5.0 out of 5 stars Anthology of Best Work to 1960, June 2, 2007
By 
T. Kearns (Washington, DC) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Anthology Of Beowulf Criticism (Paperback)
This book should not have a review of three stars, so I am writing a few words to bump up the rating. Essentially, this book contains the best of Beowulf criticism up to 1960. The previous reviewer does not seem to understand the value of scholarship, and I do not believe he even represents the average informed layman. Anyone with an interest in Beowulf, a serious interest, will find these articles enlightening and well worth reading.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent collection of articles on Beowulf, June 6, 2007
By 
This review is from: Anthology Of Beowulf Criticism (Paperback)
I actually had the opportunity to study with Prof. Nicholson, and his enthusiasm for Anglo Saxon poetry, and Beowulf in particular, carries through this anthology. Quite complete and balanced through its original publication date in the '60s, it would be an excellent companion to the Seamus Heaney verse translation of the poem.

3.0 out of 5 stars A bit dry, March 22, 2006
This review is from: Anthology Of Beowulf Criticism (Paperback)
The criticism in this anthology is a bit dry. I would not recommend this book unless you want to learn all there is to know about Beowulf. Some of the articles are interesting if you are well-versed with Beowulf and its history, otherwise, you will be lost. I think the article about the Sutton-Hoo find was the most interesting piece.
