The study introduces a new methodology--lexomics, the use of computer-aided statistical analysis to identify influence--and integrates research from cognitive psychology and evolutionary biology with traditional, philological approaches to literature, specifically the Anglo-Saxon poems of second codicological booklet of the Exeter Book. An example of "hard interdisciplinarity," Tradition and Influence makes technically sound contributions to Anglo-Saxon studies, oral tradition, evolutionary epistemology and cultural theory"-- Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Introduction: Influence and Tradition -- A Theory of Influence -- Influence and its Detection with Lexomic Analysis -- Cultural Selection Pressure: Mnemonic and Cognitive Aesthetics -- Adaptive Landscapes, Cognitive Prototypes, and Genre -- Application of the Theory : Genre and Adaptive Radiation in Poems of the Exeter Book -- Authorship, Authors, and The Anxiety of Influence -- Conclusion: This View of Culture. 650 0 $a English literature $y Old English, ca. 450-1100 $x Theory, etc. $x Theory, etc. 650 0 $a English language $y Old English, ca. 450-1100 $v Texts. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh88001059 650 0 $a Civilization, Anglo-Saxon, in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh94003765 650 0 $a Civilization, Medieval, in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh94003778 651 0 $a England $x Civilization $y To 1066. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85043273 630 00 $a Exeter book. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50079632 650 0 $a Memetics. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh96011227 650 7 $a LITERARY CRITICISM $x Medieval. $2 bisacsh 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20171227044151.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DC402FC4EAD411E7BA71765497128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
