Release Date: 1998
Dennis Freeborn traces the development of the English language from Old English, through Middle and Early Middle English, to the establishment of standard English in the 18th century.
An Old English Grammar
This book is designed especially for the literary student of English, and provides a single compact grammar primarily concerned with Classical Old English, rather than the other Old English dialects. The book takes a descriptive approach and avoids assuming a knowledge of Germanic philology. The introduction provides a minimum background of knowledge and indicates the kinds of evidence on which the grammatical description is based.
