Explore the intricate uses of the genitive in early English text. This scholarly study examines how West-Saxon prose employs the genitive to express partitive relationships, possession, description, and a range of other grammatical connections, with a focus on the Lindisfarne Gospels and related Latin texts. Based on a 1907 master’s thesis, it reveals how the genitive interacts with nouns, verbs, adjectives, and prepositional constructions to convey meaning beyond simple ownership.
