One of the oldest and most significant works of Western Literature, the epic poem Beowulf survives from ca.

It is rare for a medieval resource, perhaps especially an Anglo-Saxon resource, in that it is widely known and cited by researchers working outside its editor's home period (e.g. Earhart ; Pierazzo ; Dahlström ; Currall and Moss ; Kirschenbaum ). This volume reprints Kiernan's earlier study of the manuscript, in which he presented his novel conclusions about the date of Beowulf. It also offers a new Introduction in which the author describes the value of electronic study of Beowulf, and a new Appendix that lists all the letters and parts of letters revealed by backlighting.
