Description
Beowulf is an epic poem that tells the story of a legendary hero named Beowulf. The poem was written in Old English and is believed to have been composed between the 8th and 11th centuries. The author is unknown, and the poem is considered one of the most important works of Anglo-Saxon literature.The story takes place in Scandinavia and begins with the Danish king Hrothgar, whose kingdom is being terrorized by a monster named Grendel. Beowulf, a Geatish warrior, arrives to help Hrothgar and offers to fight Grendel. Beowulf defeats Grendel by ripping off his arm, and Grendel flees to his lair to die.However, the story does not end there. Grendel's mother seeks revenge and attacks the Danes, and Beowulf goes to her underwater lair to fight her. He kills her with a sword he finds in her lair, and returns to the surface with her head.Beowulf returns to his homeland and becomes king of the Geats. However, years later, a dragon begins to terrorize his kingdom, and Beowulf sets out to defeat it. He is successful in killing the dragon, but is mortally wounded in the process.The poem explores themes of heroism, loyalty, and the struggle between good and evil. It is also notable for its use of alliteration and kennings, poetic devices that were common in Old English literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
