The site also includes the first of a series of studies, "Representing the Verbal Art of Beowulf: Syntax and Meter."
Description
Editions of Old English texts that include the graphotactics of original manuscripts. Graphotactics concerns the incidence and measure of spacings between strings of written symbols of a text, where both the graphic symbols and the spacings carry linguistic information.
