Beowulf, new translation by John McNamara; Barnes and Noble Classics

Description: Beowulf is a heroic poem considered the highest achievement of Old English literature and the earliest European vernacular epic. It tells the story of the Scandinavian hero Beowulf, who gains fame as a young man by vanquishing the monster Grendel and Grendel’s mother; later, as an aging king, he kills a dragon but dies soon after, honored and lamented. Beowulf belongs metrically, stylistically, and thematically to the Germanic heroic tradition but shows a distinct Christian influence.
