Synopsis:
A revisionist interpretation of Anglo-Saxon England. Nicholas Howe proposes that the Anglo-Saxons fashioned a myth out of the 5th-century migration of their Germanic ancestors to Britain. Through the retelling of this story, the Anglo-Saxons ordered their complex history and identified their destiny as a people. Howe traces the migration myth throughout the literature of the Anglo-Saxon period, in poems, sermons, letters and histories from the sixth to the eleventh centuries.
About the Author: NICHOLAS HOWE is professor of English at Ohio State University and director of the Center for Medieval and Renaissance Studies. In addition to many published articles and essays, Howe is the author of The Old English Catalogue Poems (1985), editor of Irving Howe's Critic's Notebook (1995), and co-editor of Words and Works (1998).
