This conference supports the Electronic Corpus of Anonymous Homilies in Old English (ECHOE), a joint research project between Winfried Rudolf (Göttingen) and Susan Irvine (UCL) funded by the Alexander von Humboldt-Foundation. This digital project aims to create a scholarly resource which foregrounds the compositional and variational aspects of these texts, enables the comparison of any two versions of the corpus, maps the complex interversional networks, and marks up all revisional layers added by scribes before 1200. Further aspects include the specific charting of recurring tropes and motifs, and the rethinking of the nomenclature for the Old English anonymous corpus.
Papers focus specifically on the sources, the compositional and variational aspects, and the manuscript contexts of Old English anonymous homilies and their interversional networks. We also include round table discussions on important aspects of the project, during which we hope to be able to reassess and rethink the past, present, and future of the study of Old English anonymous homilies.
