"Mitchell and Robinson's Beowulf: An Edition has all of the
features one hopes to find in a classroom edition: glossary, notes,
copious but clear explanatory material. But it is more than an
edition. It is a distillation of decades of affectionate attention
to the poem by two of the top scholars in the field. From the
smallest of details like punctuation to the broadest
interpretations, Mitchell and Robinson display an abiding respect
and admiration for the magnificent artistry of Beowulf."
Daniel Donoghue, Harvard University
