A foundation stone of European literature, linking Norse, Celtic and Arthurian myth Beowulf is also a terrific read! Beowulf, is an epic poem probably written in the 900s CE. It tells of events 600 years before in vivid detail, where the hero Beowulf is entreated to help a King defend his halls against the monster Grendel. The poem was written in old English, about a hero of the Goths (the early Swedish people) who came to help the King of the Danes. Its vivid accounts bear some historical evidence, and serves to influence heroic literature of Europe and the modern era. 10 b/w illustrations
