Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the epic Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf as a free verse translation, bringing its thrilling, heroic, and often gruesome narrative into a new light. Set in Scandinavia of the 6th century, the narrative revolves around the Geatish warrior Beowulf, a hero of immense strength and courage, and his battles against the monstrous Grendel, the monstrous Grendel's mother, and a fire-breathing dragon. At the core of the epic is the theme of reputation and honor, as Beowulf's heroic exploits and the praise they earn serve as a source of pride for his people and for himself. The narrative also explores the themes of loyalty, courage, and the inevitability of fate.
