-words." -- From publisher description.
