A Guide to Rianar Runes
Author: Errol Coder
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781468031010
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
The Rianar are used for inscriptions of a magical nature and also for writing the languages of the Celtic Elves. The phonetic qualities of the set presented here have been adapted to apply to English phonetics as well as Elvish. This makes the Rianar better adapted to writing English than, for example, the Futhark or the Celtic Ogham, which evolved within the phonetics of Norse and Gaelic respectively. Discussion of Elvishlanguages and dialects is beyond the scope of this book. Yet to fully understand the Elvish runes, one must have some sense of Elvish cultures and the pantheon of great spirits with whom they have their spiritual relations and practice. Much of the material presented here is original research derived from folkloric history.

Runes and Roman Letters in Anglo-Saxon Manuscripts
Author: Victoria Symons
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110491923
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 245
Book Description
This book presents the first comprehensive study of Anglo-Saxon manuscript texts containing runic letters. To date there has been no comprehensive study of these works in a single volume, although the need for such an examination has long been recognized. This is in spite of a growing academic interest in the mise-en-page of early medieval manuscripts. The texts discussed in this study include Old English riddles and elegies, the Cynewulfian poems, charms, Solomon and Saturn I, and the Old English Rune Poem. The focus of the discussion is on the literary analysis of these texts in their palaeographic and runological contexts. Anglo-Saxon authors and scribes did not, of course, operate within a vacuum, and so these primary texts are considered alongside relevant epigraphic inscriptions, physical objects, and historical documents. Victoria Symons argues that all of these runic works are in various ways thematically focused on acts of writing, visual communication, and the nature of the written word. The conclusion that emerges over the course of the book is that, when encountered in the context of Anglo-Saxon manuscripts, runic letters consistently represent the written word in a way that Roman letters do not.
