Habemus Corpora
This paper demonstrates the potential of new methodologies for using existing corpora of medieval English to better contextualise linguistic variants, a major task of philology and a key underpinning of our ability to answer major literary-historical questions, such as when, where and to what purpose medieval texts and manuscripts were produced. The primary focus of the article is the assistance these methods can offer in dating the composition o…
The Twelfth-Century Annotations to the Old English Hexateuch
Orderic and English
Orderic Vitalis
Reversing Babel
According to Bruce O’Brien’s new monograph on translators and translation, an intrepid visitor to London around 1150 might have heard as many as fifteen languages: English predominantly, but also French, German, Flemish, Danish, Genoese, Spanish, Breton, Welsh, Irish, Scottish Gaelic, Hebrew, Arabic and Greek. His book claims to cover fourteen languages; the new collection of essays edited by Elizabeth M. Tyler examines nearly as many. As the exa…
Rewriting English Literary History 1042–1215

In particular, the article identifies three key aspects of post‐Conquest literary culture which have been neg…
The Autograph Hand of John Lydgate and a Manuscript from Bury St. Edmunds Abbey
The prolific English poet John Lydgate (c.1371–1449) has been known as the “monk of Bury” since the early fifteenth century. Both his popularity and perceptions of his literary merit have fluctuated wildly since his zenith as the famous laureate of Henry V, Henry VI and Duke Humphrey, but readers have been constant in their association of Lydgate with the Benedictine abbey from which the epithet derives. However, there has been remarkably little …
Social support in the healthcare setting
The participation of volunteers in the National Health Service (NHS) has been actively promoted during recent years, particularly within community and primary healthcare services (National Health Service 1996, 1998). As a consequence, volunteers currently make a significant contribution to health and social care within the UK. Concerning this contribution, the literature often portrays the volunteers' role as one of providing social support. In t…
