Beowulf is by far the most popular text of the medieval world
taught in American classrooms, at both the high school and
undergraduate levels. More students than ever before wrestle with
Grendel in the darkness of Heorot or venture into the dragon’s
barrow for gold and glory. This increase of attention and interest
in the Old English epic has led to a myriad of new and varying
translations of the poem published every year, the production of
several mainstream film and television adaptations, and many
graphic novel versions. More and more teachers in all sorts of
classrooms, with varying degrees of familiarity and training are
called upon to bring this ancient poem before their students. This
practical guide to teaching Beowulf in the twenty-first century
combines scholarly research with pedagogical technique, imparting a
picture of how the poem can be taught in contemporary American
institutions.
