This collection represents most of the papers delivered on the
conference theme of the Fifth Meeting (1991) of the International
Society of Anglo-Saxonists, which was the first ISAS meeting in the
United States: how the subject of Anglo-Saxon Studies is conducted in
the United States. After an introduction by the dean of Anglo-Saxon
Studies in America, Fred C. Robinson, the seventeen papers discuss
Historiography, Medieval Reception of Anglo-Saxon England, Art and
Archaeology, Literary Approaches, and Manuscript Studies. There is an
index of the whole, manuscript citations included.
