ENGL 90225: Old English Biblical Verse
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
The Anglo-Saxons were the earliest people in western Europe to translate the Bible into their vernacular, and a substantial proportion of surviving Old English Verse consists in biblical translation and paraphrase. The principal focus of the course will be the biblical poems preserved in the so-called 'Junius Manuscript' (Genesis A, Genesis B, Exodus, Daniel), but these and other relevant poems will be studied in the wider context of early medieval biblical exegesis, in particular the contribution made to biblical interpretation by Anglo-Saxon exegetes such as Archbishop Theodore, Bede, Alcuin and Ælfric. Candidates for the course must already have completed English 40212 (Introduction to Old English).

ENGL 90226: Language, Symbolism and Vision
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
Our aim will be to study three issues which are absolutely central to medieval thought and culture from the end of the patristic period to the Renaisaance (and indeed also beyond these limits). The danger of excessive generality in such an approach will be avoided 1. by isolating a group of seminal texts from the last ancient or early medieval period for careful scrutiny (wherever possible, in English translation); 2. by treating these texts as conceptual nuclei for broader linguistic, hermeneutic, and psychological theories which were widely held and discussed. The texts will be drawn from Origen, Ambrose, Augustine, Jerome, Macrobius, Boethius, Dionysius the Areopagite, and Isadore of Seville. Although a major aim of the course is to introduce important writers to the students and to pursue historical and literary matters, we will also find time to reflect on philosophical questions raised by such a tradition. What is the relation between divine and human language? Why is it necessary to connect language and symbol through psychic activity? What is the relation between secular myth and sacred symbol?

ENGL 90227: Chaucer and Medieval Narrative
3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
Whether writing at the epic length of Troilus and Criseyde, or compacting his story to the brief compass of the "Manciple's Tale" or "Physician's Tale," Chaucer is a master of narrative. This course will study the features of his narrative style, and analyze the ways in which they create meaning. We shall compare and contrast his works with other examples of medieval narrative, and assess it in the light of modern narratology. We shall consider such things as beginnings and endings, time, the narrating voice, rhetoric, verse-forms, dialogue, the locus of action, structure, mood, and the implied audience. The Canterbury Tales will occupy a central position in the course, but we shall take in other works as it seems profitable to do so.

3.00 Credits
University of Notre Dame
The political poetry of the period 1541-1688 will be discussed and analyzed against the historical background. The primary focus will be the mentality of the native intelligentsia as it is reflected in the poetry and as it responded to the momentous changes of the period. The origins and rise of the cult of the Stuarts will be examined and the historiography of the period will be assessed.
