Abstrak
In a way, all Medieval Studies are philology-centered, that is, they focus on the written or spoken word as found in manuscripts or other media (epigraphs, etc.). But philology itself, especially in the Germanic context, does not fare well any longer. Nevertheless, some researchers make a valid effort to uphold this academic discipline, even though it might be more difficult to define it today with the widening of historical linguistics and related fields. The present volume, competently edited by Tina Boyer and Heiko Wiggers, grew out of sessions at the MLA annual conferences and combines a range of philological topics some of which pertain to the Middle Ages, others fall beyond that chronological divide and can only be touched upon here.
