Latin Riddle Collections in Early-Medieval England
Original language description
The literary riddle was quite common feature in the Early-Medieval England. It was written mostly as poetry whose language was not only Anglo-Saxon, but also Latin. There are four authors of those Latin riddles, who we know by name: Aldhelm of Malmesbury, Eusebius, Tatuine and Boniface. Their collectiones aenigmatum are often mentioned together because they survived mostly in the same manuscripts. Even the latest edition by Fr. Glorie as a part of CCSL (Corpus Christianorum Series Latina), with order number 133, presents these collections side by side. The literary scholars compare riddle collections of Aldhelm, Tatuine, Eusebius and Boniface with Late Antique collection called Aenigmata Symphosii. In my paper I offer another point of view on the relationship among all the collections, especially negation of widely accepted connection between Eusebius’s and Tatuine’s riddles.
