The Vercelli Book, as the manuscript is generally titled, contains a good deal of prose homiletic material amongst which are dispersed six poems. These six pieces, translated here, have been modernly titled Andreas, The Fates of the Apostles, Soul and Body, Homiletic Fragment 1, The Dream of the Rood, and Elene. These six poems treat fairly conventional medieval Christian subjects, although there are some unconventional and particularly Old English aspects to those treatments. It is worthwhile to note and emphasize that Medieval Europe had a vast shared common stock of narratives of saints lives, biblical commentaries, conventional homiletic themes - in short, a shared body of symbolic language which was used and reused across political and linguistic boundaries. This shared heritage has been largely lost to the non-scholarly, non-specialist reader, and so, Old English poetry, particularly poetry such as the pieces in the Vercelli Book, walks in a landscape foreign to the modern reader. A poem such as Andreas, walking the mythical, cannibal Crimea, is perhaps more foreign to the modern reader than the tale of tortured Grendel lurking in the dark moors above Heorot. But that shared body of symbolic language lies behind both Beowulf and Andreas, behind both Grendel and the Myrmidonians. Old English poetry survives in four great manuscript collections, in two Old English translations of Latin originals, and in a multitude of bits and pieces of manuscript and modern transcription of now-lost manuscripts. Virtually all that has survived of verse from the Old English period is contained in The Anglo-Saxon Poetic Records, edited by George Philip Krapp and Elliott Van Kirk Dobbie in six volumes in the middle of the last century. These six volumes amount to something around 30,000 lines of verse, roughly equivalent to the number of hexameter lines in Homer's The Iliad and The Odyssey combined. The present volume is a translation of Volume 2 of the Anglo-Saxon Poetic Records.

". . . . Guenevere is a superb play with surprises, somber tones, and some slight comedy mixed in if you know where to look."- Callum McCabe, "2018 Fringe Review: Guenevere", The Gateway Online. A verse play in the form of a Classical Greek tragedy.The final day of Camelot seen through the eyes of the women left behind by war. Guenevere the Queen has taken refuge with nuns in an Abbey as the men of her life battle to save what warfare can only destroy. One by one they come to her for final leave-takings. Then all that is left is myth. Guenevere's tragedy arises from the inevitably accumulated baggage of social responsibility that in the end prevents us from following our heart's desire. And Guenevere's redemption comes in her willing embrace of her transformation into myth. Guenevere's story is the story of every human who ages as a social animal. Only the solitary hermit or anchoress can escape the ever increasing calls for us to discharge our duties at the expense of our dreams of simply following our bliss. But the hermit and anchoress long ago gave up on worldly bliss."Guenevere" was produced in 2018 at the Edmonton International Fringe Festival after development and a ten day run in 2017 as a part of the Walterdale Theatre's Cradle to Stage Festival.

My name is Hori, and my sister's name is Meres Amun. We wish to tell you about the history of Ancient Egypt. Did you know that the largest part of Egypt was made up of desert sands, making it seem empty and barren? There were also large rocks and high cliffs. The river Nile made Egypt a place where people could live and work. It created a vast green area with trees and vegetation. The people called it "The beloved land", and it gave Egypt its wealth and was good for agriculture. There were two rivers which formed the Nile. The Blue Nile ascended from the mountains in Abyssinia, and the White Nile from the waters in central Africa. Egypt had three Kingdoms. The Old Kingdom existed from 2640 to 2130 BC. This was the period when the first pyramids were built, and many other prominent buildings were constructed. It was also a flourishing time for the arts, medicine, literature and science.

The intricate world-building and vivid descriptions in John Richardson's story immerse readers in a world full of magical creatures, epic quests, and hidden mysteries. The book expertly combines action-packed episodes with introspective periods, allowing readers to relate with the characters on a deeper level. "The Prophecy: Volume 1" is a compelling opening to a greater fantasy story, leaving readers hungry to read on to find out what happens to the people they've grown to care about. Richardson's writing ability shines through as he constructs a story that catches the imagination and keeps readers turning pages, ready to discover the next surprise in this epic quest.

