Abstract

Description from book jacket: "Lively exchanges, both political and cultural, with Europe and Scandinavia put speakers of the Old English language in contact with Latin and early forms of Danish and Norwegian. Verbal Encounters is a collection of essays on these contracts and exchanges, written in honour of Roberta Frank, former University Professor of Medieval Studies at the University of Toronto. The essays focus on the fields of Old English, medieval Latin, and Old Norwegian and Icelandic."
