{"product_id":"excerptiones-de-prisciano-david-w-porter-9780859916356","title":"Excerptiones de Prisciano: The Source for ﾆLfric's Latin-Old English Grammar","description":"When the famous Anglo-Saxon scholar  lfric wrote the first grammar in a European vernacular, he used as his direct source the 'Excerptiones de Prisciano' excerpts from major curriculum authors of the medieval schools, including Donatus, Isidore and Priscian himself . The tenth-century text, probably of English origin, most probably compiled by  lfric, is an ambitious compendium of grammatical lore, and it is, with the exception of  lfric's own 'Grammar', arguably the most sophisticated Latin-learning text of the Anglo-Saxon age. Edited here for the first time, the 'Excerptiones' appear with all 'scholia', an English translation, and a full contextual introduction. DAVID W.
