The Composition of Old English Poetry - Cambridge Studies in Anglo-Saxon England

This book offers an imaginative way of understanding the relationship between syntax and metre in Old English poetry. It challenges the view that verse was composed in loose syntax to compensate for the strict requirements of prosody. The author proposes a 'prosodical' syntax to replace the famous syntactic laws of Hans Kuhn.
