trange Likeness: The Use of Old English in Twentieth-Century Poetry
Oxford University Press, USA | ISBN: 0199278326 | 288 pages | November 16, 2006 | PDF | 1 Mb
Strange Likeness provides the first full account of how Old English (or Anglo-Saxon) was rediscovered by twentieth-century poets, and the uses to which they put that discovery in their own writing. Chapters deal with Ezra Pound, W. H. Auden, Edwin Morgan, and Seamus Heaney. Stylistic debts to Old English are examined, along with the effects on these poets’ work of specific ideas about Old English language and literature as taught while these poets were studying the subject at university. Issues such as linguistic primitivism, the supposed ‘purity’ of the English language, the politics and ethics of translation, and the construction of ‘Englishness’ within the literary canon are discussed in the light of these poets and their Old English encounters. Heaney’s translation of Beowulf is fully contextualized within the body of the rest of his work for the first time.

The Discovery of Spoken Language (Language, Speech, and Communication)
The MIT Press 2000-07-31
ISBN: 0262600366
PDF 326 pages 1,4 Mb
The Discovery of Spoken Language marks one of the first efforts to integrate the field of infant speech perception research into the general study of language acquisition. It fills in a key part of the acquisition story by providing an extensive review of research on the acquisition of language during the first year of life, focusing primarily on how normally developing infants learn the organization of native language sound patterns.
Peter Jusczyk examines the initial capacities that infants possess for discriminating and categorizing speech sounds and how these capacities evolve as infants gain experience with native language input. Jusczyk also looks at how infants’ growing knowledge of native language sound patterns may facilitate the acquisition of other aspects of language organization and discusses the relationship between the learner’s developing capacities for perceiving and producing speech.
