Hypertext Editions

The hypertext editions are designed to help you study your course texts in conjunction with the text book by Mitchell and Robinson. Each edition provides you with the text itself, linked notes, a running glossary, translations and additional information concerning the historical context of the text and it's sources. There is also a comprehensive reading list with links to online, instantly accessible articles and exercises that you can perform to help you understand the text fully in preparation for the exam.

At this time only one text is available as a hypertext edition, but don't worry other texts will be added shortly. If you have any ideas or thoughts on resources that could be included for any of the set texts on the Old English course please feel free to contact us.

The hypertext editions are best viewed on a browser that can support frames and javascript pop-up windows. If you know that your browser will not support these please use the no-frames version.
