Book Summary
About the Book: Beowulf: A Translation and Commentary, together with Sellic
Spell
The translation of Beowulf by J.R.R. Tolkien was an early work, very distinctive
in its mode, completed in 1926: he returned to it later to make hasty
corrections, but seems never to have considered its publication.This edition is
twofold, for there exists an illuminating commentary on the text of the poem by
the translator himself, in the written form of a series of lectures given at
Oxford in the 1930s; and from these lectures a substantial selection has been
made, to form also a commentary on the translation in this book.From his
creative attention to detail
