{"product_id":"the-composition-of-old-english-hal-momma-9780521554817","title":"The Composition of Old English Poetry","description":"This book offers an imaginative new way of understanding the relationship between syntax and meter in Old English verse. It challenges the view that Old English poetry is composed in loose syntax to compensate for the strict requirements of prosody, such as meter and alliteration. The author proposes a \"prosodical\" syntax to replace the syntactic laws of Hans Kuhn through its greater accuracy and wider range of application. She formulates three concise rules that apply to the entire Old English poetic corpus.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hal Momma\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521554810\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521554817\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/28\/1997\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 220\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.20w x 0.80d","brand":"Hal Momma","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44616348532991,"sku":"9780521554817","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9e80e917-50a5-4104-a85b-17f19d0643c0.jpg?v=1703019852","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-composition-of-old-english-hal-momma-9780521554817","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
