Declining or Waning
- Traditional Folklore and Oral Literature:
There has been a noticeable decline in papers focusing on traditional folklore and oral literature, suggesting a shift towards more textual and linguistic analysis rather than oral traditions. - General Studies on Individual Authors:
While individual authorship remains relevant, there is less emphasis on broad studies of individual medieval authors, signaling a move towards more comparative and thematic explorations. - Studies on Medieval Manuscript Culture:
The focus on manuscript culture, although still important, seems to be decreasing, possibly as more emphasis is placed on digital humanities and textual analysis. - Historical Linguistics in Isolation:
