'A place there is where liquid honey drops like dew'. The landscape of Little Downham, Cambridgeshire, in the twelfth century?

Christopher Taylor

Landscape History, 2010, vol. 31, issue 2, 5-23

Abstract: This paper and that which follows are published together to illustrate how two scholars in very different fields can produce entirely different interpretations of an early twelfth-century poem. Using traditional historical evidence Christopher Taylor fits the poetic descriptions into the contemporary landscape. Catherine Clarke approaches the poem from a literary perspective using textual analysis. Both methods are equally valid, and each might be seen as enhancing the other.
