Beowulf

This reprint of Morgan’s popular and well-respected 1952 modern English translation of the Anglo-Saxon epic captures a taut expression of the poem’s themes of danger, voyaging, displacement, loyalty, and loss. Morgan provides a fluid, modern voice from this medieval masterwork while retaining a clear authenticity, making it highly accessible to the contemporary reader.

Reviews of Beowulf

Mr. Morgan is as versatile as he is inventive . . . the qualities that most appeal are a capacity for celebration . . . and an unsentimental humaneness, a considering sympathy. "Times Literary Supplement""
