Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, an integral volume in the Surtees Psalter series, meticulously examines the language of a Kentish psalter. Comprising nearly 200 entries, this book provides an exhaustive breakdown of the consonants and vowels used in the Psalter, their historical development, and their relations to the orthographic representation of language during this period in history. The author has approached the subject through the lens of phonetics and phonology, methods that have been influential in the study of linguistics as a discipline. One of the strengths of this book is its consideration of the Psalter within the greater context of other surviving Kentish and Old English documents, providing a broad overview of the evolution of this language. The author has carefully examined the relationship between orthography and phonology and the subsequent changes to poetic norms which mark the 8th century. This volume serves as a key reference for historical linguists and an invaluable resource for scholars of the Old English language.
