Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the prominence of alliteration in Middle English poetry, with a specific focus on its use in three works: The Troy Book, Morte Arthure, and Piers Plowman. The author analyzes how alliteration is a key indicator of which syllables in a word were stressed, providing crucial insight into the development of English pronunciation and vocabulary. Questions surrounding the stress of certain words, both alone and in compounds, are considered. The complexities of specific examples of alliteration are discussed, considering words of Germanic or English origin alongside those with Romance origins. Throughout, the author astutely considers the metrical construction and alliterative patterns employed by these medieval poets. The book's findings deepen our understanding of the evolution of the English language and the rich literary traditions of Middle English poetry. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781330681213_0
