About the talk
In this lecture and workshop, Department Chair of English Dr. Matthew Ciscel will explore the role, form, and grammar of verbs across the recorded history of the English language. After a brief overview of the key stages and markers of change in English, participants will look at some texts in Contemporary, Early Modern, Middle, and Old English to compare the forms and functions of verbs. Participants will get in on the action by completing some fun (and challenging) worksheets in groups at their tables.
