Daniel Donoghue
This Norton Critical Edition includes: * Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney's poetic translation of the great Anglo-Saxon epic-winner of the Whitbread Prize-along with his translator's introduction. * Detailed explanatory annotations and an introduction to Old English language and prosody by Daniel Donoghue. * More than two dozen visuals, including, new to the Second Edition, a fine selection of objects from the Staffordshire Hoard. * A rich array of Anglo-Saxon and early northern civilization materials, providing student readers with Beowulf's cultural and historical context. * Nine critical interpretations, three of them new to the Second Edition. * A glossary of personal names and a selected bibliography. About the Series Read by more than 12 million students over fifty-five years, Norton Critical Editions set the standard for apparatus that is right for undergraduate readers. The three-part format-annotated text, contexts, and criticism-helps students to better understand, analyze, and appreciate the literature, while opening a wide range of teaching possibilities for instructors. Whether in print or in digital format, Norton Critical Editions provide all the resources students need.
