Heliand Text and Commentary Text and Commentary

James E. Cathey's H liand: Text and Commentaryis a simply unique, wonderfully encompassing, and helpful text, and nothing quite like it exists anywhere in the world. The commentary portion of the book consists of an interweaving of interpretation and philological consideration. This work presents the reader with explanatory commentary that encompasses both the scientific and the poetic and treats them both with equal felicity. The volume also contains something that is exceptionally valuable and cannot be found in English: a compact and serviceable grammar of Old Saxon and an appended glossary that defines all of the vocabulary found in this edited version of the H liand.Cathey, James E. is the author of 'Heliand Text and Commentary Text and Commentary', published 2002 under ISBN 9780937058640 and ISBN 0937058645.
