摘要：The purpose of this paper is threefold. First, the origin and development of the structure of the normal line in Germanic alliterative verse is examined in the context of Indo-European metrics (section 1). Second, a set of fundamental metrical properties (including the place and pattern of alliteration) of Germanic verse is explained as reflexes of Indo-European metrical features (section 2). Third, the phonological basis of Germanic metrics as against Old Irish metrics is explored in terms of accent typology (section 3).
