Beowulf is an epic poem that tells the story of a hero named Beowulf who battles monsters and dragons in order to protect his people. The poem is set in Scandinavia during the 6th century and is written in Old English. The story begins with the arrival of Beowulf to the land of the Danes, where he offers to fight the monster Grendel who has been attacking and killing the people in the mead hall. Beowulf successfully defeats Grendel and his mother, but later in life, he must face his greatest challenge a dragon that is terrorizing his own people. The poem explores themes of heroism, loyalty, and the importance of community. Beowulf is considered one of the most important works of Anglo-Saxon literature and has influenced many other works of fiction and film.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.

I found this book on the discount shelves of a local used book store.
