Age of Alfred. Rethinking English Literary Culture c. 850-950
Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 600 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:18 b/w, 2 col., 5 tables b/w., Language:English. ISBN 9782503606651.
¶ King Alfred the Great (r. 871-899) remains a key figure in English literary history. Although his reputation as a scholar who was personally responsible for the translation of a number of Latin works is no longer secure, the figure of the wise king nevertheless casts a long shadow over vernacular writing from the late ninth century through to the twelfth. This volume takes stock of recent developments and debates in the field of Alfredian scholarship and showcases new directions in research. Individual chapters consider how English authors before, during, and after Alfred's reign translated and adapted Latin works, often in innovative and imaginative ways. Other contributions provide new contexts and connections for Alfredian writing, highlighting the work of Mercian scholars and expanding the corpus beyond the works traditionally attributed to the king himself. Together, these essays force us to rethink what we mean by 'Alfredian' and to revise the literary history of the 'long ninth century'.

Dali and Me
Scheidegger & Spiess, 2008 Hardcover, 184 pages, ENG, 225 x 165 x 20 mm, NEW, dustjacket, illustrated in b/w. ISBN 9783858817112.
¶ Salvador Dalķ's surrealist masterworks are admired worldwide for their eccentric metaphors. Far lesser known, though, are his fascinating writings, where he occupies himself with verve and in bewilderingly unrefined style with the human body and sexuality. The French art critic and writer Catherine Millet has studied Dalķ's artistic oeuvre and his writings for years. Her essay is the expression of a very personal reading of his self-reflecting texts. This pivotal book explains Dalķ's influence on his contemporary artist colleagues and reveals the narcissism, the constraints and the visual inventiveness of the most famous - and the most notorious - of the surrealists. The text is completed by rarely published photographs and paintings by Dalķ and others that illustrate Millet's ideas.

Philology in Turbulent Times. Joseph Bosworth, His Dictionary, and the Recovery of Old English
Brepols, 2023 Hardback, xxx + 314 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9780888449108.
¶ Summary This book situates Joseph Bosworth's A Dictionary of the Anglo-Saxon Language (1838) and its revised 1898 version in their cultural context, reconstructing their history from a wealth of archival materials. It opens up a larger investigation into the central role played by Bosworth's work in the birth and growth of Old English studies in the nineteenth century. And it examines the challenges faced by T. Northcote Toller in completing the revision of the Dictionary after Bosworth's death, as well as his compilation of its Supplement in 1921. Overall, this study aims to rectify widespread disciplinary ignorance of the Dictionary's conception, compilation, and publication, and to examine its impact on the development of the discipline.
