Tropes and Figures in Anglo-Saxon Prose is a book written by James Waddell Tupper and originally published in 1897. The book is a scholarly examination of the use of rhetorical devices in Anglo-Saxon prose, including figures of speech such as metaphors, similes, and hyperbole, as well as more complex tropes such as irony, personification, and synecdoche. Tupper provides detailed analysis and examples of each device, drawing on a wide range of Anglo-Saxon texts from both religious and secular sources. The book is aimed at students and scholars of Old English literature and language, and provides a valuable resource for those interested in the history of English rhetoric and the development of literary techniques in the Anglo-Saxon period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
