So he also used it on other occasions, in other works?

I believe so. See my previous post about the roundaround board
of the firststuffs.

Not to my knowledge. He would, if I remember correctly, use the
same technique (translate any Latin- or Greek-derived word into
English or Danish or Old Norse) from time to time in other
stories.

OK, I was confused for a while. "Anglic" is his term for the lingua franca used in -at least- the Van Rijn stories. It was fully translated to contemporary English for publication.

Correct. So far as I know, "Uncleftish Beholding" was a one-off.

Okay.

What my wife has in mind is several other "constructed languages"
such as Hildigard of Bingen's "Lingua Ignota". She was wondering if
Anderson has had anyone collect the useages of his Anglic (my mistake
to have called it "Anglish") and published them.

Did he actually show any Anglic? I thought that it was all "translated"

My understanding is that Anderson applied the rules of linguistic
change to Anglo-Saxon (aka Old English) and left out the influence of
Norman French. The result is a language with fewer words from
"Romance" (Latin based) languages and retaining the grammatical
inflections of Old English. Much like modern German, Dutch, usw which
has 'different' articles ('the', 'a') depending on Gender and Case.
(that whole Der, Die, Das, Ein, Eine, Ein thing. e.g.:
The fish. Der Fisch.
A fish Ein Fisch.
One fish, two fishes. Ein Fisch, zwei Fische.
Red fish, blue fish. Roter Fisch, blauer Fisch.
Red fishes, blue fishes. Rote Fische, blaue Fische.
My fish, your fish. Mein Fisch, dein Fisch.
The bowl of my fish. Die Schale mit meinem Fisch.
The cats ate the fish. Die Katzen haben die Fische gefressen.
A cat ate my fish Eine Katze hat meinen Fisch gefressen.
Your cats ate my fishes. Deine Katzen haben meine Fische gefressen.
etc. usw.)

So, without the influence of the Frenchified Norse from 1066
onwards, you could have an "Anglic" which _might_ have retained more
of the Saxon grammar, complete with grammatical inflections,
pre-fixes, suffixes, different articles, und so weiter.

I realize that in novels (or the Moving Pictures), it really
doesn't matter what language the characters are speaking, for the
reader / audience to understand the dialogue it must be 'translated'
into the contemporary target language, I.e., English. I started
working on a conlang where the "genders" are animal, plant, or stone.
Plus "infixes" - 'to (adverb) verb'. After I retire (aging) I shall
resume. Maybe. But any dialogue in a story will have to be
"translated" into English for my reader.

Meanwhile, The Wife wants to work out where English might go as it
transitions more to being an Isolating language, as well as a couple
variants for use by trolls, elves and a third group. Also "Someday".

I seem to remember off-hand references to Anglic in Star
Trek (TOS) and a little googoling shows that term was used
in some of the novels. "Vulcan's Forge" is one. One wonders
if a "harrumph' from Harrison or his agent may have resulted
in that going down the memory (alpha) hole?

apparently is... the "Federation Standard" language
in _Star Trek_, but there are half a dozen other words
for it. It may be essentially English, but since French is
reported as no longer used in the twenty-fourth century,
it is not "comme il faut" to say so.

The name "Anglish" is mentioned so maybe "Anglic"
is the adjective.

In James White's "Sector General" setting, speech
translators are used, and a written language called
"Universal" exists alongside single-species languages.
I think the symbols in which it is written can vary,
depending on the sensory preference of a reader,
but an edition in, say, scent patterns would be
different from print or Braille. But would it have to
be... In one story when the translator is broken, they
resort to inter-species communication by doctors'
handwriting.

Although Jean-Luc Picard still has some acquaintance
with this dead language.

This reminds me of reading one of the Lensman novels;
after several references to the characters speaking a
language called "Standard Interplanetary", we have dialogue
including at least one pun proving that this language is
what we know as English.

There are puns that work in several languages, like "Where do cats
go when they die? To purrrgatory", which apparently works
for English, Spanish, Portugese, Italian and French.

And Standard Interplanetary could also have partially been based
on English, so that puns can be translated easily.

There is always the issue of defining the "Current" language as
"not the English you knew in 1950/2020."
My Old English is not up to it, so you will just have to imagine a
book written in MVI set in the far future (MDC or later) where the
people speak a form of "Anglo-Saxon" which is quite different from
what "we" know the language to be.

But left in some of the traces of Norman Danish. "Ymirstuff," e.g.

The Danes started moving in in, when was it, the ninth century?
and after coming in and raiding and going away again, they started
settling down.

In Robert MacNeil's _The Story of English, T. A. Shippey points
out that many of the roots in OE and ON were very similar, but
their inflectional endings were different. So Saxons and Danes
living near each other started talking with naked stems, which is
why English has so few inflectional endings today.

