Hermann Möller
Das Altenglische Volksepos in Der Ursprünglichen Strophischen Form, Volumes 1-2 by Hermann Möller presents a detailed examination of Old English epic poetry, focusing on its original strophic form. This two-volume work, originally published in 1883, offers a meticulous analysis of the structural elements of Anglo-Saxon epics, likely including works such as 'Beowulf.' Möller’s study delves into the intricacies of the poetic meter and stanzaic arrangements prevalent in early Germanic literature. This historical linguistic analysis provides valuable insights into the development of English poetic tradition and is essential for scholars of Germanic philology and medieval literature. This work will appeal to those interested in the historical context of English language and literature, as well as those studying comparative literature and the development of epic poetry.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
