Studies in language change in Bishop Percy's Reliques of ancient English poetry
Glover, Danni. - 2014
Abstract: Danni Lynn Glover, College of Arts, University of Glasgow Abstract of Master's Thesis, Submitted September 2013 Studies in Language Change in Bishop Percy's Reliques of Ancient English Poetry The aim of this thesis is to show the linguistic progression of selected Scottish ballads collected in Bishop Percy's Reliques of Ancient English Poetry. The study primarily involved close reading of Percy's source materials, including his Folio Manuscript (British Library Additional MS. 27879), his letters, and early printed versions of the ballads, mostly provided by his correspondents. This involved the handling of manuscripts and rare books. Close reading of these documents, compared with Percy's first edition, shows that he made significant philological modifications to the ballads in the interest of preserving certain words he deemed to be more ancient or authentic. Furthermore, the thesis hypothesises the reasons for Percy's editing methodologies, and suggests that Percy edited ballads for the motivation of personal ambition, and that his editing philosophy was to synthesise a British identity from ballads which predate Britain. Here, the thesis draws on biographical information on Percy, and contemporary Enlightenment writers and their national identity politics. Ultimately, the thesis hopes to open academic dialogue on Percy as a precursor to the Romantic movement. The author's recommendation is that further study is required, particularly on aspects of nation-building in Percy's oeuvre.
