Abstract:
Exeter, Cathedral Library, 3501, fols. 8–130, the celebrated Exeter Book of Old English Poetry, preserves approximately one-sixth of the surviving corpus of Old English verse, and its importance for the study of pre-Conquest vernacular literature can hardly be exaggerated. It is physically a handsome codex, and is of large dimensions for one written in the vernacular: c. 320 × 220 mm, with a written area of c. 240 × 160 mm (see pl. III). In contrast to many coeval English manuscripts, particularly those in the vernacular, there is documentary evidence for the Exeter Book's pre-Conquest provenance. Assuming it is identical with the ‘i mycel Englisc boc be gehwilcum þingum on leoðwisum geworht’ (‘one large English book about various things written in verse’) in the inventory of lands, ornaments and books that Leofric, bishop of Crediton then Exeter, had acquired for the latter foundation, then it has been at Exeter since the third quarter of the eleventh century. This, however, is at least three generations after the book was written, and it has generally been assumed that it originated else where. Identifying the scriptorium where the Exeter Book was made is clearly a matter of the greatest interest and importance. A recent, admirably thorough monograph has put forward a thought-provoking case for seeing Exeter itself as the centre responsible, and has proceeded to draw a range of literary and historical conclusions from this. The comprehensive new critical edition of the manuscript has favoured the thesis, and it has been echoed elsewhere. If correct, this is extremely valuable and exciting – but is it correct? The matter is of sufficient importance to merit further scrutiny.

Abstract:
Abstract The emendation of the manuscript reading beþuncan to beþencan in line 7b of the Exeter Book’s Riddle 48 has been widely accepted. The Old English Dialogues, however, provide evidence that a strong passive participle beþuncen had been introduced into the paradigm of the weak verb beþencan (to entrust) in the Mercian dialect, admitting the possibility that beþuncan is a genuine preterite plural form. The passive participle brungen, attested in Mercian, is a possible analogical basis for the development of beþuncen in the same dialect, from which other strong forms may subsequently have arisen. The meter and the motives for scribal alteration in Riddle 48 make it probable that beþuncan is original and that it is rather ongietan in line 6a that should be emended.

Abstract:
The Old English poem known as The Husband's Message begins in the same minimalist style as is typical of a number of poems of the Exeter Book (Exeter, Cathedral Library, 3501). A first-person speaker, an ‘I’, begins speaking without any context for speech yet being established, without any self-introduction, and without as yet any known purpose: Nu ic onsundran þe secgan wille … As with the Exeter Book elegies known as The Seafarer, The Wife's Lament and Wulf and Eadwacer, just as with all fifty Exeter Book riddles that are put into the first person singular voice, there is an implied challenge for the reader to discover who the speaker is and to fill out his or her full story. The poem thus begins with a small enigma. It is easy to tell that we are in the midst of that part of the Exeter Book that consists of close to one hundred riddles interspersed by a small miscellany of other poems, several of which are riddle-like in their resistance to easy interpretation.

Abstract:
Abstract One of the very few ‘rules’ that operate (almost) without exceptions in Old English prose and poetry is that in se-relatives, se is preceded by the preposition that governs it. In the entire Old English corpus, Mitchell (1985: §2244) finds only one counterexample in the Exeter Book Riddle 6, lines 7–8. In this relative clause, the preposition on governing the demonstrative þa that functions as both antecedent and relative is postposed. The present article suggests grouping the preposition on (7b) with the adverb feorran ‘far’ (8a) that immediately follows it and analysing the main verb of the relative clause as transitive. As a result, the relative clause follows the ‘rule’: the preposition on is no longer postposed, and the pronoun þa, which functions as a direct object in the principal and relative clauses, is assigned accusative by the main verbs of both clauses.

Abstract:
An examination of historical and textual evidence supporting the thesis that the tenth-century Old English Exeter Book (Exeter Dean and Chapter MS. 3501) may have been compiled for, or even in, an Anglo-Saxon female monastic foundation or mixed-sex double house. The Exeter Book poems, many with female subjects, have been studied extensively, but rarely treated as components that unite to form a deliberately compiled, cohesive anthology. This study examines four main subjects: women's participation in both Latin and vernacular textual culture in the early Middle Ages in past and present scholarship; the history and structure of the codex; a summary of evidence indicating the possibility of the Exeter Book's production in or for a woman's monastic foundation or a double-house; a survey of the female figures in the Book and the effect of a "gendered" reading on the study of the codex as a unified document.

