| adam_text | This book suggests that the Old English epic Beowulfwas, composed in the winter
of
826—7
as a requiem for King Beomwulf of Mercia on behalf of
Wiglaf,
the ealdorman
who succeeded him. The place of composition is given as the minster of Breedon on
the Hill on the Leicestershire-Derbyshire border and the poet is named as the abbot,
Eanmund. As well as pinpointing the poem s place and date of composition, Richard
North raises some old questions relating to the poet s influences from Vergil and from
living Danes. Norse analogues are discussed in order to identify how the poet changed
his heroic sources while four episodes from Beowulf art shown to be reworked from
passages in Vergil s Aeneid. One chapter assesses how Beowulf s Latin sources might
correspond with what is known of Breedon s long-lost library while another seeks to
explain Danish mythology in Beowulf by arguing that Breedon hosted a meeting with
Danish Vikings in
809.
This fascinating and challenging new study combines careful
detective work with meticulous literary analysis to form a case that no future
investigation will be able to ignore.
Richard North is Reader in English at University College London.
