Phrasal Prepositional Verbs (table)Phrasal Prepositional Verbs (table)

Phrasal-prepositional verbs are made up of three parts: a verb, an adverb particle and a preposition. They are always transitive (have a direct object) and are often used in informal contexts. The adverb particle and the preposition cannot be separated, with the exception of the following verbs, which take a direct object after the verb : fix someone up with something , fob someone off with something , let someone in on something , put something down to something , put someone up to something, take something out on someone.

Direct Speech in Beowulf and Other Old English Narrative Poems

Direct Speech in Beowulf and Other Old English Narrative PoemsSome of the most celebrated passages of Old English poetry are speeches: Beowulf and Unferth's verbal contest, Hrothgar's words of advice, Satan's laments, Juliana's words of defiance, etc. Yet Direct Speech, as a stylistic device, has remained largely under-examined and under-theorized in studies of the corpus. As a consequence, many analyses are unduly influenced by anachronistic conceptions of Direct Speech, leading to problematic interpretations, not least concerning irony and implicit characterisation. This book uses linguistic theories to reassess the role of Direct Speech in Old English narrative poetry.
