Quidditas 34 (2013) 29 Holy Places & Imagined Hellscapes: Qualifying Comments on Loca Sancta Sermon Studies—Christian Conversion in Northern Europe & Scandinavia, c. 500-1300 Todd P. Upton Denver, Colorado The paper uses methods from medieval sermon studies to argue that an insularity in “monastic consciousness” can be traced to earlier centuries than the more generally discussed (and better documented) scholastic environments of 13th century monastic and cathedral schools. It assesses how a monastic discourse reliant on Biblical typologies informed the Christian conversion of northern Germanic and Scandinavian peoples (c. 500-1300, including the British Isles and Iceland). Moments of encounter between Christian missionaries and pagan cultures helped delineate this discourse, most apparent in extant records that reveal Christian and Norse perceptions of geography, holy places, deity worship, and eschatological expectations.

  • J~M. in It (Kuhn 1980:5-6)
    Old English macian, Its Origin and Dissemination Sherman M. Kuhn University of Michigan Some years ago I published a study of the overlapping senses of two Middle English verbs, don and ~J~M. In it (Kuhn 1980:5-6), I observed that, whereas Old English dix was a common verb found in all known dialects of OE,’ maciax and 9amaciaa were rare--hardly to be found outside the West Saxon dialect and totally absent from OE before King Alfred’s time. I mentioned the five instances of the rare verbs in the works of Alfred and the single specimen of 9amaciaa in Caaasi.r B, a poem translated from Old Saxon, probably in the latter half of the ninth century, although it appears in a MS of about the year 1000. I suggested that OE 9a) macias had been borrowed f rom Old Saxon and was even tempted to speculate that John the Old Saxon, one of the king’s mass- priests, was Alf red’s immediate source for the words. I characterized both as WS because, from Alfred’s time to the end of the OE period, all examples that I had been able to find appeared in WS or mixed-WS texts. Since my principal concern in 19742 was the behavior of the ME verbs, I had no occasion to elaborate on the earlier history of md~an at that time. I planned, however, to present the OE and OS evidence in a separate article. I had also begun to suspect that the ultimate source of the word would be found, not in OS, but in Old High German, and I needed time to make some- thing more than a cursory examination of the OHG evidence.

  • The Corpus of Prose Saints' Lives and Hagiographic Pieces in Old English and Its Manuscript Distribution*
    The Corpus of Prose Saints' Lives and Hagiographic Pieces in Old English and its Manuscript Distribution* Alex Nicholls University of London THE MANUSCRIPT DISTRIBUTION With the corpus of Old English hagiographic prose texts now defined,95 the manuscript distribution can be investigated. The manu­ scripts are ordered in terms of the number of saints' lives they con­ tain and then by Ker number. Thus the primarily hagiographic collec­ tions in Old English are listed first, with miscellanies and fragments coming later. Witnesses of mainly fElfrician lives are presented first and subdivided into those which are primary witnesses showing the distribution of the Lives of Saints set and those representing the Catholic Homilies. So that the range of texts within a collection can be quickly assessed, the manuscript contents are shown in the order in which they appear in editions, rather than in each collection. Should the manuscript order of contents be in any way significant for this analy­ sis, this is indicated. fElfrician texts are placed first in each manu­ script breakdown and then the anonymous lives on a new line, after a colon. again to make the balance of a collection immediately clear. Damaged or fragmentary manuscripts are li sted by manuscript refer­ ence, cited in single quotation marks and descriptions of the original contents of such manuscripts are quoted. The titles of texts which are completely lost are recorded in angle brackets « ». Only St Margaret 2 no longer exists in any manuscript witnesses. When only the passio of a life is preserved and its pericope exposition omitted (although it may be preserved elsewhere), such a text is marked with an asterix.96 52 Alex Nicholls MAINLY AELFRICIAN COLLECTIONS The primary witnesses of the Lives of Saints London, British Library, Cotton Julius E.

  • Elfric's Corpus: a Conspectus
    /Elfric's Corpus: A Conspectus Aaron J Kleist It should come as no surprise that the canon of ^Elfric of Eynsham is complex. One of the most prolific men of Anglo-Saxon England, known for both his erudition and his ability to instruct others, vElfric wrote for a host of audiences—bishops and children, nuns and nobles, monks, secular priests, common laymen—in a variety of different genres over a period of some twenty years. The striking range and number of copies of his work, furthermore, attest to his ongoing importance for the centuries that followed. While the outline of ^Elfric's corpus was established by Peter Clemoes' seminal "Chronology of ^Elfric's Works," with further tides being provided in John Pope's introduction to the Homilies ofJElfric, a number of points remain far from clear. On the one hand, there are the texts themselves: as both yElfric and his successors revised, augmented, and adapted his material, the textual history and interrelationship of his works is not straightforward. On the other hand, there is the dizzying array of scholarly editions: some lingering from the nineteenth century, some completed since Pope's study, a number remaining in unpublished dissertations, and others proposed but still in process. As many of these fail to account for all the extant manuscripts, however, gaps nonetheless remain. While such information may be gleaned from the recesses of numerous introductions and appendices, this survey is intended to serve as a summary reference to ^Elfric's writings and the major editions thereof, revealing in the process what work remains to be done.

  • Völuspá and the Feast of Easter
    John McKinnell Völuspá and the Feast of Easter t is generally agreed that Völuspá has been infl uenced by Christian ideas to some extent, but the nature of that infl uence has been debated. Of course it is true, as Daniel Sävborg has pointed out ( 2003, 131), that all the Old Norse I poetry that survives comes from a time when Christianity was already to some extent infl uential in northern Europe. But there is a difference between the adop- tion of commonplace Christian expressions (such as calling Óðinn Alföðr ‘Father of all’, cf. Latin Pater omnium) or general ideas (e.g. that some beings will be resur- rected after Ragnarök) on the one hand, and on the other the suggestion that spe- cifi c Christian texts have been used as source material for Völuspá.1 This paper will address only the latter type of infl uence, and will consider what criteria should be used in evaluating whether any particular claimed source is probable or not.
