Beowulf: An Anglo Saxon Poem And The Fight At Finnsburg is a book that contains two epic poems from Anglo Saxon literature. The first poem, Beowulf, tells the story of a hero named Beowulf who travels to Denmark to help King Hrothgar defeat a monster named Grendel. Beowulf also battles Grendel's mother and a dragon, ultimately sacrificing his own life to protect his people. The second poem, The Fight at Finnsburg, is a fragmentary poem that tells the story of a battle between the Danes and the Frisians. The book is translated by James M. Garnett, and includes notes and an introduction to provide context for the poems. It is a classic work of literature and an important piece of Anglo Saxon history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
