The narrative follows Beowulf, a Scandinavian hero who battles the monster Grendel and later confronts Grendel's mother to save the Danes. His journey continues as he becomes king and faces a dragon fifty years later. The poem intricately weaves Norse traditions, kinship obligations, and the tension between paganism and emerging Christianity, prompting scholarly debates on its religious perspective. This edition features a preface and annotations by translator J. Lesslie Hall, enhancing its status as a cornerstone of Anglo-Saxon literature.
