DESCRIPTION:Philology arrived in English as the name of a goddess\; by 191
 1 it had become a synonym for 'dry-as-dust' linguistic pedantry and was ex
 plicitly excluded from the remit of Cambridge's newly-established Professo
 rship in English. In the present century\, philology has found new champio
 ns on both sides of the Atlantic. But can philological practice bridge the
  gap between the prevailing paradigms in historical linguistics and (liter
 ary) history?
