✏Beowulf Book Summary : The classic story of Beowulf, hero and dragon-slayer, appears here in a new translation accompanied by genealogical charts, historical summaries, and a glossary of proper names. These and other documents sketching some of the cultural forces behind the poem's final creation will help readers see Beowulf as an exploration of the politics of kingship and the psychology of heroism, and as an early English meditation on the bridges and chasms between the pagan past and the Christian present. A generous sample of other modern versions of Beowulf sheds light on the process of translating the poem.

✏English Historical Linguistics Book Summary :
Students' entrance ticket into class is the handout that explains today's activity and lists the nine stations.At the bell, I briefly explain each station, although I have put directions at each station. First Stop: Blood Feuds in Beowulf and Beyond: I tell students that they will explore the top 15 blood feuds in our nation's history and draw parallels to Beowulf. Second Stop: Beowulf: Christian vs. Pagan: Students read lines from the epic and create a T chart that identifies the diction referring to pagan ideas on one side and those referring to Christian ideas on the other.
Third Stop: “Did Britain Wreck the World?”: This is a Newsweek article excerpt that lists some legacies from British Imperialism. Students discuss and respond to the question the article poses in a short paragraph. Fourth Stop: Beowulf: The Case of the First Three Lines: Students determine which translation they prefer and explain why.
Additionally, they compare and contrast the various ways three translators translate various phrasing from the epic. Students complete graphic organizers for each of the activities. Fifth Stop: Translating Old English into Our New English: Just Write It!: On one side of the paper is Old English, but before looking on the back for the English equivalent, students 'translate' the Old English based on their 'educated guesses'!. Sixth Stop: Who or Whom?
That is the Question: This is a grammar exercise not directly connected to Beowulf, but it is important that students understand grammar for both reading and writing purposes. Seventh Stop: Alliteration Application: Students review alliteration by identifying alliteration in W. Auden's poem 'The Age of Anxiety.' . Eighth Stop: Positively Groovy Appositives: From the Purdue Online Writing Laboratory, students read about appositives and appositive phrases and complete a short exercise. The exercise is important to Beowulf because the epic is written in appositional style, meaning it is full of appositives and appositive phrases. Ninth Stop: Good Night, Brave Beowulf: Eulogizing a Fallen Hero: It's only fitting that we end our journey through the stations with the final tribute to Beowulf as students learn about the eulogy, lamenting, and elegies.The automatic slide presentation here shows both students working together and some of their work during the activity:Following this section is a detailed section about each of the stops listed above.
Within each section teachers will find'. A detailed explanation of each stop. Resources for each stop. Student examples and and images.Remember: The teacher can use each section as a stand-alone lesson or in combination w/ any of the others. This is a very flexible lesson! The study of Beowulf isn't too early for students to begin considering the impact of British Colonialism on the rest of the world.
Students, however, tended to think they could only base their response on the document I provided. I asked several groups if they could think of any positive contributions from Great Britain. They gave me a 'deer in the headlight' look. I suggested that they think about the British Invasion. I then mentioned music-The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, Lorde-and they begin to see my point. I suggested that we owe the Brits much for their contribution to music, theater, and literature.
Since alliteration is so important to Beowulf and a relatively easy rhetorical device to use when playing with language, I wanted to see if students could work with alliteration in a text other than Beowulf. Some needed a brief refresher about alliteration referring to sounds and not letters, and I was able to share with them the idea that college professors will often talk about vowel sounds alliterating in Old English as well as consonant sounds. I used the Auden poem ' because it is packed with alliteration. Shows one student's coded text. Beowulf is written in 'appositional style,' meaning the appositives and appositive phrases function both as a formulaic device in the poem and as a mnemonic for the Anglo Saxon poet, the scop.
Thus, having students work with appositives and reading about them is very fitting to Beowulf. The students actually work well in small grammar groups. The document with the colored arrows is from the Purdue OWL.
I like the way it color codes and visualizes appositives. I asked students to complete a short exercise independently and to work together to build sentences with appositives.
