About this book
"Beówulf: an Anglo-Saxon poem. II. The fight at Finnsburh: a fragment" is an Old English epic poem composed between the 8th and early 11th centuries. The story follows Beowulf, a Geatish hero who travels to Denmark to save King Hrothgar's mead hall from the monster Grendel. After defeating Grendel and his vengeful mother, Beowulf returns home and eventually becomes king. Fifty years later, he faces his final challenge: a deadly dragon. This anonymous work blends pagan Scandinavian legend with Christian elements, creating one of the most important texts in Old English literature.
