- The Pursuit of a Medieval Meter

Om Reconstructing Alliterative Verse

Recent studies of Beowulf, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, and Piers Plowman point towards a new understanding of English literary history in the Middle Ages. This book explains why alliterative meter has resisted modern efforts at comprehension, how it differed from accentual-syllabic forms, and why it died out.
