Alan Bliss

Alan Bliss (1921–1985)  was a noted British philologist. Much of his early work was concerned with Old and Middle English, the history of the English language, and medieval French philology (especially Anglo-Norman) and his later work with Hiberno-English. He was born in London, and attended Finchley Catholic Grammar School, then King's College London, and then Balliol College, Oxford. His academic career began at Oxford but he soon, 1953, gained an appointment as Chair of English at the Royal University of Malta. This was followed by a professorship at the University of Istanbul. But In 1961 he took up an appointment in the Department of Old and Middle English at University College Dublin where he was to remain until the end of his career.[1][2]
