Summary: | Taken from the same manuscript as Cynewulf, the Junius 11 poems-Genesis, Exodus, Daniel, and Christ and Satan-comprisenbsp; a series of redacted Old English works that have beennbsp; traditionallynbsp; presented as the work of Bede's Caedmon. Medieval scholars have concluded that the four poems were composed by more than one author and later edited by Juniusnbsp; in 1655. All of the poems are notable for their Christiannbsp; content. Apart from its focus on the Junius 11 manuscript,nbsp; this collection of essays is also important as a study of how to read, edit, and define any medieval literary text. |
