- W2285529621 abstract "Among the variety of genres and themes found in the Exeter Book – Exeter Cathedral Library MS. 3501, Exeter – Wulf and Eadwacer (fols. 100v-101r), The Wife’s Lament (fols. 115r-115v) and The Husband’s Message (fols. 123r-123v) stand out for their similarity in content and form, all of them being poetical laments dealing with the separation of lovers. What makes these texts peculiar, however, is their having women as protagonists, and, in the case of Wulf and Eadwacer and The Wife’s Lament, their being spoken by those female protagonists. Since Benjamin Thorpe’s editio princeps of the MS. in 1842, the above-mentioned poems have been edited and largely commented upon in editions of the whole Exeter Book and in single studies, but never in the combination proposed in the present work. The aim of this thesis is to provide a critical edition taking into account all the readings proposed up to now – both in editions and in critical studies –, and a comprehensive history of the criticism on the texts in the form of a systematic classification of all the commentaries on the poems. The latter is completed by a variorum commentary, in which different interpretations and translations of crucial words and phrases are given in detail. This kind of work on the three poems in question has never been carried out, and it is needed for two reasons. Firstly, many scholars from the 1960s onwards have faced the poems without taking into account early editions and commentaries, with the result that a number of interpretations have been presented as original although they were not. Secondly, the criticism on these texts has accumulated so much that it has become necessary to operate a clear distinction between what the poems actually tell, and what critics tell about them or want them to tell." @default.
