Description

Beowulf: A Verse Translation by Daniel Donoghue This Norton Critical Edition brings together a rich collection of resources to help you understand the epic Anglo-Saxon poem Beowulf. The edition includes Seamus Heaney's poetic translation, along with his translator's introduction, as well as detailed explanatory annotations and an introduction to Old English language and prosody by Daniel Donoghue. The book also features over two dozen visuals, including objects from the Staffordshire Hoard, to provide context for the poem. The edition includes a range of critical interpretations, three of which are new to the Second Edition, as well as a glossary of personal names and a selected bibliography. This Norton Critical Edition is part of a well-established series that has been used by over 12 million students over 55 years. The three-part format - annotated text, contexts, and criticism - helps students to better understand, analyze, and appreciate the literature.