Abstract:
This thesis offers an examination and analysis of the manuscript compilation of three poems: Judgement Day I, Resignation A and Resignation B (ff.115v-19v) found in Exeter Cathedral Library MS 3501. It argues that paratextual information including textual division, subordination and manuscript layout are indicative of compiler intention and are significant in the interpretation and subsequent editing practice of Old English texts. An examination of other Old English manuscripts reveals that compilation of this sort was not uncommon; this compilation is indicative of the intended function of the poems as conceived by the manuscript compiler. Evidence from Old English homilies provides a context for the compilation of JDayI with ResA and ResB, where the poems can be seen to share themes common to sets of Rogationtide homilies. An analysis of the use of textual division markers found throughout the Exeter Book manuscript is also provided. This thesis is divided into five main sections: methodology; thematic evidence; contextual evidence; manuscript evidence; and a transcription of JDayI, ResA and ResB. Section I presents the methodology which informs this study, examining the significance of manuscript context in the interpretation and editorial practice of Old English poetry; it also provides an editorial rationale for the semi-diplomatic transcription of Section V. Section II: Thematic Evidence provides an individual review of each poem’s critical history, genre classification and literary analysis, and re-evaluates the poems anew. Section III: Contextual Evidence brings together the thematic evidence of Section II to argue the poems were compiled together in the Exeter Book because they reflected themes common to Rogationtide homilies. Using evidence of similar manuscript compilation in Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, MS 201 (CCCC 201) and in the Vercelli Homilies (specifically VercHomXIX-XXI) it is argued the three Exeter Book poems were placed together for use during Rogationtide, and thereby designed to promote compunction, confession and penance among the audience. Section IV: Manuscript Evidence examines the layout and textual division of these three texts and results displaying the textual division and subordination practice found throughout the Exeter Book manuscript are provided. Finally, Section V: Transcription presents a diplomatic transcription of the texts with facing facsimile image to reflect their manuscript context. The original contributions of this thesis are therefore twofold: i. It presents original data and analysis of textual division practice used in the Exeter Book manuscript ii. It provides thematic, contextual and manuscript evidence of manuscript compilation of JDayI, ResA and ResB and provides an explanation of the purpose such compilation sought to offer.

Abstract:
"The purpose of this paper is to interpret the riddles of the Exeter Book by reconsidering previous and modern research, claiming that the descriptions of many subjects through different devices offer the reader an insight into Anglo-Saxon sense of playfulness, material culture, literary and ecological consciousness. First chapter analyses riddle genre starting with a historical approach, showing how it could be considered one of the most ancient kinds of literature. In chapter two Anglo-Saxon riddle production and its circulation is investigated. Third chapter has its focus on how the range of different subjects of the Exeter Book riddles provides insight into social relationships. Chapter four and five take into consideration two different approaches, anthropocentrism and ecocriticism, focusing on the meaning of material culture, how Anglo-Saxon interacted with things (non-human objects but also nature) and how interactions affected the concepts of time and modification. The aim is to achieve some knowledge regarding Anglo Saxon perception of life, what it meant for them being inhabitants of the natural world. As a literary genre built upon metaphor, riddles are a perfect example to show how all things shift shape as time unfolds. Riddles solutions have long been object of study and still are under investigation, it is important to not forget the main characteristic of the genre: the fact that it is difficult to solve since it was meant to be a way of entertaining people through the intricacy of the given question. In fact, sometimes riddles do not have a ‘right’ answer, they simply allow for deeper thinking regarding a topic or issue, acknowledging other questions to arise in a critical reading, interrogating many aspects on different levels.

Abstract:
Abstract A prototype of a simple, footwear-testing machine which mimics the physiologic motions and forces of walking in one plane has been designed, developed and tested. Eleven ROTC students were measured and filmed to obtain information on the kinematics of the lower limb and the dynamic forces exerted by their footwear on the ground while walking across a load plate. A machine was then designed which uses the coupler curve of a fourbar linkage to simulate the planar kinematics of the heel-strike and toe-off portions of walking. A standard-issue U. S. Army combat boot is attached to the fourbar linkage’s coupler link on a prosthetic foot such that the heel and sole are close to the moving centrode of the coupler. The ground plane is the fixed centrode. Thus their relative motion approximates pure rolling. The boot is “walked” against a force-plate which is loaded by an air cylinder. This force plate is pulled away during the walking “backstroke”. The dynamic forces of impact are measured by two force transducers. These measured forces simulate the vertical physiologic forces of walking and the kinematics provides realistic physiologic motions to the boot in a vertical plane.

Abstract:
The thermo-mechanical description of two-phase mixtures, as it is presented in Ishii’s text-book for example, is quite general but not particularly suited for mixtures in which one phase is dispersed into the second one : in fact, the introduction of two stress tensors and two heat fluxes (related to the velocity gradients and temperature gradients of the respective phases) is in conflict with the hydrodynamic description of suspensions in which there is a single stress tensor and a single heat flux, related to the gradients of the volume-weighted average velocity and of the volume-weighted average temperature respectively. The problem of a two-phase description suitable for suspensions of particles was initiated among others by Buyevich, Nigmatulin and Prosperetti who focused mainly on the two momentum equations but did not consider in so much detail the two energy equations. In this forum on multiphase flows we will suggest the way these energy (and entropy) equations are to be written. We will start from a “mean-field” type of approach, in which the energy exchange between a particle and the surrounding fluid is related in part to the mean energy exchanges and to the mean energy dissipation that occur in the medium surrounding the particle. In fact we extend to energy the reasoning applied to momentum when one says that a large part of the force exerted by the fluid on a particle is due to the mean stress that exists around that particle, leading to the concept of a generalized Archimede’s force. That mean-field approach results in evolution equations (for momentum, energy and entropy) that are common to all types of particles but which can be simplified when the particles are supposed to be rigid or to have a constant volume. Phase transitions between the particles and the fluid will be taken into account, and the role of collisions between particles will be considered briefly. It must be clear at the outset that we are not so much interested in the constitutive relations as in the structure of (and the links between) the various evolution equations. But the proposed description has the merit of requiring a minimum number of constitutive relations for the system of equations to be closed.
