Description:
This little book, originally delivered as a lecture, forms an introduction to Aelfric of Eynsham, described by the author as "the first, and for a long time the only, master of prose written in English". Gneuss discusses Aelfric's works and their influence in the context of the turbulent late tenth and early eleventh centuries.
