Old English Grammar

This book is designed especially for the literary student of English, and provides a single compact grammar primarily concerned with Classical Old English, rather than the other Old English dialects. The book takes a descriptive approach and avoids assuming a knowledge of Germanic philology. The introduction provides a minimum background of knowledge and indicates the kinds of evidence on which the grammatical description is based.Quirk, Randolph is the author of 'Old English Grammar', published 1958 under ISBN 9780415045346 and ISBN 0415045347.