Nanotechnology and the Future TransformationJohn Richardson, the author. John Richardson's new book, "The Nanotech Revolution: Transforming the Future," delves deep into the revolutionary field of nanotechnology and its far-reaching effects on society, academia, and business. This book examines the extraordinary developments that have come from the realm of nanotechnology in a way that is both informative and entertaining, demonstrating the revolutionary potential of this field. The secrets of altering matter at the nanoscale are revealed as Richardson leads readers on an enthralling adventure through the complex worlds of nanoscience and nanotechnology. He explores the fundamental ideas behind nanotechnology, from working with individual atoms to developing ground-breaking new materials and gadgets, in a lucid and analytical manner. Nanotechnology is already influencing many industries, and "The Nanotech Revolution" sheds light on how it is reshaping everything from medicine and energy to electronics and manufacturing. Richardson delves into how nanotechnology is revolutionising healthcare, fostering environmental sustainability, and propelling creativity in ways that were previously unimaginable through thought-provoking case studies and conversations with experts. This book is a great resource for everyone interested in nanotechnology, from the casual science reader to the tech-savvy professional. The future imagined in John Richardson's "The Nanotech Revolution" is one in which little technologies have enormous effects.

The Exeter Book is by far the largest single collection of Old English poetry surviving today. At first glance it might seem to be a commonplace book, a sort of dumping ground for bits of verse which caught the scribe's notice at the moment. But, before long, a careful reading of the poems collected shows an artfulness, a playfulness, and a wisdom in the arrangement of the poems. The Exeter Book is a collection designed to teach, and what it teaches is a particularly Old English Christianity, beginning with the Advent of Christ, a very particular and fundamental aspect of Christianities, proceeding through Saints' lives and allegorical pieces, and the apparently personal poems often referred to as "elegies", and puzzling the reader with the mysteries of the Riddles - and of the world - before fading to black. Old English poetry survives in four great manuscript collections, in two Old English translations of Latin originals, and in a multitude of bits and pieces of manuscript and modern transcription of now-lost manuscripts. Virtually all that has survived of verse from the Old English period is contained in The Anglo-Saxon Poetic Records, edited by George Philip Krapp and Elliott Van Kirk Dobbie in six volumes in the middle of the last century. These six volumes amount to something around 30,000 lines of verse, roughly equivalent to the number of hexameter lines in Homer's The Iliad and The Odyssey combined. The present volume is a translation of Volume 3 of the Anglo-Saxon Poetic Records.

Stirring the Dry Bones is decidedly not a work of scholarship as scholarship is done today. It is unreliable and not exhaustive (although perhaps more reliable and more exhaustive than some of what passes for scholarship today) in its reference; it is rambling and perhaps unfocused; it is decidedly, in the words of an anonymous peer reviewer I once encountered in a different context, "shockingly untheorized". Stirring the Dry Bones is a product of what the same anonymous reviewer named "an old-style philologist". This fact will perhaps become obvious with a glance at the notes and the bibliography, which are both filled with a grand company of very old old-style philologists. Not much space is held for more modern scholarship, partly out of a lack of interest in the modern theoretical fads of the field, and partly out of the sheer laziness of advancing age: I have a very nice garden (alongside a personal library Cicero would have envied) and "Je sais aussi. . . qu'il faut cultiver notre jardin."

The poems translated here, which were gathered together in the final volume of the Anglo-Saxon Poetic Records under the title The Anglo-Saxon Minor Poems, are the offspring of the scattering over the centuries of manuscript fragments, of engraved stones, of carved whale bone, of poetry inserted into prose manuscripts, and of bits of poetry that only are known to us because somebody, somewhere, sometime transcribed a manuscript now lost to us.There is nothing "Minor" about these poems so randomly scattered by history and then haphazardly gathered into a single volume by a single editor in the middle of the Twentieth Century. Certainly some pieces are better as poetry - less "Minor" if not more "Major" - than others: I have a fondness for Thureth and for Maxims II; others may prefer the neo-Heroic mode of The Battle of Maldon or of some of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle Poems; and the Metrical Charms will, of course, probably for all the wrong reasons, be favourites of the Neo-Pagan-Wiccan set.Elliott Van Kirk Dobbie, the editor of The Anglo-Saxon Minor Poems, confessed in the second sentence of his introduction to his edition that his choice of title was a matter of convenience rather than appropriateness. Siding with appropriateness, this volume of my translations of the Anglo-Saxon poems which are scattered outside the four large codices of Old English poems onto stone and whale bone, mingled with prose, or preserved as children of the scattered and lost in centuries-old transcriptions, I have chosen to title The Old English Scatterlings.
