Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Teutonic Antiquities in the Generally Acknowledged Cynewulfian Poetry: A Dissertation Presented to the Philosophical Faculty of the University of Leipzig for the Acquisition of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy I present in the following pages the result of a study of the acknowledged Cynewulfian poems with reference to their Teutonic Antiquities. The fact that Anglosaxon poetry, even when based upon and closely following a Latin source, has a large element of native material which contributes in no small degree to a correct knowledge of the life and thought of the people themselves is generally recognized. Several pains-taking investigations have brought into clearer light the genuinely Teutonic side of a number of the longer Anglosaxon poems: among others that of Schultze, Altheidnisches in der angelsachsischen Poesie. speciell im Beowulf-liede, Berlin 1877, and of Kohler, Alterthumer in Beowulfliede, Germania XIII, 120 ff., of Ran, Germanische Alterthumer in der Angelsachsischen Exodus. Leipzig, 1889. and of Kent. Teutonic Antiquities in Andreas and Elene, Leipzig 1887 and of Ferrell, Teutonic Antiquities in the Anglosaxon Genesis, Leipzig, 1893. To make this presentation of the Teutonic aspect of the recognized Cynewulfian poetry complete it has been necessary for me to incorporate considerable material respecting the Elene in the essay, which has already been sought out and discussed by Mr. Kent in his dissertation upon Andreas and Elene. The inclusion of the Elene in the study has its justification only in the greater completeness of the presentation as I do not flatter myself to have found much in addition to what Mr. Kent has presented, however my views may differ from his on some minor points. But the omission of the Elene in a discussion treating this aspect of the Cynewulfian poems would leave the presentation most incomplete: for where in Cynewulf´s literature are those favorite topics of the Anglosaxon poet, war-and sea-life, so vividly presented as in Elene?
