Welcome. This site has three main sections: classes, resources, and grammar.

Classes has your course syllabus, related readings, and links. Resources includes a limited help section, class policies, guidelines about writing papers, advice about taking my exams, and so forth. Handouts has most of the course handouts, charts, and pre-publication articles in one spot. The grammar section includes Professor Michael Drout's King Alfred's Grammar, an on-line introduction to Old English. There is also a detailed grammar chart, and the beginnings of a Natural Language Parser for Old English.

In all cases, this website is an integral part of your classes. It is not an optional supplement. If you cannot regularly access the web, please let me know. Please read this warning if you are taking a course from me.
