- At 414 pages, the book presents research undertaken over a period of five years. It examines over 4,000 instances of participles, and the passages in which they appear. Due to the archaic nature of the language, and the deliberate obscurity of the compositions, the analysis requires a deep, detailed, and multi-faceted approach incorporating historical linguistics, philology, synchronic linguistics and cultural and historical angles. There is possibly a few pages of overlap with a paper on negated participles submitted for the 2014 REF, but the material in the book is a more recent and advanced analysis
