Sinopsis

Unique and beautiful, Beowulf brings to life a society of violence and honor, fierce warriors and bloody battles, deadly monsters and famous swords. Written by an unknown poet in about the eighth century, this masterpiece of Anglo-Saxon literature transforms legends, myth, history, and ancient songs into the richly colored tale of the hero Beowulf, the mother, and a treasure-hoarding dragon. The earliest surviving epic poem in any modern European language, Beowulf is a stirring portrait of a heroic world, somber, vast, and magnificent.
