Synopsis
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.
- Learn how partitive, possessive, descriptive, subjective, and objective genitives function in West-Saxon prose.
- See how the genitive interacts with verbs of emotion, activity, and description, and how it can combine with dative and instrumental cases.
- Understand how adjectival use, comparative forms, and pronouns influence genitive construction.
- Gain insight into the methodology for analyzing medieval texts and the typology of genitive patterns in a major linguistic study.