Also cool. Back in the sixties, when I invented a small Vulcan
conlang, I included evidentials, obligatory morphemes that
specify where the speaker go his information (saw it, heard it,
heard tell of it, heard an old tale about it, dreamed it).

I'm sitting on a rough draft of a fantasy in which the elves
speak a language full of sibilants, so that my protagonist (whose
first language is Frankish) thinks it sounds like a snake taught
to speak like an owl. :) But I didn't endeavor to make up any
of it except a few proper names.

No, no, my mistake. "Anglish" is a good term. It's only problem is that is was similar to "Anglic" which Anderson used for a background universal language. If anything, it adds to my list of things to do with a time machine: suggest Anderson use some other term (Standard, Interlac, Basic) for that language to save Anglish for his eventual "Uncleftish Beholding."

I knew Poul Anderson well. One of his salient characteristics
was modesty. He would not have thought anyone would be so
detail-oriented (read, nit-picky) to go over his invented
vocabulary choices and ask why this one didn't mesh with that
one.

When someone pointed out something in any of his stories that
didn't mesh with known physics, he would shrug and say, "Y'know,
the name is Anderson, not God."

Not to my knowledge. Back when it was printed (nearly fifty
years ago) I got out a large sheet of paper and filled in the
roundaround board of the firststuffs. (This was before we had
children!) Unfortunately, it got lost sometime when we were
moving house, and I don't think I could reconstruct it now.

I invented the names that Poul hadn't supplied by using his own
technique: translate them out of Latin or Greek into English,
trim to fit.

I forget what I used for the four elements named after the little

fiction room; it was on Hal's desk, buried in 3x5" cards.)
The essay under discussion was originally titled "Uncleavish
Truethinking," and was published in ... well, I'll quote it,
because it gives a few Anglish forms that don't appear in the
essay itself.

Nitpick: Christianity was still common in the west, while Northumbria's population had a substantial Christian element, due to Irish missionaries (our SF connection, of course, being De Camp's "The Wheels
of If").

St Augustine re-established the Catholic church, thereby ensuring, as it turned out,
almost a thousand years of revenue for Rome, and forever altering the calculation
of the date of Easter in the UK.

Despite the invasions, Roman Britain seems to have survived and even expanded economically for
some decades, due in part to a lack of Roman taxation.

Steven Baxter portrays this to some degree in the first two hundred pages of his novel
"Coalescent". I enjoyed the non-SF part of that book more than most of his SF.

It did quite well until sometime in the latter half of the 5th
century. There were (so far as we can tell) two major revolts by
the "Saxon" (there were several tribes) mercenaries, both of which
resulted in a mass migration of people with the means from Britain
to Amorica (now Brittany, for obvious reasons). Many of these were
skilled artisans and craftsmen, and they took a good deal of the
Roman economy with them. That, and the practical changes needed to
suppress the ex-mercenaries/now-invaders (which involved fortifying
cities, and the end of pax romana, was when it ceased being Roman
Britain and started to become Wales and Cornwall (though both names
were some time off).

Some were already there, and had been for generations, as Roman
auxiliaries. No source that I have read gives a firm estimate of their numbers,
though. Might have been tens of thousands - Roman soldiers were not allowed
to marry, but that didn't stop them from having families.

Might also have been a thousand or so, if most left when the Romans did.

You're thinking of Chalice Well, in Glastonbury. I spent several years at
a nearby boarding school.

There's a lot of legends in the area. In one, Joseph is said to have brought the boy Jesus to Britain with him. This is referenced in the hymn 'Jerusalem'. After the crucifixion, Joseph is supposed to have returned with the Holy Grail. There he supposedly built the first Christian church in Britain.

For proof of Christianity in Roman Britain, the 3rd mosaic in this article clinches it.

Christianty came to Britain pretty early, along with heresy (they
didn't invent Pelogianism, but they certainly embraced it). And in
the Celtic/Roman population, it was continuously present. After
Rome abandoned them, it sort of split into a separate branch
sometimes referred to as the Celtic Church. Basically (and horribly
oversimplying), it remained much the same as the Roman Church
developed into a recognizable Catholic Church. The reunification
came after (or as) the English were Christianized. It's not well
documented, because it was, astonishingly, very peaceful, as the
biships on both sides debated the theological issues like grown
ups, and agreed on who was right. (Catholics came out on top on the
form of the tonsure and the method of computing the date of Easter,
the Celtics on private vs public confession.)

Danke.

"Chronicle" is a bit Latinate, isn't it? hat would the Angle, Saxons &
Jutes have called a chronicle?

Saga?

Would they have called it anything before the Romans showed up and
introduced them to the concept?

Not sure what the Britons would have called it. Most cultures
have the "history", be it in ballad or poem, or a "written" version
(which may not be letters, but images of the year's significant
events.)

True. There are all those Aztec codices, which do have some
writing, but only to identify the main characters.
