The most revered work composed in Old English, Beowulf is a
landmark of European literature. This handbook supplies a wealth of
insights into all major aspects of this wondrous poem and its
scholarly tradition and offers both a rapid survey of trends in the
study of Beowulf and a more sustained exploration of selected
problems. Each chapter begins with a brief summary of its contents
followed by a chronology of the most important books and articles
on the particular topic it treats. The book has been written to
accommodate the needs of a broad audience, from non-specialists who
wish simply to read and enjoy Beowulf, to scholars at work on their
own research, and students of Old English. This is a volume in the
acclaimed series Exeter Medieval Texts and Studies, and will prove
an indispensable guide for many years to come. The acclaimed and
comprehensive 1988 edition of Beowulf edited by C. L. Wrenn and W.
F. Bolton is also available in the series.
