Beowulf is the greatest surviving work of literature in Old English unparalleled in its epic grandeur & scope It tells the story of the heroic Beowulf & of his battles first with the monster Grendel who has laid waste to the great hall of the Danish king Hrothgar then with Grendel&s avenging mother & finally with a dragon that threatens to devastate his homeland Through its blend of myth & history Beowulf vividly evokes a twilight world in which men & supernatural forces live side by side & it celebrates the endurance of the human spirit in a transient world " Alexander&s translation is marked by a conviction that it is possible to be both ambitious & faithful & communicates the poem with a care which goes beyond fidelity-to-meaning & reaches fidelity of implication May it go on to another half-million copies"
