The story of Noah's Flood is one of the Bible's most popular stories, and other flood myths are preserved by cultures across the world. This book presents the first comprehensive study of the incorporation of the Flood myth into the literary and historical imagination of the Anglo-Saxons, ranging from the works of Bede to Beowulf.
