- Abstract:
- Read 8 January 2016 in Austin, TX, at the annual meeting of the Modern Language Association, session number 218, “Quantity in English Verse: Linguistic and Neuroscience-Based Challenges to the Accentual Paradigm.” This short historiographical paper was the half-time show in our roundtable—an interlude between the session’s more substantive linguistic contributions. It draws from my article “The Accentual Paradigm in Early English Metrics,” which appeared in the October 2015 issue of The Journal of English and Germanic Philology.
