Description:

This edition presents several Old English texts from an Oxford manuscript. Unique to the manuscript, the works have not been edited since 1909 (when only a text and translation were supplied). Four of the texts are by the important late tenth-century writer AElfric, the other three are anonymous. The edition offers detailed information about the manuscript, its language, and the background, sources, and analogues of the individual works.
