Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. Beowulf is the oldest piece of writing that we have in the English language. It is an epic poem, composed some 1500 years ago. This book is a study of Beowulf, the poem. The author does not presume to tell us what the poem means, but rather what has been said about the poem throughout history. Beowulf is an epic poem written in an old English language that survives today in only one manuscript. The poem's central story revolves around a hero who travels from southern Sweden to help the king of the Danes, whose mead hall has been attacked by a monster known as Grendel. Beowulf ultimately succeeds in killing the monster, but soon after must face Grendelâs vengeful mother. The book describes how Beowulfâs journey pits him against various monsters and culminates in a bloody battle with a dragon that results in the heroâs death.
