{"product_id":"humour-in-anglo-saxon-literature-jonathan-wilcox-9780859915762","title":"Humour in Anglo-Saxon Literature","description":"Although the question of humour in the surviving corpus of Old English literature has rarely been discussed, the potential for analyzing this literature in terms of its humour is in fact considerable. In the essays especially commissioned for this volume, the first book-length treatment of Anglo-Saxon humor, eight of the foremost scholars in the field use different approaches to explore humor in the surviving literature of Anglo-Saxon England, prefaced with an introduction surveying the field. Through its unusual focus, this collection will provide an appealing introduction to both famous and lesser-known works for those new to Old English literature, while those familiar with the usual contours of Old English literary criticism will find here the value of a fresh approach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jonathan Wilcox\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 085991576X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780859915762\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Boydell \u0026amp; Brewer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/04\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 170\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.59h x 6.37w x 0.77d","brand":"Jonathan Wilcox","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48087023419647,"sku":"9780859915762","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_551ec691-8716-4987-b3b4-8bdb1b8d2834.jpg?v=1769097855","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/humour-in-anglo-saxon-literature-jonathan-wilcox-9780859915762","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
