Book Description
This book presents the complete Old English text of Beowulf, the most celebrated poem of the Anglo-Saxon era, in short sections followed by verse translations and extensive commentaries. Above all, it makes the anonymous poet’s extraordinary literary achievement accessible to interested modern readers who are not familiar with the language he employs with such uncanny power.
