Abstract

The triple themes of textile, text, and intertext, three powerful and evocative subjects within both Anglo-Saxon studies and Old English literature itself, run through the essays collected here. Chapters evoke the semantic complexities of textile references and images drawn from the Bayeux Tapestry, examine parallels in word-woven poetics, riddling texts, and interwoven homiletic and historical prose, and identify iconographical textures in medieval art. The volume thus considers the images and creative strategies of textiles, texts, and intertexts, generating a complex and fascinating view ofthe material culture and metaphorical landscape of the Anglo-Saxon peoples. It is therefore a particularly fitting tribute to Professor Gale R. Owen-Crocker, whose career and lengthy list of scholarly works have centred on her interests in the meaning and cultural importance of textiles, manuscripts and text, and intertextual relationships between text and textile.

Abstract

Kant heeft een rijk en veelzijdig verleden, en werd door de eeuwen heen in diverse contexten gebruikt: bij rites de passage — doopsel, huwelijk en begrafenis — maar ook in oorlogstijd. De collectie van The Phoebus Foundation bevat een mooie deelverzameling oorlogskant, met stuk voor stuk lapjes kant met vaderlandslievende symbolen. Maar wie de ontwerpen van de stukken in de collectie van The Phoebus Foundation tekende en uitvoerde en wie dit oorlogskant precies kocht, kan niet meer worden achterhaald. Wel kunnen we dankzij deze war laces en ook dankzij archiefbronnen en publicaties het uitzonderlijke verhaal van de kantproductie in volle oorlogstijd reconstrueren.
