A Creeping Thing

Newly released PhD, ‘A Creeping Thing’: the Motif of the Serpent in Anglo-Saxon England (2017).

“This thesis aims to survey and interpret the symbolic role of the serpent in a number of different, clearly defined contexts and look for common associations and continuities between them. In finding these continuities, it will propose a underlying, fundamental symbolic meaning for the image of the serpent in Anglo-Saxon England.”
