The conceptual framework of pride in the literature of early medieval England

骄傲的概念在早期英语的教会和世俗著作中占有突出地位。尽管有如此丰富的表现，批评家们还没有达到一个完整的，连贯的理解是什么骄傲意味着早期英语作家（特别是关于白话诗）。目前对这一概念的批判性理解的局限性可能归因于几个原因：一些研究基于对布道的选择性使用，而另一些研究则考察了不合时宜的类似物。另一个值得注意的局限性是对古英语材料的评论的普遍依赖，而忽略了大量的盎格鲁-拉丁语语料库和更广泛的双语环境。该项目通过提出两个核心问题来解决文学中的这一差距：早期英语写作中自豪感的概念化范围是什么？对这个范围的系统理解如何能够对早期英语诗歌进行更细致入微的解释？为了回答这些问题，我首先整理了一份早期英语散文中自豪感的表现形式清单。然后，我将分析骄傲的概念化的范围，注意到周围的语言环境证明的例子和更广泛的文化（神学）的理解共享的早期英语受过教育的阶级。这种结合语言学和文化学的分析将指导我对古英语和盎格鲁-拉丁语诗歌中骄傲表征的仔细阅读。这一研究框架集中并澄清了早期英语散文和诗歌中骄傲的概念化，从而系统地阐明了现存盎格鲁-撒克逊语言中表现出的独特和分散的不同的骄傲描述（例如Schabram;低），文学（例如Caie; Doane;果园）和神学（例如麦克丹尼尔）奖学金。同时，它也建立了古英语和英拉丁语语料库之间关于骄傲主题的复杂联系，这反过来又是重建早期英国少数民族专业教会文化及其在双语媒介中的传播和衍生的重要基石该项目还提高了我们对使用多种语文对文化发展的重要性的认识。该项目的一个新发现是，在一个多语言环境中，所传播的知识体系很难通过仅以一种有关语言保存的传统来遵循。因此，在理解当代（和中世纪）多语言社会的文学结构和文化环境时，不仅要考虑使用的不同语言，更重要的是要考虑传统融合的不同和微妙的方式。

The concept of pride figures prominently in ecclesiastical and secular writings of the early English. Despite this abundance of representations, critics have yet to achieve a complete, coherent understanding of what pride means for early English writers (especially as regards vernacular poetry). The limitation of the current critical understanding of the concept may be attributed to several causes: some studies base their theological arguments upon selective uses of homilies, while others examine analogues that are anachronistic. Another notable limitation is the general reliance of commentary on Old English materials, leaving the considerable Anglo-Latin corpus and the broader bilingual environment overlooked.The project addresses this gap in literature by asking two central questions: what is the range of conceptualizations of pride in early English writing? How does a systematic understanding of this range allow a more nuanced interpretation of early English poetry? To answer these questions, I first compile a list of representations of pride in early English prose. Then, I will analyze the range of conceptualizations of pride, paying attention to both the linguistic context surrounding the attested instances and the broader cultural (theological) understanding shared by the educated class of the early English. This combined linguistic-cultural analysis will then guide my close reading of representations of pride in selected Old English and Anglo-Latin verse.This research framework centralizes and clarifies the early English conceptualizations of pride in both prose and poetry, and thus illuminates systematically the different accounts of pride which appear idiosyncratic and scattered across extant Anglo-Saxon linguistic (e.g. Schabram; Low), literary (e.g. Caie; Doane; Orchard) and theological (e.g. McDaniel) scholarship. It also establishes the intricate connections between the Old English and Anglo-Latin corpora in relation to the theme of pride, which in turn serves as an important building block in reconstructing the professional minority ecclesiastical culture, as well as its transmission and ramification in a bilingual medium, in early England (see, e.g. Lapidge).The project also improves our understanding on the significance of multilingualism on cultural development. One emerging finding of the project is that in a multilingual environment, the intellectual regime transmitted hardly follows through the traditions preserved in only one of the languages concerned. Thus, in understanding the literary constructs and cultural environment of contemporary (and medieval) multilingual societies, it is essential to consider not only the different languages in use, but more importantly the different and subtle ways in which the traditions are integrated.
