Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'The Riddles of Aldhelm' offers a captivating glimpse into the intellectual and literary world of the 7th-century Anglo-Saxon scholar and saint, Aldhelm of Malmesbury. This collection, known originally as the 'Aenigmata', consists of one hundred poetic riddles that explore the mysteries of the na…tural world, the complexities of everyday objects, and the profundities of Christian thought. Ranging from the humble silkworm and the majestic elephant to abstract concepts like Nature itself, these verses demonstrate Aldhelm's mastery of Latin hexameter and his keen observation of his environment.This edition provides both the text and a skillful verse translation, making these ancient enigmas accessible to modern readers. As a cornerstone of early English literature, 'The Riddles of Aldhelm' serves not only as a display of sophisticated wordplay but also as an invaluable historical record of the scholarly traditions that flourished in early medieval Britain. Readers will find themselves challenged and delighted by the wit and imagery of one of the period's most influential writers, whose work paved the way for the later tradition of Old English riddles found in the Exeter Book.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
