Always helpful: a Bibliography

Beowulf bibliography

Looking to read more about Beowulf and / or Grendel? This is my personal bibliography, containing someof the classic works on Beowulf. To name a few: Dorothy Whitelock’s The Audience of Beowulf is a great read, incisive and not too long either. Niles’ Beowulf: The Poem and Its Tradition is full of clever observations – and a few lesser ones I’m afraid.

Also, check out James Earl’s Thinking about Beowulf, he’s a master at making you… yes, think.

Well, enjoy, I guess!
