<br/><br/> "Beowulf: an Anglo-Saxon poem. II. The fight at Finnsburh: a fragment" is an Old English epic poem composed between the 8th and 11th centuries. This cornerstone of Germanic heroic legend tells of Beowulf, a Geatish warrior who travels to Denmark to battle the monstrous Grendel terrorizing King Hrothgar's mead hall. After defeating Grendel and his vengeful mother, Beowulf returns home triumphant. Fifty years later, now king, he faces his final challenge: a deadly dragon. Set in pagan Scandinavia, this alliterative masterpiece blends legend, myth, and history into an enduring tale of heroism and mortality. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
