The latest generation of titles in this series also features glossaries and visual elements that complement the classic, familiar format. CliffsNotes on Beowulf takes you into the epic story of warriors and strange beasts. Beowulf is considered to be the longest and greatest surviving Anglo-Saxon poem. Some see it as an early celebration of Christianity. Others think it extols – or perhaps condemns – heroic values. Step into this epic poem and get ready for sword fights, feasts, and treasures. With this study guide, you’ll be able to follow all of the action as you consider the artistic impact of the work. You'll also gain insight into the characteristics of the unknown poet and the manuscript itself. Other features that help you study include - Character analyses of major players

These Cliff note are excellent...I bought them with Seamus Heaney's translation. Last time I read Beowulf was 50 years ago... it was terrific to buy the CN and for a buck extra be able to download them on my computer immediately. At 76 years old I don't have time to futz around.
