Student-Centered, Interactive Teaching of the Anglo-Saxon Cult of the Cross Abstract Although most Anglo-Saxonists deal with Old English texts and contexts as a matter of course in our research agendas, many of us teach relatively few specialized courses focused on our areas of expertise to highly-trained students; thus, many Old English texts and objects which are commonplace in our research lives can seem arcane and esoteric to a great many of our students. This article proposes to confront this gap, to suggest some ways of teaching a few potentially obscure texts and artifacts to undergrads, to offer some guidance about uses of technology in this endeavor, and to help fellow teachers of undergraduate Old English to develop ways to impart some transferable skills and modes of critical thinking to unsuspecting students. -

The abstract is typically a short summary of the contents of the document.] 2 LEDGE_NET POETRY:ANGLO SAXON LEDGE_NET_POETRY_ANGLO SAXON AGE Anglo Saxon Age: The Anglo-Saxons were a cultural group who inhabited England from the 5th century. They comprised people from Germanic tribes who migrated to the island from continental Europe, their descendants, and indigenous British groups who adopted many aspects of Anglo-Saxon culture and language. The Anglo-Saxons established the Kingdom of England, and the modern English language owes almost half of its words – including the most common words of everyday speech – to their language. Historically, the Anglo-Saxon period denotes the period in Britain between about 450 and 1066, after their initial settlement and up until the Norman conquest. The early Anglo-Saxon period includes the creation of an English nation, with many of the aspects that survive today, including regional government of shires and hundreds. During this period, Christianity was established and there was a flowering of literature and language. Charters and law were also established. The term Anglo-Saxon is popularly used for the language that was spoken and written by the Anglo-Saxons in England and eastern Scotland between at least the mid-5th century and the mid-12th century. In scholarly use, it is more commonly called Old English. Language: Old English (Ænglisc, Anglisc, Englisc) or Anglo-Saxon is the early form of the English language that was spoken and written by the Anglo-Saxons and their descendants in parts of what are now England and southern and eastern Scotland between at least the mid-5th century and the mid-12th century. -

A SYSTEMS STUDY of the CHRISTIAN and GERMANIC INTERRELATIONSHIPS in --THE DREAM --OF --THE ROOD Major Field: English Biograph Ica 1
A SYSTEMS STUDY OF THE CHRISTIAN AND GERMANIC INTERRELATIONSHIPS IN THE DREAM OF THE ROOD By 'MILTON EDWARD FORD // Bachelor of Arts O~lahoma Baptist University Shawnee, Oklahoma 1963 Bachelor of Divinity Southern Baptist Theological Seminary Louisville, Kentucky 1966 Master of Arts University of Missouri at Kansas City Kansas City, Missouri 1967 Submitted· to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Ok4lhoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for :the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY July, 197 2 © 1973 MILTON EDWARD FORD ALL RIGHTS RESERVED A SYSTEMS STUDY OF THE CHRISTIAN AND GERMANIC INTERRELATIONSHIPS IN THE DREAM OF THE ROOD Thesis Approved: Dean of the Graduate College OKLAHOMA STATE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY AUG l O 1973 PREFACE This study is an outgrowth of my interest in Christianity, Old English literature, and an integrated, synthetic approach to scholarship. Here, I have used the basic concepts of general systems theory, the ab- stract systems concepts which underlie any systems approach, to develop a methodology for the study of literature particularly suited to the investigation of literary interrelationships at any level. The appli- cation here is to the interrelationship of the Christian and the Germanic elements in the Old English poem, The Dream Qf the Rood. Thus, two purposes emerge as central in this study: the development of a systems methodology for the study of literature and the clarification of the nature of the interrelationships of the Christian and the Germanic elements in The Dream <2f the Rood, both as a point of literary interest in itself and as a demonstration of the systems approach to a literary problem. -
Liturgical Images and the Old English Poems of the Dream of the Rood Tradition
620 Book Reviews / Religion and the Arts 12 (2008) 602–629 Ó Carragáin, Éamonn. Ritual and the Rood: Liturgical Images and the Old English Poems of the Dream of the Rood Tradition. British Library Studies in Medieval Culture, eds. Michelle P. Brown and Scot McKendrick. Lon- don and Toronto ON: Th e British Library and University of Toronto Press, 2005. Pp. xxxii + 427 + 74 illustrations + unpaginated illus. pp. $80.00 cloth. amonn Ó Carragáin’s magisterial synthesis of iconography, theology, Éliturgy, and church history represents both the culmination of his decades-long engagement with the backgrounds, contemporary contexts, and subsequent history of the Northumbrian crosses; and the clearest and most convincing presentation yet of the cultural milieu in which the crosses, in addition to the later Brussels Cross and the closely related Old English poem “Th e Dream of the Rood,” were created and used. Despite some limitations engendered by the book’s methodology and scope, it will surely stand as the essential treatment of this group of texts and artifacts for many years to come. Th e principal objects and texts under discussion are the Northumbrian stone crosses at Ruthwell (dated by Ó Carragáin to the 730s or early 740s, somewhat earlier than the usual date of mid- to late eighth century) and Bewcastle (early eighth century, shortly before Ruthwell); the poem “Th e Dream of the Rood” (of uncertain date, but contained in the late tenth- century Vercelli Book manuscript from southern England); and the wood- and-silver Brussels Cross (early eleventh century, also southern). Although infl uenced by diff erent traditions, the objects in this group are nicely cohe- sive: the Ruthwell and Bewcastle Crosses are related in their iconography and general style, and the inscriptions on the Ruthwell and Brussels Crosses and the text of “Th e Dream” derive ultimately from a common or closely related vernacular source. -

Kobe University Respotitory Kernel http://www.lib.kobe-u.ac.jp/kernel/ Contemporary Latin & Vernacular Cross Hymns & Poems No language in Christendom was uttered in isolation; the Christianity of the Anglo-Saxon was imbibed with the learning of Latin while the Anglo-Saxon language was bordered with the languages of Scotland, Wales, and Ireland. This series of contemporary Latin and vernacular Cross hymns and poems complement the Old English texts. They not only indicate a broader religious context but also a shared tradition. Vexilla Regis Prodeunt and Pange Lingua by Fortunatus and Victimae Paschali Laudes by Wipo were sung in the liturgy of Lent and Holy Week in the Medieval Church. The Latin texts continue to be used in the liturgy of Lent and Holy Week. The Mugrón and Blathmac extracts from the Irish tradition are meditative pieces on the role of the Cross as protector and in the history of salvation; both themes are emphasized in The Dream of the Rood. 56 Vexilla Regis Prodeunt Venantius Fortunatus (circa AD 530 – ?609) was born in northern Italy. He became chaplain to the community of nuns founded by Radegund at Poitiers in western France a few years previously. -

Degree awarded June 2016 ii © 2016 Sean Russell Mock iii THESIS ABSTRACT Sean Russell Mock Master of Arts Department of the History of Art and Architecture June 2016 Title: Say What I am Called: A Corpus of Anglo-Saxon Self-Referential Inscriptions This thesis compiles a working corpus of Anglo-Saxon self-referential inscribed artifacts to examine how the inscriptions and supports utilize self-reference to push the viewer to understand the social and cultural significance of such objects. The inscriptions fall into two broad categories: personal inscriptions reinforce the prestige of the makers, owners, and commissioners associated with them, while impersonal inscriptions authorize philosophical and social discourse through the adoption of literary and oral types (i.e. genres). In addition to an analysis of specific artifacts—ranging from diminutive rings to monumental stone crosses—I provide a quantitative analysis that illustrates the different uses of languages, scripts, and object types.
