While quill and ink were the writing implements of choice in the Anglo-Saxon scriptorium, other colouring and non-colouring writing implements were in active use, too. The stylus, among them, was used on an everyday basis both for taking notes in wax tablets and for several vital steps in the creation of manuscripts. Occasionally, the stylus or perhaps even small knives were used for writing short notes that were scratched in the parchment surface without ink. One particular type of such notes encountered in manuscripts are dry-point glosses, i.e. short explanatory remarks that provide a translation or a clue for a lexical or syntactic difficulty of the Latin text. The present study provides a comprehensive overview of the known corpus of dry-point glosses in Old English by cataloguing the 34 manuscripts that are currently known to contain such glosses. A first general descriptive analysis of the corpus of Old English dry-point glosses is provided and their difficult visual appearance is discussed with respect to the theoretical and practical implications for their future study.
William Allin immigrated from England to Portsmouth, Rhode Island in 1650.
Anglo-Saxon Manuscripts is the first publication to list every surviving manuscript or manuscript fragment written in Anglo-Saxon England between the seventh and the eleventh centuries or imported into the country during that time. Each of the 1,291 entries in Helmut Gneuss and Michael Lapidge's Bibliographical Handlist not only details the origins, contents, current location, script, and decoration of the manuscript, but also provides bibliographic entries that list facsimiles, editions, linguistic analyses, and general studies relevant to that manuscript. A general bibliography, designed to provide full details of author-date references cited in the individual entries, includes more than 4,000 items. Compiled by two of the field's greatest living scholars, the Gneuss-Lapidge Bibliographical Handlist stands to become the most important single-volume research tool to appear in the field since Greenfield and Robinson's Bibliography of Publications on Old English Literature. Their achievement in the present book will endure for many decades and serve as a catalyst for new research across several disciplines.

From the Holy Land and the long Crusades, to European kingdoms, 20th Century Paris, Venice, and New Orleans, Dark Ages sweeps the reader into a world of intrigue, danger, and timeless romance. Set in the Mid-Nineteen Nineties, in Southern Louisiana, Dark Ages opens a window into the subculture of Liatris, people upon whom vampire myths and legends were based. Anton Kierkegaard is a wealthy financier, trapped in a world of masters and slaves who are governed by their instincts, and by ancient laws as old as civilization. Into this world, he brings a young woman, Rachel Frederick. Held captive by powerful beings she cannot understand, Rachel becomes a pawn in the battle between coldly calculating creatures of the night, and the men who pursue them. Rachel must learn to survive at the center of a clash of cultures, questioning everything she has ever believed, even her own sanity.
