About this book
From Sharon Turner's first attempt in 1805 up to 1903, Chauncey Brewster Tinker gives a historical and critical account of the translating of Beowulf, describing each volume and the text behind it. A second thread traces the history of the poem's text up to Grein's edition of 1859, since until then every editor was also the translator. English versions get the most attention; German, Dutch, Danish, Swedish, French and Italian ones are treated more as bibliography. It was issued in the Yale Studies in English series in 1903, drawn from his doctoral thesis.
