The present work is a modest effort to reproduce approximately, in modern measures, the venerable epic, Beowulf. Approximately, I repeat; for a very close reproduction of Anglo-Saxon verse would, to a large extent, be prose to a modern ear.This work is addressed to two classes of readers. From both of these alike the translator begs sympathy and co-operation. The Anglo-Saxon scholar he hopes to please by adhering faithfully to the original. The student of English literature he aims to interest by giving him, in modern garb, the most ancient epic of our race. This is a bold and venturesome undertaking; and yet there must be some students of the Teutonic past willing to follow even a daring guide, if they may read in modern phrases of the sorrows of Hrothgar, of the prowess of Beowulf, and of the feelings that stirred the hearts of our forefathers in their primeval homes.

Beowulf is an Old English epic poem about a heroic warrior going into battle against a terrifying monster. It is considered to be one of the most important works in the history of English literature and has influenced almost all fantasy authors of the modern era, including J. R. R. Tolkien and C. S. Lewis. This translation of Beowulf into modern English by John Lesslie Hall gives by both young and old readers a chance to enjoy the classic story.
