Prosody in Medieval English and Norse reconstructs aspects of linguistic prosody from the medieval records of two closely related languages: English and Norse.

Autorenporträt
Nelson Goering grew up in the Ocooch 'Mountains' of southwestern Wisconsin, and has a DPhil from the University of Oxford. He has held a British Academy funded postdoctoral fellowship on Norse Influence on Middle English Prosody, in the course of which he published a number of articles on early Germanic foot structure and metrics. He is currently at Ghent University, working on his FWO-funded research project Little Words in Early Germanic. This project combines evidence from metrics, orthography, and sound change to better understand the synchronic and diachronic dimensions of phonological clitic developments in the early Germanic languages.
